What types of cases do you handle?
We handle a wide range of personal injury cases, including car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip and fall accidents (premises liability), medical malpractice, wrongful death claims, dog bites, and workplace injuries (excluding workers’ compensation, which is a separate area).
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
If we don’t win, you don’t owe us. We typically work on a contingency fee basis. This means that you don’t pay any upfront fees. Our fees are a percentage of the final settlement or court award we obtain for you. If we don’t win your case, you don’t owe us any attorney fees. You may still be responsible for certain costs associated with your case, but we will discuss this with you upfront.. We typically work on a contingency fee basis.

How do I know if I have a personal injury case?
Generally, you may have a case if you were injured due to someone else’s fault (negligence, recklessness, or intentional act), and you have suffered damages as a result (e.g., medical expenses, lost income, pain). The best way to determine if you have a viable case is to speak with an attorney for a free consultation.
What kind of compensation can I recover in a personal injury case?
Depending on the specifics of your case, you may be able to recover compensation for:
- Medical expenses (past, present, and future)
- Lost wages (past and future)
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Property damage
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Punitive damages (in cases involving egregious conduct)
What can I expect during the legal process?
The legal process can vary depending on the complexity of your case. Generally, it involves an initial consultation, investigation, gathering evidence, demand letter, negotiation with the insurance company, and potentially filing a lawsuit and going to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We will guide you through each step and explain what to expect.
Will I have to go to court?
Many personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiation with the insurance company. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, it may be necessary to file a lawsuit and proceed to trial. We will prepare you thoroughly if your case goes to court.
