O ur areas of practice include any incident where an innocent party has been injured or killed by another person or entity. We litigate mass torts as well as individual lawsuits, and we are experienced in all types of accidents and injuries. Our strongest areas are drug claims, product injury cases and medical device lawsuits, but we can also help clients with cases such as personal injury, wrongful death and birth injury. Some of the cases we accept include:

 

 


Area's Of Practice

Personal Injury

Personal injury cases can involve either physical injury or death and are generally caused by accidents or product failures that are the result of another person’s negligence. Birth injuries may occur during pregnancy, delivery or immediately after birth, and they are often directly attributable to actions performed by the medical personnel handling the birth. Our personal injury attorneys believe that in all of these cases, the people responsible for the injuries should be held accountable.

Vehicle Accident Cases

Many cases we handle involve injuries caused by vehicles. Our lawyers are equipped to handle all types of vehicular accidents, including boating accidents, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, trucking accidents and cruise ship accidents. Many of these cases require vehicle-specific considerations; for example, the rules concerning truck drivers aren’t the same as those pertaining to motorcycle drivers, and the laws for the water are different than those for the road. Our truck accident, boating accident, car accident and motorcycle accident attorneys are well-versed in the laws related to particular cases.

Birth Injuries

While the act of giving birth on its own can be very stressful, a birth injury can be devastating. Birth injuries have the potential to affect both the parents and the child for the rest of the child’s life. Birth injuries are often due to circumstances that cannot be controlled, but in some cases they occur because of mistakes made by the medical specialists handling the birth.

Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice cases are some of the most difficult in the legal industry. They can be extremely complex and difficult to prove, and require extensive knowledge of state and national laws. Our law office has widespread experience in medical malpractice suits. We have been trying these cases for more than half a century. We understand that doctors can be negligent, hasty and incompetent, and that this can bring about anything from improper medications to infertility and even death. With the help of our medical malpractice lawyers, careless doctors can be stopped and patients can get the compensation they deserve.

Wrongful Death Suits

When an individual dies due to the negligence, malice or recklessness of another person, it can cause tremendous emotional suffering and serious financial strain for those left behind. In these cases, the departed person’s family is entitled to compensation. This not only serves to help family members through the financial burdens caused by the death, but it also provides an avenue through which the person responsible for the death can be held responsible. However, it can be difficult for the average person to determine who is eligible to collect damages and to ensure that they receive the full sum for which they are qualified. In these situations, wrongful death attorneys can be invaluable.

Unpaid Overtime

Federal laws require that any non-exempt individual who works more than 40 hours a week should be paid time and a half for their services, and yet many employers fail to follow this rule. This can bring about financial and emotional stress for individuals who experience it. If you have worked overtime and not been adequately paid, our unpaid overtime attorneys can help you resolve the issue.
