We are the attorney of choice for many victims of negligence and wrongdoing nationwide, we are the legal partner of choice when other personal injury attorneys are creating a collaborative team, and we are an employer of choice for legal professionals. Our firm’s culture is one of high performance and excellence, combined with respect for each other and our clients.
Our team of experienced personal injury attorneys have decades of experience and are highly skilled at managing personal injury cases and securing justice for the injured person or family members in many types of cases such as workplace accidents; auto accidents, truck accidents or motorcycle accidents, traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury, a wrongful death case. We understand how to obtain medical records, review medical bills, work with insurance companies, determine who the responsible parties are, identify expert witnesses and succeed at trial or in mediation.
