FAQs
Find answers to common questions about personal injury law and our services.
A personal injury is any harm—physical or emotional—that happens to you because of someone else’s careless or wrongful actions. This could include things like:
- Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
- Slips, trips, or falls
- Nail Salon Injuries
- Home accidents
- Medical mistakes
If you’ve been hurt and it wasn’t your fault, there’s a good chance it counts as a personal injury.
You might be entitled to compensation if you’ve experienced physical pain, emotional stress, missed work, or unexpected medical bills due to your injury. Each case is different, but common types of compensation include:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Ongoing treatment or therapy
We’ll help you understand what kind of recovery is possible.
Some things can weaken your claim, such as:
- Talking to the insurance company without a lawyer
- Minimizing or overstating your injuries
- Posting about the accident on social media
- Delaying medical care
The best way to avoid missteps is to speak with us early. We’re here to guide you.
Your case value depends on many factors: the seriousness of your injuries, how long recovery takes, and how your life is affected. You may be able to recover for:
- Medical bills (past and future)
- Time missed at work
- Long-term health effects
- Pain and emotional suffering
We can help estimate a fair range once we know more about your situation.
Not before we review it. Insurance companies aim to settle quickly and for as little as possible. Once you accept an offer, you can’t go back and ask for more. Let us look it over to make sure it covers everything you deserve.
You deserve someone on your side who knows the system and can fight for what’s fair. A personal injury attorney helps protect your rights, makes sure the paperwork is handled properly, and advocates for the best outcome—so you can focus on healing.
Look for someone experienced, responsive, and genuinely invested in your story. Ask questions. Make sure they explain things clearly. At our office, you’ll always be heard and supported.
The best way is to seek medical care, document everything, and get legal advice early. We’ll help you gather what you need and make sure you don’t settle for less than you deserve.
If you’ve been injured because someone else didn’t act responsibly, you might have a case. Every situation is different, but we can help you figure it out. It starts with a conversation—we'll listen to your story and walk you through your options.
There are legal deadlines, called statutes of limitations, which limit how long you have to file a claim. These vary depending on where the injury happened and what kind of case it is. The safest move? Talk to an attorney as soon as you can so your rights are protected.
It depends. Some cases settle in a few months; others can take longer, especially if they go to court. What matters most is making sure your medical treatment is complete and we fully understand your future needs. We won’t rush a case at the cost of your wellbeing.
You might still be able to recover money even if you were partially responsible. Every situation is unique, but the law often allows you to be compensated based on the other party’s level of fault. Let’s talk it through together.
If you're in an accident, take a breath and focus on these steps:
- Call the police and get medical help if needed
- Get names, contact info, and insurance details from all drivers
- Take photos of the vehicles, injuries, and scene
- Talk to witnesses and get their info
- Write down what happened while it’s fresh
- Contact your insurance company to report the accident
- Get checked by a doctor, even if you feel okay
Then, call us. We’ll take it from there.
As soon as you can. The sooner we can gather evidence, speak to witnesses, and understand your medical care, the better we can build your case.
Compensatory damages are meant to help you recover from the harm you’ve experienced—like medical bills or emotional distress. Punitive damages are rare but may be awarded if the other party’s behavior was especially harmful or reckless.
We work on a contingency fee basis—that means you don’t pay anything upfront. We only get paid if you win your case. It’s that simple.
