Personal injury cases arise when the negligence of another person causes injuries. Personal injury cases are challenging from a legal standpoint, as well as a personal standpoint. A broken arm from a car or motorcycle accident, for example, has a vastly different effect on an office worker than a construction worker, or even between the parent of an infant versus the parent of a teenager. Depending on where you are in life, an injury from accidents or defective products can be an inconvenience, or a life-altering financial or personal catastrophe.

Personal injury cases are difficult because they take time. Your case cannot be moved to resolution until you have recovered as fully as the injury allows. Depending on the severity of the personal injury, this can take months or years. This waiting period is very frustrating, particularly if your finances have been thrown into disarray by lost wages. During your recovery, I gather information from every source possible about what happened to cause your injury. As lawyers, we are very thorough so I can be fully prepared for the next step - negotiating with the other party's insurance company - as soon as your recovery is complete.

If you've been charged with DUI or a criminal offense, you are faced with a broad range of possible outcomes. You could be acquitted, or end up entering into a plea agreement, that results in no jail time. Conversely, you could be convicted, and sentenced to serve time in a state prison, or your resolution could fall somewhere in between. Having a criminal defense lawyer to guide you through the legal process is vital. I will advocate for your rights.

The criminal justice system is designed to give you a chance to get back on the right track after your first offense. To take full advantage of this second chance, it's important to start taking steps immediately to ensure that your first offense will be your last offense. If you have been charged with DUI, enroll in a substance abuse treatment program, even if you don't feel like you have a problem. Find transportation so you can keep your job. Stay in school. Show that you are taking responsibility and are taking action to avoid becoming a repeat offender.

If you're involved in a criminal investigation, do not speak to law enforcement without a criminal defense lawyer present, even if you haven't done anything wrong. Your lawyer is your guide through the legal system, and will have valuable advice about the options available to you.

Sometimes people are overcharged by the police with multiple misdemeanors and felonies added on. Your lawyer serves as the go-between, negotiating with the District Attorney's office to eliminate extra charges and work out a resolution. I have a good relationship with the District Attorney's office, and our experience gives us unique insight into the possibilities available in terms of dismissed charges and sentencing.

A dispute with your auto insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance company can turn into a financial catastrophe if you are unable to work, or if your home or business has been badly damaged. The bills keep rolling in, but the money doesn't.

In a Bad Faith case, your insurance company deliberately or recklessly misleads the policyholder. The law allows a policyholder who's benefits have been denied without a reasonable basis to recover not only the policy proceeds, but also attorney fees, interest, and punitive damages.

Your insurance company has insurance claim lawyers working for them, and you should too. It helps to level the playing field. We have experience on both sides of insurance disputes, which gives us a unique point of view on how to navigate your case to the best possible resolution.
