Areas of Law

Areas of Law Description

The scope of our practice includes:

- Personal Injury

If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident resulting from negligence or intentional harm of others, you may be entitled to receive just compensation for your physical and psychological injuries. Also, if you have lost a family member due to the negligence or intentional acts of another party, you may be entitled to compensation for the wrongful death of your loved one. To protect your rights and make certain that you are taking all of the necessary actions in the recovery process, you should contact a personal Injury trial lawyer. Rogers Law Firm handles many types of personal injury cases including:

• Motor Vehicle Accidents
• Trucking/Eighteen Wheeler Accidents
• Motorcycle Accidents
• Boating Accidents
• Pedestrian Accidents
• Drunk Driving Accidents
• Brain Injuries

• Product Liability
• Fires and Explosions

• Catastrophic Injury/Accidental Death
• Intentional Torts such as Assault and Battery
• Libel and Slander
• Homeowner's Insurance Claims
• Commercial Insurance Claims

- Wrongful Death

Wrongful death suits can recover the medical, funeral, and burial expenses associated with the wrongful death itself, in addition to any loss of salary, benefits, pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of companionship, and other damages that will increase burden on the family already suffering a grave loss. Since all wrongful death suits will differ, the Rogers Law Firm can help you determine what reasonable and just compensation each family member can seek based on the relationship between the wrongful death victim and the individual wrongful death survivor.

- Automobile Accidents

The responsible party wants to settle your case as soon as possible – and for as little money as possible. You need time to determine just how serious your injury is, what medical treatment or physical therapy you need, and how much your lost wages and medical expenses will be. Therefore, it is crucial to retain a qualified personal injury trial attorney as soon as possible to achieve maximum and just compensation.

Rogers Law Firm can help you:

• Establish liability by preserving evidence and interviewing witnesses
• Ensure you receive the proper medical care and stay in touch with you as you recover from your injuries
• Help you understand the law, including statutes of limitations
• Collect the necessary medical records and bills and help you document your injuries properly so that you receive full compensation
• Ensure that you receive the compensation to which you are rightfully entitled
• Negotiate a settlement that takes into account all future medical and financial needs
• Work with medical providers and/or your health insurance company to settle all liens and bills with respect to your case.

- Trucking Accidents

Sheadyn R. Rogers, a Plano Dallas TX personal injury lawyer, has the knowledge and expertise to effectively represent clients injured in trucking accidents by negligent truck drivers and/or negligent trucking companies. If you have been involved in a trucking accident causing serious personal injury involving a semi tractor trailer, eighteen wheeler, or any commercial vehicle, contact Sheadyn R, Rogers of the Law Offices of Sheadyn R. Rogers, PC d/b/a Rogers Law Firm today for a case evaluation.

- Abuse of Children, Disabled and Elderly

Our law firm is available to represent children, disabled, and elderly individuals who are the victims of any form of abuse. The abuse may be physical, emotional, or sexual. Such individuals are not able to defend themselves and deserve the best representation possible. The emotional damage caused by such abuse may last a lifetime and if someone does not take a stand to stop the abuser, it will probably continue to others.

- Product Liability

Many people fail to realize that there are federal and local laws which protect consumers against dangerous products and hold manufacturers liable for injuries caused by such goods. These regulations are generally known as product liability law. If you have been injured by a defective product, it is essential you contact a knowledgeable lawyer who can help you determine your rights and represent you against large manufacturing companies. Contact Sheadyn R. Rogers, a skilled personal injury trial attorney, if you or a loved one has been injured by:

• Defective automobile products including airbags, seatbelts, tires, child car seats
• Automobiles which fail crashworthiness standards such as excessive roof crush
• Pharmaceutical/drug products
• Medical Devices
• Children’s toys and cribs
• Household appliances
• Sporting goods including firearms, exercise equipment, helmets

- Construction Accidents

Whether you're a construction worker or merely a bystander who has suffered injury as the result of a construction accident, you may be eligible to receive economic recovery for your losses. Rogers Law Firm can help you understand your legal rights and determine the best course of action for you.

- Premise Liability

Although premises liability law seeks to protect parties who are injured as the result of the property owner’s negligence, it is often difficult to prove liability especially if the owner has corrected the hazardous condition. To ensure that the proper grounds for your claim are met, contact Sheadyn R. Rogers, a knowledgeable personal injury trial attorney who has the resources and experience necessary to help you collect compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional trauma.

- Motorcycle Accidents

If you have been seriously injured, or a loved one killed, in a motorcycle accident, contact the Law Offices of Sheadyn R. Rogers, PC today. Mr. Rogers will personally take the time to learn as much as possible about you and your family, the facts of your case, and the injuries and damages you have incurred. Mr. Rogers will aggressively represent you to reach the best resolution, whether through a settlement or trial.

- Boating Accidents

Many Texas families love to go boating to fish, swim, ski and enjoy the open water. A serious boating accident; however, can cause permanent injury to your loved one and/or death. If you or a loved one has been involved in a boating accident, call Plano TX personal injury lawyer Sheadyn R. Rogers of the Rogers Law Firm for immediate legal representation and counsel.

- Swimming Pool Accidents

Those responsible for failing to provide adequate swimming pool safety and equipment may include the following:

• Residential property owners
• Apartment complexes
• Hotels
• Waterparks

If you or your loved one has been the unfortunate victim of a swimming pool accident, contact Sheadyn R. Rogers for a consultation concerning your case.

- Oil Field Accidents

An accident in the oil and gas industry can cause serious permanent injury (loss of limbs, paralysis, brain damage, broken bones) and death. Sheadyn R. Rogers has represented individuals who have suffered serious personal injury in the oil field industry. If you have suffered such an injury or lost a loved family member, call the Rogers Law Firm today for a free initial consultation concerning your case.

- Work Related Injuries

Many times employers carry worker's compensation insurance to provide employees with some assistance with their lost wages and medical bills. However, many employers do not subscribe to Texas Worker's Compensation and will not pay for the employee's loss of wages or medical bills, even if the employer is at fault for the accident. Furthermore, many times the accident is the fault of the employer and/or a third party (another company's negligence).

It is also illegal to discriminate against a worker for filing a claim for worker's compensation. I have seen employers fire, terminate, and discretely "get rid" of workers who are injured on the job. If you have suffered a serious personal injury at work, you should contact an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible.

- Family Law

Family law covers a broad array of domestic issues including premarital agreements, divorce, paternity and child support issues, and CPS investigations. When legal action is necessary to resolve familial matters, it is essential that you entrust your most private matters with a compassionate and trusting attorney. Sheadyn R. Rogers serves as a good listener, confidant and advocate for all of his clients during their most difficult times.

- Divorce

Divorce involves many issues including child custody, child support, parenting plans, and property division. With respect to children, the Court will decide what type of custody, possession, and access the parties are allowed with the children based on what is in the "best interest of the children." With respect to property division, some cases can become quite complex in determining what property is community property verses separate property and what constitutes a just, fair, and equitable division of the marital estate.

- Divorce Mediation

Sheadyn R. Rogers can represent you in your divorce proceeding, file your case, represent your best interests, obtain the appropriate and necessary written documents and discovery from your spouse, effectively represent and counsel you as your attorney during the mediation process, and if your case is unable to settle, proceed to trial.

- Mediation

If your case is one that can be mediated, you should be represented by an experienced and trusting attorney to assist you through the mediation process. Sheadyn R. Rogers has helped many, many clients through the mediation process. If your case can be settled for a just and fair amount, settlement is many times a good option for the client. If your case cannot be settled at mediation, the Rogers Law Firm will be prepared to continue with your case through trial. Sheadyn R. Rogers is a professionally trained mediator and is available to conduct mediations for lawyers and their clients.

- Business Litigation

If you are a small or large business, an individual, a customer, or an employee with a business dispute, the Rogers Law Firm can help. Sheadyn R. Rogers can assist you with respect to the following areas of business related litigation:

• Collections
• Unfair collection methods
• Breach of fiduciary duty
• Breach of contract
• Deceptive Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Act
• Commercial insurance litigation
• Fraud
• Drafting and negotiating contracts and employment agreements
• Breach of non-competition or non-solicitation agreements
• Breach of employee non-disclosure agreements
• Slander and libel
• Tortious interference (intentional damage of business relationship)

- Civil Litigation

Our firm works closely with clients to evaluate their potential claims or defenses related to commercial, professional, employment, and personal dispute that is the subject of litigation. Mr. Rogers represents clients before alternative dispute resolution proceedings such as mediation or arbitration, and jury or court trials in state and federal court. Mr. Rogers help clients prepare their case and counsel them on steps and procedures involved. A civil litigation attorney can help clients leverage their negotiating position to reach a beneficial settlement which may be the most appropriate and economical manner of handing certain cases. However, when a dispute cannot be resolved satisfactorily, taking a case to court may be the best or only option.
