Our firm has extensive experience representing people injured by:

  • Dangerous drugs, devices, medications

Firm Roots

Our law firm was founded in 1985 by an attorney who had a prior career working for a big railroad company.  He suffered an on-the-job injury that prematurely ended his railroad career. This prompted him to attend law school and focus on representing people who were seriously injured in accidents. As you can see, our firm not only sympathizes with you but works tirelessly to get your life back on track after suffering a serious bodily injury.

Experience with Complex Cases Involving Large Corporations

We have represented thousands of clients in cases where the defendant is a well-funded, big company. These cases are akin to David taking on Goliath, which is why you need top-notch personal injury representation. We are not afraid to take these big companies to court and hold them accountable for their wrongdoing and indifference to public safety.

For example, our firm secured a $2.5 million wrongful death jury verdict in a case involving a defective lawn mower that exploded while it was being operated. We also secured a $750,000 settlement for a factory worker who had his hand mangled and later needed to have his thumb amputated because of a defective device. No matter the size of the defendant, we can help.

What Makes Our Personal Injury Law Firm Different

Our firm is known for personal service.  Have you ever felt like just a number?  Part of a cattle call?  You won’t feel like that with the attorney at our firm. We decided years ago that it was important to distinguish ourselves from the competition.  We have worked very hard at building our reputation and pride ourselves on it.

When you choose an attorney to handle your case, think about this – most big firms handle thousands of cases and you will be just one of thousands.  Most big firms have paralegals that handle the bulk of the work involved in an MDL (multi-district litigation), Class Action, or product liability case.

This is what makes our firm different – you will have an actual lawyer fighting for you and someone who you can contact when you have questions or concerns. Our firm does not operate like most firms. With us, you will be treated like a person.  We will know your name.  We will know what happened to you.  We will tell you what is going on with your case whenever you want to know.

Litigation can be scary.  There is a reason why certain people do well as lawyers and certain people would rather not ever see the inside of a courtroom, much less address a jury.  Every personal injury lawyer here does not fear the courtroom.  We fight for our clients and trust the jury system.

We may not advertise on TV, but that is a choice we made consciously. We’re not focused on fancy commercials with explosions and paid celebrity endorsements. Our work speaks for itself – check our case results and our lawyers’ achievements.  If you want to be represented by someone who knows you and someone who cares, call us.  You won’t be disappointed.
