In most circumstances, if one person causes injury to another, the law holds that person responsible for the injuries they cause. If you have been injured or someone you love has died because of the recklessness of another, the law provides that you should be compensated for your loss... your lost income, medical bills, as well as “non-economic” losses such as disfigurement, loss of self-esteem, pain and suffering and emotional trauma. Although financial compensation cannot heal your injuries, money can help to address the economic consequences of the injury.

Types of Serious Personal InjuriesWe represent people who have been injured or killed in serious motor vehicle accidents whether the accident involves trucks, cars or motorcycles. We represent people burned or killed in gas explosions. Our attorneys have experience handling cases involving catastrophic injuries such as:
We have also handled many wrongful death lawsuits, brought on behalf of the families of people who are killed through the negligence of others. We have experience handling all of these cases, including experience dealing with experts, insurance defense attorneys, mediators, and experience in the court room. Although some plaintiffs' attorneys rarely handle trials, Trey and Ryan are never out of practice. They are in court trying civil and criminal cases almost every week. We have represented clients who were paralyzed as a result of their injuries as well as clients who lost limbs. We do not handle "soft-tissue" injury cases so that we can focus on very significant injury cases. Contact an experienced trial lawyer for your serious personal injury claim immediately... don't wait.The moments after a catastrophic injury are crucial to the case. The insurance company will begin their investigation immediately. Certain kinds of evidence may grow stale or even disappear later, e.g. witnesses may move or forget details, and we may need to have them interviewed while their memory is clear. We will secure a team of experts for your defenseGetting experts involved and getting them involved early can oftentimes be the difference in winning or losing a case. In many types of injury cases, we work with investigators to determine liability. We hire accident reconstruction experts who photograph, measure and map the scene, talk with witnesses, and review accident reports. We have hired building code experts who identify code violations. We may also consult with economists, life care planners, medical experts and vocational experts who calculate the actual cost of client injuries. Although the statute of limitations may not expire for a year or more in some cases, it is important to consult with an attorney immediately... even while you are recovering in the hospital. Considering the case may not be resolved through a settlement or a jury for years, it may be important to document your injury in the early days with video. A jury may have difficulty understanding what you went through three years later unless this kind of evidence is available. Quite frankly, you may not remember everything you went through later or you may not be able to explain it very easily to others either because of the medications or because the experience is simply too difficult to explain in words. We sometimes hire video producers to build a strong case by filming the early struggles to build a strong case from the very beginning. Put these resources at your disposal.
