Wrongful Death

Wrongful death is a term used to describe a death caused by the negligence, recklessness, malpractice or inaction of another person. In some cases, the family or beneficiary of the decedent can file a personal injury lawsuit on behalf of a loved one. These lawsuits help the family recover from the losses they incurred due to the wrongful death of their loved one.

Personal Injury

If you have been seriously injured due to the recklessness or negligence of another person, you may be entitled to compensation for the damages you sustained. Negligence is conduct by an individual, business or government entity that is unreasonable under the circumstances and that causes harm.

Employment Law

If an employer has done anything to compromise the employment laws set forth by both State and Federal Government, you as an employee, are entitled to defend your civil rights by seeking the advice of a credible attorney. Employment law clearly states that any form of employment discrimination is illegal.

Truck Accidents

A great percentage of auto accidents include large trucks. A large truck has a weight of over 10,000 pounds. Auto accidents that involve large trucks are more likely to cause severe injuries, even fatalities. This is due to the truck’s weight and size. Big rigs, 18 wheelers, and trailers can weigh in excess of 80,000 pounds. If they collide with an automobile, fatal injuries are likely. Statistics show that 10% of the parties involved in truck accidents will die. Many times, truck accidents include multiple vehicles, whereas car accidents tend to be more one-on-one. This is yet another reason that truck accidents are so severe in nature.

Product Liability

Products liability refers to the responsibility of all parties along the chain of manufacture of any product for any damages that are caused by that product. This includes the manufacturer of a product’s parts, assembling manufacturer, the wholesaler, and the retailer. The manufacturer of the product’s components is generally at the top of this chain and the retailer tends to be at the bottom. Products that are inherently defective can cause harm to the consumer of the product. Typically, products are considered personal property, but products liability has expanded that definition to include things such as gas, pets, homes, and even writings (e.g. maps).

Auto Accidents

If you become involved in an auto accident, you should call the police immediately, even if it appears that no injuries were sustained by either party. The police will create an auto accident report which will be useful when the insurance company has to determine fault. You will also want to seek out the help of a medical professional, despite the fact that there may not be any obvious physical injuries. Claims for damages resulting from injuries incurred during the accident usually depend on medical records, which must link the injuries to the accident. If you wait too long to seek treatment, it will be difficult to prove your injuries were a direct result of the car accident.
