Defective Drug
Prescription drugs treat diabetes, heart disease, depression, social anxiety disorders, and many other medical conditions. Regrettably, sometimes the drugs used to treat patients can do more harm than good. The drugs may not work effectively at treating the condition and, even worse, they may cause unexpected side effects or significant harm to the patients who took the prescribed medicine. When dangerous drugs cause injury, the manufacturers and drug companies must be held responsible.

Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a hospital, doctor or other health care professional, through a negligent act or omission, causes an injury to a patient. The negligence might be the result of errors in diagnosis, treatment, aftercare or health management. Unfortunately, medical records are challenging to understand. If you or a family member was injured as a result of medical negligence, you should know what happened and why it happened.

Premises Liability
Premises liability occurs when a property owner fails to provide a reasonably safe premises and their failure to do so caused you injuries. To prevail on a premises liability case, the injured person must prove that the property owner failed to meet the standard of care with respect to ownership or maintenance of the property, which caused harm. Suffering an injury alone on someone else’s property does not mean that the property owner was negligent. The existence of an unsafe condition alone does not mean that the property owner was negligent. You must show that the property owner knew or should reasonably have known that the premises was in an unsafe condition, failed to take proper steps to make the premises safe, and that you were injured as a result.

A slip and fall accident occurs when a property owner fails to provide a reasonably safe premises and their failure to do so caused you injuries.

Workers’ Compensation
Every occupation carries some risk of injury, whether from an accident on the job, the strain of repetitive motions, or occupational exposure to chemicals and other hazardous substances. Workers’ compensation insurance provides a valuable safety net for individuals who suffer work-related injuries or illness. This insurance coverage includes medical expenses and a portion of lost wages for employees who become injured or ill on the job as well as employee rehabilitation and death benefits.

Wrongful Death
Wrongful death claims require special skills to pursue because these claims are controlled by statute. In the past, a person who had been seriously injured but lived would be able to recover significant compensation for his or her economic or non-economic losses from the at-fault party, but no one could recover should the victim pass away due to his or her injuries. States have since passed laws to allow certain family members of people who have been wrongfully killed, or the decedent’s estate, to pursue recovery for their losses.
