Strategic attorney handles car wreck, product liability and medical negligence cases

We are glad to discuss with you any legal question you have and hopefully will be of some help to you. However, we principally focus our practice on:

CAR WRECKS

A wreck can involve one, two or any number of vehicles. These collisions might include a car, truck, motorcycle, commercial vehicle, golf cart or some other type of transportation. Whatever happens, we work quickly and comprehensively to:

• Get the wreck report
• Discuss the wreck and injuries with all available sources
• Identify and maximize ALL insurance sources, which can include the defendant’s liability insurance and your own car policy, which could have uninsured motorist and medical payments coverage. Health insurance, whether private or provided by the government, can be very helpful
• Obtain all medical records and bills
• Secure all important case evidence, which can sometimes be a simple wreck report, and can sometimes be the wrecked vehicles themselves
• Maximize the recovery for you in a personal injury claim, utilizing all of the above

Sometimes, a wreck will also involve medical negligence and/or product liability.

PRODUCT LIABILITY

Any unreasonably dangerous product could cause injury and be the basis for a product liability case. We have handled cases involving something as small as a wing nut and as large as a tractor-trailer rig, along with everything in-between.

In regard to dangerous products, you must:

• Save and record the dangerous product
• Document and record all witness statements
• Obtain and study all medical records
• Ensure that all the bills are gathered and paid by the available insurance
• Inspect the product and hire the required experts. These might include metallurgists, industry professionals, electrical and mechanical engineers, chemists and human factors experts
• Identify, notify and, if necessary, file suit against the proper defendant. The defendant could be as close as the neighboring county or as far as the other side of the world. We’ve done both and everything in between

MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE OR MEDICAL MALPRACTICE

Medical negligence or medical malpractice occurs when a doctor, nurse or any medical provider does something wrong. Honestly, most of the time when there has been a bad medical result, after looking deeply into the facts, it turns out there was no medical malpractice involved. We will find out and explain whether it was or was not medical malpractice.

If you have a case, we must:

• Obtain all of the records and radiology films. Sometimes, it is even necessary to obtain records from before the event
• Study the records, films, medical literature and guidelines, sometimes across several board specialties, and determine what happened, whether it was malpractice and what experts are necessary to prove it
• Obtain the proper experts. This is an area of law where going forward requires an expert in the beginning. Otherwise, the case could be thrown out
• Be sure to name the proper defendants because there can be many names on a 1,000 page medical report. Figuring out all of the providers and their input is imperative
• File suit and depose all of the people involved. A medical deposition is not a simple matter, and it takes experience to conduct one effectively

For any type of claim, the sooner you engage our firm for your case, the more quickly we can work to secure the money you’re entitled to under the law. Don’t let negligent businesses or individuals off the hook. We are here to assist you at every stage of your legal matter.
