Practice Areas

Have you ever heard the old saying, 'A jack of all trades, and a master of none?' Hiring an attorney is an important decision, so make sure that the attorney you select has experience in your specific type of issue or case.

Our litigation practice is focused on the following types of cases. If you need a lawyer, contact us for a complimentary evaluation of your case.

Medical Malpractice and Brain Injury

According to a 2000 study by the National Institute of Medicine, as many as 98,000 Americans die and another million people are injured each year by preventable medical errors.

When you go to a hospital or doctor for treatment, you are placing your life in their hands and trust them to know what they are doing. The law requires hospitals, doctors, and nurses to be competent and responsible for following national standards of care—and when they do not follow those rules, and a patient is injured or killed because of it, there has been medical malpractice.

A medical malpractice claim can be brought by an injured patient, or the surviving family members of a person who was killed as a result of medical malpractice, against any healthcare provider, including hospitals, doctors, nurses, psychologists and psychotherapists.

We have represented clients in litigation involving a broad swath of medical negligence, including babies who suffer permanent brain damage from birth-related negligence, brain injuries, surgical malpractice, improper dialysis care, anesthesia-related malpractice and many others.

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death

When someone has been injured by another party’s negligence or wrongful act, then you may have a personal injury claim. When another party’s negligence takes someone’s life, then there may be a wrongful death claim. Individuals or businesses may be the cause of a personal injury or wrongful death, and the law allows them to be held accountable in court.

Personal injury and wrongful death claims may arise from medical malpractice, work injuries, explosions, serious car wrecks and dangerous or defective projects, just to name a few. We have represented personal injury and wrongful death clients in numerous types of cases, including pipeline explosions, defective products, pharmaceutical/drug defects, bad surgical devices and many others.
