Capable advocate seeks compensation for motor vehicle accident victims
Car and truck accidents can leave the injured victims permanently and irreversibly altered. Unfortunately, the liable driver’s insurance provider will often do everything possible to downplay the fault of their client and try to settle for a minuscule amount. Preserving key evidence of the accident scene is essential to proving your case, and waiting to contact a personal injury attorney could negatively affect the outcome. I understand how important a positive result is in your case and will protect your rights throughout every step of your cases, whether it ends with an award or settlement.
Experienced INJURY ATTORNEY knows how to prove fault in vehicle rollover cases
Collisions with enough force to rotate or turn a vehicle upside down are considered rollover accidents, and death and severe injury are often the result. Proving why these accidents happened can be complex. Weather conditions, taking a curve too fast and erratic maneuvers by high-profile vehicles are all connected with rollovers, and establishing liability often comes down to thorough accident reports, detailed eyewitness statements and meticulous accident reconstructions. I have extensive experience with rollover cases and know how to present cohesive and convincing arguments in court.
Accomplished INDY INJURY lawyer assists families IN wrongful death claims
Losing a loved one unexpectedly and unnecessarily is hard to bear, and families in this situation may have the right to financial compensation if the death was caused by someone else’s negligence or an intentional act. Indiana gives the decedent’s personal representative two years to file a wrongful death claim, and damages for hospital expenses, funeral costs, lost income the deceased would have made and lost benefits may be recoverable. I understand how difficult these cases can be and will tirelessly pursue the compensation your family needs to move forward.
Competitive law firm litigates traumatic brain injury cases
Blindness, comas and physical/mental disabilities are just a few examples of the consequences of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), and treatment is often intensive, long-term and expensive. Car accidents, slip-and-falls and motorcycle accidents are common sources of brain injuries, and you need an attorney with experience litigating these highly complex claims. I have 38 years of experience helping injury victims and will work to get you just compensation that covers the unique expenses involved with e TBI, such as permanent rehabilitative care.
