Sometimes life reminds us just how much we take for granted. The simple things we enjoy doing. Quality time with the people we care about. When these things are taken away we realize how precious they are. That is what your personal injury case is "worth." We never forget this and channel these thoughts into a zealous pursuit of justice for you. As part of that commitment, an experienced personal injury attorney will personally handle your case from start to finish.
You will never be handed off to a newbie or unlicensed "negotiator." Home and hospital visits are available. If you prefer or feel safer meeting remotely, we can meet speak on the phone and/or meet remotely. An office visit is not required. We do not get paid until you do. We handle personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis. That means you never pay an attorney fee unless and until the case is resolved in your favor and you receive monetary compensation for your injuries.
Any claim, no matter how meritorious, must be initiated in court by filing and proper legal service of process before the applicable statute of limitations runs.
