Our attorneys have in-depth experience advocating for injured workers in the state workers' compensation system and on behalf of federal railroad employees under the Federal Employees Liability Act (FELA).

- Construction Accidents

When injuries occur as the result of construction site accidents, the legal rights of the injured workers must be protected. Depending on the specific circumstances, workers injured after construction accidents may need to file both workers' compensation claims and a private personal injury lawsuit in order to access full financial compensation for injuries and lost wages. The interaction of the workers' compensation system and private personal injury litigation can be complicated. Our attorneys have advanced experience representing workers injured in construction accidents.

- Premises Liability

Premises liability is a legal term that refers to the responsibility that property owners have to keep visitors reasonably safe from injury. All property owners are subject to this legal responsibility: commercial property owners, government landowners and private property owners, as well as those who manage property for others. Our law firm recently achieved a $185,000 settlement on behalf of a client who was injured when she tripped and fell outside the entrance to a retail store.
