Juvenile Law
When children have legal problems, they need an attorney who not only knows the law but also understands the needs of the child. We have been representing the needs of children accused of crimes since 1970, and find that the needs for quality legal representation of our youngest citizens are on the increase. Call us if your child is being investigated or has been arrested for a crime.
Personal Injury & Wrongful Death
Since 1970, we have represented individuals who have suffered serious bodily injuries or death due to the negligence of others. In this pursuit, we have recovered maximum funds to compensate our clients.
We seek compensation for our injured clients whether they were injured due to the negligence of an automobile or truck driver, an injury caused by nuisance or premises liability, or injuries produced by medical or dental negligence or a defective product.
Examples of Cases and Recoveries for our clients
Due to the privacy rights of my clients, no names are disclosed and because the facts of each case differs from the next, recovery amounts will differ, so disclosure of recovery amounts might be misleading and that is not our intention.
