We can provide legal help with:

Car Accidents

A car wreck can lead to multiple forms of bodily harm for a driver or passengers. Whether a crash involved a rear-end accident in heavy traffic, a distracted driver causing a T-bone collision when running a red light, or a high-speed head-on collision involving drunk driving, our attorney can help victims recover compensation from the driver who was responsible.

Truck Accidents

When 18-wheelers and other commercial vehicles are involved in collisions, they can cause significant damage to other vehicles and serious injuries to multiple people. Truck accident cases may involve multiple parties, including trucking companies, vehicle manufacturers, and third-party logistics providers. Our lawyer can help establish liability and secure compensation in truck wrecks involving issues such as driver fatigue, violations of trucking regulations, or dropped cargo.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are more likely to be seriously injured in collisions. Motorcycle accidents may be caused by drivers who fail to yield or who do not see motorcycles in their blind spots. Our attorney works with injured motorcycle riders to ensure that negligent drivers will be held responsible for the injuries and damages they have suffered.

Pedestrian Accidents

When drivers fail to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, or when they drive recklessly near sidewalks or intersections, they may cause devastating injuries. A pedestrian accident victim may suffer severe bodily harm or permanent disabilities. Our lawyer can help gather the evidence needed to demonstrate that driver negligence was responsible for a pedestrian accident, including witness statements or surveillance footage. We will work to ensure that injury victims can receive the compensation they need to make a full recovery.

Rideshare Accidents

People who are involved in Uber or Lyft accidents may encounter complications as they determine what insurance coverage applies and who may be held responsible. Whether the injured person was a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian, liability in rideshare cases may involve both the driver's personal insurance and the rideshare company's policies. Our attorney can advocate on behalf of rideshare accident victims to ensure that they receive the proper coverage, and we can also determine whether legal action may be taken against Uber, Lyft, or another company.

Defective Products

When manufacturers, distributors, or retailers are responsible for allowing unsafe products to be sold or distributed to consumers, they can be held liable for the injuries caused by these products. Defective product cases may involve faulty auto parts, unsafe appliances, contaminated foods, or other items that caused people to suffer injuries. Our lawyer can work with engineers or product safety experts to demonstrate that a manufacturer or other party was responsible for a victim's injuries.

Catastrophic Injuries

Life-altering injuries, such as paralysis, severe burns, amputations, or brain injuries, can affect victims in many ways. The costs of ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, home modifications, and personal care can be significant. A victim may also experience emotional trauma or other issues that can affect their life. Our attorney can help victims of catastrophic injuries take steps to recover the full compensation they deserve.

Wrongful Death

When a fatal injury occurs because of someone's negligence or wrongful actions, family members may pursue a wrongful death claim to recover damages for funeral costs, loss of companionship, lost financial support, and other damages they have suffered. These cases can be emotionally complex, and our lawyer can provide compassionate legal representation to make sure the responsible parties will be held accountable.
