Frequently Asked Questions

Our most common inquiries are answered below.

  • What should I do after a car accident if I want to file a personal injury claim?

    After a car accident, always seek medical attention first, even if you feel fine. Document the scene by taking photos, gather contact details from witnesses, and get a copy of the police report. Notify your insurance company, but avoid making detailed statements until you have spoken with a lawyer. Our team can help you assess your claim, negotiate with insurance adjusters, and file paperwork correctly.

  • How does a medical malpractice lawyer evaluate if I have a case?

    Our medical malpractice lawyer will review your medical records, consult with medical experts, and investigate whether your care fell below accepted standards, resulting in harm. We focus on cases involving significant or lasting injury. If negligence can be proven, you may be entitled to damages. Our team guides you through each step and explains your options clearly.

  • Can I get help with workers’ compensation claims?

    Yes, we represent injured workers who need help filing or appealing workers’ compensation claims. If you suffered an injury at work, we can guide you through the process, help you complete forms, and advocate for benefits such as medical care and lost wages. If your claim has been denied or delayed, we will fight to protect your rights.

  • What legal options are available if I am facing foreclosure?

    If you are facing foreclosure, there are several strategies we can pursue together. Our team explores loan modification, bankruptcy, short sales, deeds in lieu, and negotiations with lenders.
