Prescription Drug Injuries

Occasionally drug manufacturers release drugs to the market or fail to recall drugs from the market, even after they become aware of possible harmful or fatal side effects. If you have suffered due to harmful prescription drugs, please call us.

Pharmacy & Nursing Errors

After the loss of a loved one, the last thing the family wants to think about is taking legal action. But in many cases, prompt action is required to investigate the circumstances and to preserve evidence. Waiting to retain legal counsel can be damaging to any future claims.

There is a shortage of properly trained pharmacists and nurses at this time.

Unfortunately, this means that some pharmacists and nurses are pressured to work longer hours and provide patient care for longer periods of time than ever before. This situation can lead to disastrous results if a prescription is incorrectly filled, or the nurse makes a medication or medical error. Oftentimes, the wrong medicine is prescribed, or the incorrect dosage is administered by overworked and exhausted healthcare workers.

Either way, the effect can render the improper administration of drugs or an improper medical procedure can be lethal.

While nurses and pharmacists are an essential part of our medical system, no healthcare worker should be permitted to work excessive work hours endangering the health, safety, and welfare of patients.

Nurses and other health care professionals must meet minimum standards of care in performing their duties. When nurses fail to meet this standard and cause injuries, they must be held accountable. If you believe you or a family member have been injured as a result of nursing negligence, call us for an appointment to discuss your situation.

Premises Liability

This category of personal injury claims includes such matters as inadequate/negligent security, but by far the most common claim is the "Slip and Fall" type of injury.

The law in this field is very much on the side of the property owner. The burden of proof is on the injured person to prove that the property owner either caused the dangerous condition or knew about it and failed to take appropriate action to warn the injured person. This can be a difficult burden to meet.

An immediate investigation is extremely important, and it is extremely helpful to get the names of any witnesses. Photographs of the location of the incident are often key to a successful financial recovery.

Our firm has handled hundreds of premises liability cases over the years, resulting in the recovery of millions of dollars for our clients and their family members.

Inadequate/Negligent Security Claims

Inadequate/Negligent security cases usually involve situations where innocent people are victims of a crime while on property owned by someone else. These claims can arise at hotels, apartments, convenience stores, shopping centers, or other business establishments. Under current law, an owner or operator of these premises may be responsible if the likelihood of criminal activity is "reasonably foreseeable."

These are often difficult cases and a thorough investigation is necessary for a successful recovery.

Dog Bite Injuries

Every year millions of Americans, mostly small children, are bitten by dogs. Fortunately, most of these bites are minor. However, some dog bite attacks by large dogs produce disfiguring or life-threatening injuries. 

In general, if the dog’s owner had reason to believe the dog was dangerous, or the dog is reasonably known to be of a dangerous or aggressive breed or did not take the necessary steps to protect innocent victims, the owner may be liable for injuries caused by the dog. If you or a family member has been injured by a dog attack, please call us to discuss your legal rights.

Other Incidents Involving Serious Injury or Loss of Life 

It is almost impossible to list the many ways injuries can occur due to the negligence or carelessness of others. 

We invite you to call us about any serious injury, and we will be glad to give you our opinion as to whether you have a legitimate claim.

Insurance Disputes

Our law firm has dealt with hundreds of insurance companies over the years and we are experienced in interpreting insurance policy provisions.

If you are having a problem collecting benefits you feel you are entitled to receive, call us for an appointment.
