Our practice is based on providing excellent value and service with integrity. When the firm was founded in 1993, it was for the purpose of providing high quality representation and consulting. We are honest and open with our clients and we work hard to resolve each case efficiently. By limiting our practice to a few select areas, we can operate with a smaller overhead, and maintain our high standard of quality. We take the time to do things right.
We represent regional and national carriers in cases involving accident claims, freight claims, and other legal matters. We have assembled an emergency response team of engineers, investigators, and attorneys to respond quickly after an accident to gather and protect important evidence, survey the site, and work on accident reconstruction matters in order to provide the proper defense in these cases.
Our construction litigation attorneys represent contractors, subcontractors, and developers who are involved in construction defects claims. We handle cases involving synthetic stucco, or EIFS, mold, and countless other defects in residential and commercial buildings, school construction projects, and utilities.
We assist national and international manufacturing companies and distributors facing product liability claims including personal injury and warranty claims. We provide experienced tort litigation and breach of contract attorneys to assist you in defending against product liability claims.
Defending hospitals, doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals and associations in professional liability and medical malpractice cases requires attention to details and extensive preparation. We represent these clients against claims for medical malpractice liability.
We compose opinion letters concerning the extent of coverage our insurance company clients owe in particular situations. We also defend insurance companies in coverage disputes and bad faith litigation. Our business litigation lawyers help insurance companies assess their liability and defend against breach of contract claims.
Our lawyers handle all business matters from formation to dissolution. We can negotiate employment contracts, non-compete agreements, and buy/sell agreements. Whatever legal issues your business faces, we will be there to help.
It is important to have a plan in place for your estate. Without a plan, disputes, unnecessary tax payments, and confusion may cause your family further pain. We draft wills and trusts, powers of attorney, health care powers of attorney, living wills, and other estate planning documents to help you take control of your future.
We handle the probate court filings, estate tax returns, accountings, asset valuations, and sales that probate may entail. We have extensive experience in probate and we can help manage this process quickly and easily.
When disputes arise over the proper distribution of an estate, you need a knowledgeable probate litigation lawyer to help you resolve these issues. We assist clients in will contests, will construction, beneficiary and trustee disputes, creditor's claims, and other related matters.
Whether you need defense in a premises liability case, or a medical malpractice liability case, we can provide you with high quality representation.
