Practice Areas

Practice Areas Description

The Law Offices of Peter B. Tiemann specialize in the following areas of Personal Injury Law:

- Spine Injury

When you have suffered a spinal injury, it is absolutely essential that you get the best legal representation you can as quickly as you can after your injury. Because spinal injuries are often completely life changing injuries, you need to come to the realization that you will probably be dealing with the repercussions of your injury for the rest of your life, both in terms of your physical health and as far as your financial health goes, too.

- Brain Injury

You would be very surprised by the number of people who suffer brain injuries every year over 300,000. A total of 56,000 of those people will die from their injuries. Brain injuries are more than just a concussion, and in many cases leave the victim with multiple lifelong disabilities. The circumstances during which many brain injuries occur are varied. They can range from electrocution to car accidents, gunshot wounds to slip and falls. Brain injuries are one of the leading causes of death worldwide and are considered to be an epidemic of sorts because of how often they occur and how often they go untreated.

- Auto Accident

Being in a car accident is an event that many people quite simply never get over. Even if they are only slightly injured, not only are they left with physical scars, but the emotional and psychological scars often go unaddressed for years to come. Although you may only be looking to have your initial medical bills paid for after an accident, by enlisting the assistance of an auto accident attorney, you will make sure that your long-term health is also taken care of.

- Accident

Believe it or not, there are some people who think that you are somehow being greedy if you are asking for compensation after being injured. But, if you have ever been through a severe injury or accident, then you know the trauma and upheaval that can happen not only to you but your entire family. If you are the person responsible for bringing in the majority of the family’s earnings, then what will happen to your family if you can no longer work?

- Motorcycle Accident

A motorcycle accident lawsuit involves several different issues, not least of which is often severe injuries. If you were the rider or passenger on a motorcycle, the chance is very good that you experienced some type of life-changing injury, one that will haunt you forever. In addition, your vehicle is also probably in pretty bad shape and you will require compensation for that as well.

- Truck Accident

The laws that regulate trucks and their drivers are on both the federal and state level, and what may seem like an innocuous accident to one lawyer may not seem so to a truck accident lawyer. They are well versed in the reasons why truck accidents occur, as well as what truck drivers are allowed and are not allowed to do while on the road. Not all truck accidents are the same, and the reasons behind them must be found out in order to establish blame, negligence, or even to find out if the trucker has broken the law.

- Defective Products

It is not at all unusual these days to buy a product that just doesn’t work as advertised, but sometimes the failure of a product to perform is more than just shoddy construction or design, but it is an actual defect. And, when that product defect causes you harm or cost in any way, then you should be looking to secure the services of a Sacramento defective products attorney to assist you.

- Insurance

When it comes to car insurance, it is not unusual for your own insurance company to try to deny you coverage for any number of reasons. You may find that they find loopholes in the coverage that prevents you from being covered, or you may find that your insurance is immediately cancelled after you make a claim. A Sacramento insurance attorney can definitely help you with this kind of case. That is why you need an insurance attorney. This type of experienced and qualified lawyer knows how to deal with insurance cases, is aware of the loopholes that they are trying to saddle you with, and they know how to beat them at their own game.

- SUV Rollover

Before there were SUVs, there were only a few outdoor-type vehicles that were known to rollover when they were turned sharply. Now, however, there are numerous vehicles that have a history of being rollover candidates and you may be driving one of them. In fact, many accidents that are believed to be the fault of a driver are actually the fault of the manufacturer of the vehicle or the tires, but without the assistance of a properly qualified SUV rollover attorney, you wouldn’t know that.

- Wrongful Death

When something happens to a family member, something bad, the first thing you try to do is heal yourself. It is a painful experience and one that you often just want to put out of your mind. But, hiring a wrongful death attorney and gaining recompense in memory of your relative as well as for your own benefit is something that you should be doing immediately, even while you are mourning.

- Pedestrian Accident

Believe it or not, thousands of people are killed on the streets of this country every year by vehicles. This is a frightening thought and one that should make you think twice before the next time you cross the street. Pedestrian injuries are very common, especially if you live in an urban area, and are something that requires legal representation. If you have been subject to a pedestrian injury, then you need to secure the assistance of a Sacramento pedestrian accident attorney as soon as possible.

- Boating Accident

Boating accidents are far more frequent accidents than you might believe. You may not know anyone who has been involved in one, yet thousands of people are killed or injured every year in this country because of negligent or inappropriate driving on a lake or at sea. There are several main problems at play in any type of boating accident, the first of which is determining who is actually at fault.

- Airplane Crash

We have all seen the survivors of air plane crashes on television, and you can tell that immediately after the crash even though they may be physically unhurt, they are mentally devastated. Having a brush with death is something no one gets over easily. If you or your loved one goes through an air crash, it is an experience that deeply affects the entire family, psychologically, mentally, and even financially.

- Bus Accident

If you have gotten this far in your life without getting into some sort of accident, then you should consider yourself lucky. By the time most Americans are in their thirties, they have been in at least one auto accident or other type of accident that has caused them moderate to severe injuries. Perhaps you are living a sheltered life, or maybe you are just lucky, but if you haven't been injured then you are actually in the minority.

- Train Accident

Despite the belief that trains are a safe mode of transportation, there are almost two major train accidents every day in the United States. With over 3,000 fatalities each year, travelling by train may be safer than being on the road, but it is still dangerous. There are primarily two types of train injuries that require the assistance of a train accident attorney. These are people who have been injured while riding in a train and those who have been hit by a train.

- Construction Accident

If you have been injured in any kind of construction accident, whether you were on the job or just a passerby, then you should make immediate contact with a construction accident attorney to secure your rights. Especially if you were a worker on the site, your employer may ask that you sign papers or agree not to use them, but you should never make any kind of agreement like this without first speaking to a construction accident lawyer. They can take the negotiations out of your hands, so that you no longer have to be strong-armed by your employer, and they can ensure that you get what is fairly due to you.

- Catastrophic Injury

When you are injured in an accident, it seems that all injuries are catastrophic. To someone who has been in a vehicular accident and has suffered cuts, broken bones, or other injuries, the trauma of the accident that stays with them for the rest of their lives. But, there are some injuries that are simply more traumatic or catastrophic than others and these injuries require the services of a Sacramento catastrophic injury attorney.

- Birth Injury

It goes without saying that when something happens to a newborn baby, that the people who are at fault should be held accountable, but too often that does not happen. In many cases, the parents are so completely distraught that they are unable to muster the energy to bring about a lawsuit, and because of that, there is the chance that more infants will be hurt or killed in the future. For the rights of your own child and those of other potential victims, if your baby was hurt or killed in a birth injury, you need to find an experienced birth injury attorney.

- Burn Injury

When someone has been badly burned in any kind of accident, the recovery is extraordinarily painful and expensive. Whether the burn was incurred in a car accident, at the workplace, at home, or by chemical or electrical means, they are all take years of recovery and rehabilitation, and the physical and mental scars may never go away.

- Bicycle Accident

When you are on a bicycle and are hit by another vehicle, you undoubtedly will lose that fight. Whether the accident is actually your fault or not, you will probably be blamed for it by the insurance company that is involved, and they may give you a very hard time regarding your compensation. You need a bicycle accident attorney on your side to make sure that your rights are protected and to see that the truth is told.

- Slip and Fall

Everyone has had an occasion when they have slipped or tripped and fell in a public place. It is embarrassing, and nine times out of ten, you pop up quickly so that no one will see you, regardless of how injured you really are. You may deny help from the people around you, preferring to be on your own, to lick your wounds. But, you may also find out that a few hours later you are far more injured than you thought you were and this is when you need a slip and fall attorney.

- Dog Bite

After you have been bitten by a dog, you have a lot of healing to do. Of course you may have scars that need to be dealt with, but the psychological scars are often worse than the visible ones. Especially in the case of children who have been bitten, they are likely to live the rest of their lives in fear of animals, not to mention the fact that they will have physical scars forever, as well.

- Workers Compensation

Whether you know it or not, your employer is paying into a workers compensation insurance program, so that if something happens to you while you are on the job, you will be well taken care of. Unfortunately, many employees do not know that they are covered under this plan, and especially if they are friends or relatives of their employer, they fail to place a claim, fearing that it will put the business in jeopardy. But, workers compensation is there as much for their protection as it is for yours and by hiring a workers comp attorney, you will be able to make sure that you get the compensation that you have the rights to.

- Medical Malpractice

Few people actually file for malpractice because they either don’t think they can prove their case or they as so distraught that the thought of going through a legal battle right on the heels of a medical battle is simply too much to bare. After you have been injured or a loved one has died as a result of medical malpractice, there are a lot of bad feelings of guilt, shame, anger, and regret. Although you may want to file a medical malpractice suit, the thought of doing so sometimes makes people feel like they are being greedy.
