Class actions have long been an essential mechanism in our legal system for allowing persons who’ve been victims of the same unlawful acts or practices to bring similar claims in one case in one court. They can provide Class Members money damages; various types of court orders to stop the unlawful practice; or court orders declaring a practice unlawful. Class actions may be brought in state or federal courts, and may involve Class Members in one state, several states or throughout the country.
Personal injury cases we handle include but are not limited to: auto, car, truck, motorcycle, & boat accidents; helicopter or airplane crashes; construction site accidents; slip-and-falls; medical, doctor, or healthcare provider mistakes & malpractice; nursing home neglect or abuse; school-related accidents and sporting event injuries; workplace or employment accidents or illnesses; and injuries and sicknesses from pollution, unsafe or defective products and drugs (prescription & street drugs).
If you’ve lost a loved one as a result of another person’s negligent, reckless or intentional acts, a legal claim of wrongful death may be appropriate to help to ease the financial burden of your loss, as well as that of your family members. Courts may award financial relief and money compensation for the loss of support, services, earnings, medical and funeral expenses and mental pain and suffering brought about by the wrongful death of a loved one.
