Practice Areas Description

Our firm's specialties include:

- Personal Injury / Wrongful Death

Selecting the "right" lawyer is vital. You must look for experience in major lawsuits, a solid track record of results, financial resources to take on major defendants and a commitment to justice that is recognized by attorneys and the community. We know that our clients need a result that will last a lifetime because the spinal cord injuries, brain damage, amputations and burns last a lifetime or the loss of a loved family member never stops aching. Our goal is to make a substantial financial difference in lives of our clients and to restore, what has been taken from them.

- Car and Truck Accidents

If you have been seriously injured in a car or truck accident, it is vital that you know your rights before you speak with the insurance company. The insurance companies have nearly unlimited resources when it comes to fighting claims made against their drivers policies which is why know you rights before speaking to them is paramount. An attorney who specializes in California auto accidents can advise you of your rights and help you get the compensation you need to recover for your injuries. The San Francisco car accident attorneys at Alexander Hawes, LLP have a record of winning complex cases and obtaining maximum recoveries on behalf of their clients.

- Motorcycle Accidents

If you are struck by a car or truck while riding a motorcycle the chance of you being seriously injured is tripled. You are fourteen times more likely to be killed if you were driving your car and were in the same accident. Alexander Hawes, LLP has successfully represent motorcycle riders for years.

- Traumatic Brain Injury

To find the "right" lawyer for a brain injury claim you will want a law firm with substantial experience in trying major injury lawsuits, including brain injury claims, a solid track record of results against major defendants and insurance companies and a reputation for excellence recognized by attorneys and the community. Stay away from individual practitioners who lack the track record and financial ability to assure you will have state-of-the art evidence and the best liability, medical, lifecare planning and economic experts. Our experience, extraordinary resources and readiness have earned us a national reputation and a national practice representing clients in traumatic brain injury cases for more than 25 years.

- Spinal Cord Injuries

Years of representing survivors of spinal cord injuries has taught us that unless you are protected from the outset with full and complete advice on your rights under California's insurance laws, great lawyering skills are not going to make a significant difference for you when the insurance coverage is minimal compared to the harm inflicted.

- Burns

Nothing is more painful than a burn injury. On a scale of 1 to 10, it is an 11. The lives of survivors of gasoline and electrical burns are permanently changed. Separate from the amputations that many suffer, scarred skin from the burn and from donor sites requires daily attention. Heat and cold are constant problems and enjoying sunlight is no longer possible. Burned and scarred skin is older skin that breaks down and becomes more problematic with age. We have represented survivors of burns for more than 30 years. We can make a difference for you.

- Toxic Chemical Exposure and Birth Defects

If your child was exposed to chemicals during pregnancy, you need lawyers with hands-on experience in proving the cause of birth defects, combined with a solid track record of delivering results, and the financial resources to take on the major expense of a birth defects case. Children in California, Washington, Illinois, Ohio, New York, Vermont and France have benefited because of our experience, extraordinary resources and readiness and our results have earned us a national reputation.

- Product Liability / Defective Products

Our experience, extraordinary resources and readiness have earned us a national reputation and a national practice representing clients in defective product claims involving the full range of defective product litigation: cars, trucks, SUVs, crashworthiness, roof crush, stability, tires, toxic chemicals, medical devices, dangerous drugs, electrical switches and industrial equipment from bulldozers to scaffolding in mining shafts. The range of products we have taken on is diverse, but in each case our experience in complex reconstruction, design analysis, cost engineering, failure analysis, human factors and biomechanical engineering have assured access to the best engineering talent in the country experts who know their field and who can explain it to a jury and that has provided our clients with outstanding results.

- Insurance Fraud / Bad Faith

The lawyers of Alexander Hawes are leaders in insurance bad faith cases that maximize recoveries in serious personal injury cases. In many cases, the recoveries are much greater than assets or the insurance coverage of the person at fault. In our experience, most people have little or no accident claims experience. They make tragic mistakes speaking to adjusters that easily could have been avoided and they give up major rights when they speak freely. Please don't make that mistake.
