Injuries and Damages

Whether you've been cheated in business or injured in a car accident, the law protects you. The basic operation of the legal system is fairly simple. We have rights protecting us and duties we owe to others.

These duties come from a contract or a written law or from a tradition of courts defining "wrong" behavior, called torts. When you suffer a loss or injury as a result of breached duty, then you are entitled to remedies.

How to Present your Case

When you think about whether you might have a case, start with the harm done to you:

  • What are your damages or injuries, including future losses?
  • What action caused your injury?
  • Who was responsible for this action?

Next, what was the duty owed to you?

How I Can Help You

You know when you've been harmed and you likely know who harmed you and how. The problem is determining your damages and the legal duty that was breached.

I will explain to you whether there was a breach of a duty and the elements of your damages under the law. When you're ready to proceed, I will personally negotiate and, as needed, litigate, against the responsible parties and their insurance companies.
