Helping you

Resolve Your Most
Difficult Issues

Family Law

Familial conflict can be emotionally devastating. Whether you are embroiled in conflict or simply trying to find a solution to a difficult issue, we understand that family law issues are among the most deeply personal and therefore require a high degree of sensitivity coupled with compassionate advocacy. We help individuals and families navigate whatever issues they may be facing to help them get to a better place, whether it’s obtaining a divorce or getting a fair child support order in place. In other situations, we help our clients manage the potential for conflict using tools such as a prenuptial agreement or guiding them through the implications of a civil union. 

Medical
Malpractice

Malpractice

Medical Malpractice

We place tremendous trust in our healthcare professionals to care for us when we need it most. But, unfortunately, mistakes happen—some due to simple negligence and others due to indifference or recklessness. But because there are no guarantees regarding medical treatment, proving medical malpractice can be incredibly difficult and practically impossible for non-lawyers. You need a knowledgeable, experienced medical malpractice lawyer on your side who can help you hold the person or entity accountable for the harms and losses you have suffered. We begin with a careful assessment of your case to determine whether malpractice occurred and then work with you side-by-side to develop a strategy focused on getting the justice and maximum compensation you deserve.

Personal
Injury
Personal
Injury

Personal Injury

An unexpected accident can change your life forever. The law recognizes your right to be made whole, from medical bills to lost income to pain and suffering. Unfortunately, getting the compensation you need to rebuild your life can be extraordinarily difficult. Insurance companies focus first on their bottom line, meaning they want to pay as little as possible on your claim. In many cases, litigation may be your best option for getting the compensation you need, but the legal system can be nearly impossible for non-lawyers to navigate. You need someone on your side, someone who knows how to get justice and the maximum compensation for your injuries. We handle all aspects of the injury claim process, both inside and outside the courtroom, so our clients can focus on making a full recovery.

Compassionate Advocacy, Aggressive Litigators

We take the time to understand the problems you face, personal, practical, and legal. But our adversaries see us only as zealous advocates and aggressive litigators who work tirelessly to get the results our clients deserve.
