While many law firms focus on high-volume representation - solving one isolated problem for a client as quickly as possible and moving on to another client - I take a different approach. At Atkinson Law, I focus on building lasting relationships with my clients. When you hire me as your attorney, I want you to feel confident that I have your immediate legal issue well in hand, and also that I will be available to help you down the road as other issues arise.
A strong client-centered focus: As the founding attorney of Atkinson Law, I left a position as a lawyer in a large volume law firm so that I could be in a better position to take care of my clients on a more personal level. I do not see a new client as a potential paycheck, but as a person who needs help with a challenging legal situation, and my priority is to help.
Knowledge: I have handled hundreds of cases, including courtroom trials for hundreds of clients, and I previously served as a public defender. I have extensive knowledge of personal injury law, dog bite law suits, elder / nursing home neglect, family law and other legal practice areas.

Few types of personal injury are more traumatic-and legally complex-than dog bites.
Even when the victim survives life can be very different with permanent scarring, loss of a limb or eye, or long-term psychological harm.
A victim has only one opportunity to get full compensation.
And if you, your child or another family member has suffered a dog bite, the owner should be held responsible for your medical bills, lost wages, scar revisions and other future surgery costs, pain and suffering and other legal damages.

If your child has been injured and you believe that negligence contributed to the injury, I can help you pursue maximum compensation.
While the insurance company may already be seeking a court-approved settlement, as the child's parent, you have a right to an attorney, and you do not have to settle.
I have experience handling personal injury claims on behalf of injured infants and children, and their parents.
It is important to make sure that all injuries are apparent and clearly understood.
Ideally, the injuries should be at "maximum medical improvement" before discussing settlement numbers.

Whether you were injured on the job, in a car accident, by a vicious dog, or a defective product, you are facing a swamp of confusion, delay and deception by insurance companies.
Trying to handle a claim on your own against the insurance companies is the long, slow road to nowhere.
Ask yourself this question: would you sign up for do-it-yourself surgery?
Of course not, and the same applies with personal injury, car accidents, dog bites etc.
A licensed attorney can ensure that you get the best outcome and the least hassle.
