• Personal Injury and Wrongful Death – Wrongful Death cases involve the negligence of one party and the accidental / wrongful death to another party. If a loved one was killed due to the negligence of another, the legal heirs may be entitled to compensation for their loss. Legal responsibility, called "liability", revolves around the simple fact that most injuries happen because someone was careless or "negligent". We handle serious personal injury and wrongful death claims. We have attained many insurance settlements and multi-million dollar awards on behalf of injured clients.
• Medical Malpractice – Every year in the United States more Americans are killed through medical negligence than die in auto accidents. Generally, when illness or injury forces you to visit a physician or go to the hospital, you can usually be assured that the doctor's years of experience and training will result in excellent treatment of your ailment. But in truth, physicians are only human, and as such errors are always possible. Cases involving birth injuries, brain injuries, emergency room errors, misdiagnosis, negligent treatment, failure to diagnose, surgical errors, obstetrical and gynecological malpractice, spinal cord injuries, paraplegia, and quadriplegia.

Injuries from falls, malnutrition, bedsores, gangrene, pneumonia, over-sedation, poor medical care, wrong medication, lack of supervision, abandonment, sexual assault, coersion, physical or mental abuse.
