Practice Areas Description

Our firm provides legal representation on the following areas of practice:

- Personal Injury

The Luvera Law Firm is skilled at handling a range of personal injury cases caused by negligent individuals, government entities and corporations. Personal injury cases revolve around three core elements: the liability of the person or organization at fault, the extent of the injuries — both physical and emotional — sustained by the victim, and the financial assets available from insurance coverage and other sources to pay for the losses. We evaluate these three elements before taking on any case, looking at the relevant details and working with other legal experts to determine the potential for success before advising the client whether or not it is appropriate to sue.

- Automobile Accidents

Our experience includes lawsuits against government agencies for defective highway design, railroad companies for faulty crossings, and negligent drivers in a variety of automobile accidents. From initial investigations to discover why and how an accident occurred, to settlement negotiations with insurance companies and those at fault, to state and federal courtroom trials, we have the staff, resources and expertise needed to handle complex personal and property damage claims. We also are adept at evaluating sources of insurance and navigating issues related to medical insurance, uninsured and underinsured drivers, and our clients’ own policies.

- Airplane Accidents

We have a wealth of experience with a range of aviation cases, from single-engine small plane crashes to commercial airline tragedies. Disasters that result from mistakes made by commercial airline companies often lead to complex litigation that requires a significant amount of investigation beyond what the National Transportation Safety Board and other federal agencies perform. We have the resources — including a vast network of renowned aviation attorneys and other legal experts — to support these in-depth investigations, and to work through any limitations from federal and international jurisdictions.

- Corporate Wrongdoing

Fraud, injury and other damages from corporate behavior affect individuals and businesses in many ways. To prevent misdeeds from happening again, it’s vital that organizations be held accountable for their actions. The Luvera Law Firm’s business and commercial case experience includes lawsuits against banks for mismanagement of trust funds, and cases involving injuries caused by faulty construction work, as well as lost revenue and other damages to businesses as a result of defective products. The Luvera Law Firm also accepts cases on behalf of businesses involving commercial litigation.

- Medical Malpractice

Medical professionals — including doctors, nurses and other clinicians — and healthcare facilities are held to established standards when caring for patients. Medical malpractice cases involve situations where a healthcare provider or organization makes an avoidable mistake, or creates an error-prone care environment that leads to injury or death. The Luvera Law Firm has represented clients of all ages with a wide range of serious medical negligence claims, and has extensive experience in cases of obstetrical, neonatal and pediatric negligence.

- Defective Products

Consumers have a right to trust in the safety of the products they purchase. When a defective product causes serious injury, it not only harms the individual, but also may pose significant risks to other consumers as well. The Luvera Law Firm is very skilled at successfully handling cases involving defective products, including pharmaceutical products, machinery, tools and common household goods. Our goal is to achieve a successful outcome for clients and their families and to encourage safer practices among manufacturers.

- Maritime Injuries

Personal injury cases related to maritime law fall into two major categories: injuries to seamen, fishermen and other employees working on ocean-going vessels, and injuries to passengers on cruise ships. The Luvera Law Firm has successfully represented individuals in both groups. The Luvera Law Firm is experienced with regard to federal and state laws that cover the benefits and rights of seamen and fishermen, including injuries and death due to negligence by a ship owner or employer. Likewise, we are prepared to represent people making claims against cruise ship corporations for injuries.

- Insurance Misconduct

When an insurance company fails to honor its policy, refuses to pay what it owes, or obstructs settlement, it should be held responsible for the harm and damages it has caused. Our firm represents people who have been harmed by insurers’ misconduct, and we have achieved outstanding results for our clients in holding these companies fully accountable for their behavior.

- Birth Injuries

Our firm is one of the most experienced firms in the Northwest in investigating and pursuing birth injuries caused by negligence, and we have obtained record settlements and verdicts and in these cases. Because birth injury cases can be extremely complicated and difficult, it is important that the lawyer you select to represent your baby is the best. We will be happy to sit down with you and review the facts so we can help you evaluate what the best course is for you and your baby.

- Brain Injuries

An injury to the brain is one of the most devastating kinds of injury. Physical injuries can be disabling, but brain injuries are also demoralizing. The extraordinary frustration of trying to deal with such an injury is something we know a lot about. These injuries have a ripple effect that impacts not just the injured person, but his or her entire family. We are familiar with the importance of demonstrating the extent of the injury and its consequences.

- Death Cases

How does one evaluate the loss of a loved one? This is a problem that only attorneys with experience in dealing with injuries causing death know how to deal with and we have many years of experience in these cases. We know what it means to have the empty chair at the dinner table or the bread winner of the family no longer there.

- Medical Device Injuries / Pharmedical Cases

Medical device and pharmaceutical companies are among the biggest, wealthiest, and most powerful corporations in America. When you sue a medical device or drug company, you need an attorney who is prepared for the kind of defenses these companies mount. We have represented many people over the years with claims against medical device and drug companies and have achieved record settlements and verdicts. We are well-prepared to stand toe to toe against these companies when their defective products have injured our clients.

- Nursing Home Injuries

When we find it necessary to transition our loved ones into nursing homes or other similar care facilities it is a very difficult decision to make. As a result, we look for the very best facility we can find under all the circumstances and we trust that facility to care for our loved ones as they would expect to be cared for if the situation were reversed. However, it is sad to report that we have found cases where the facility is more interested in making a profit than providing good, loving care. Our office is experienced in these cases. Our trial and settlement results demonstrate our qualifications in this area of law.

- Railroad Crossing Injuries

Our firm is experienced in handling railroad crossing injuries to pedestrians and drivers. These accidents are often caused by obscured vision, unsafe crossings, inadequate warnings, or trains running at unsafe speeds—any of which can lead to disastrous injuries or death. These cases require attorneys with knowledge about the both federal and state laws governing railroads, which need to be carefully examined in light of the facts of each case. Our firm has the knowledge and skill to successfully investigate, prepare, and settle or try these cases.

- Work Site Injuries

People at work have the right to assume the premises they work at is reasonably safe for the work they are doing. Too often short cuts in safety are taken which result in unnecessary injuries at the job. We are there to help. We evaluate all job injury cases to see if there is a justified claim against another party and if the case is one that is limited to Labor and Industry Coverage, we make sure you get qualified help on your claim. There are time limits for filing such claims and procedures that are legally required in these cases so you should consult a qualified lawyer as soon as you can. Our office has a long history of assisting people with cases like this.
