Personal Injury
There are a wide variety of injuries and claims
which fall under the general title of Personal
Injury. Some examples of this type of claim are
Automobile Accidents, Slip & Fall Accidents or
Product Liability Claims
Automobile Accidents
The most common and most well known of these claims
are claims relating to automobile accidents. The
automobile accident claim does not start with the
filing of a lawsuit, but from the moment of the
accident onward. Our staff gets involved from the
moment you come to our office. We contact the
insurance company to get your vehicle repaired as
quickly as possible as well as starting the process
for the injury claim.
Another important facet of establishing the
automobile claim is getting the right doctors to
make sure that you recover fully from your injuries
and to try to help minimize your future suffering.
Pheil Law Firm deals only with the top medical
professionals to insure that our clients get the
very best medical care.
Premises Liability / Slip & Fall Accidents
Property owners can be held liable for injuries
caused by accidents, which occur on their property.
If you have been injured while on someone else’s
property, you may have the right to file premises
liability claim against them. These claims are
commonly referred to as Slip & Fall accidents.
Although these premise liability claims are
considered personal injury claims, they present
their own problems and unique proof issues.
Unlike a vehicle accident, where the cause of damage
is apparent and liability is usually relatively
clear cut, premises liability claims often present
liability issues. This is because you not only have
to prove that something on the property caused your
injury, but that the owner of the property had
notice of the existence of the thing on the
property, which caused your injury.
This is where Law Firm can help. We know how to
fight the insurance company and what experts to hire
and how to prove your case. We will do all the right
things to prove that the landowner had notice of the
condition and was liable for your injuries. We also
know how to deal with the ways that the insurance
companies perform, trying to avoid these issues.
Products Liability Claim
If you have been injured because a product failed to
work in the way it was intended to work, then you
have a possible products liability claim against the
manufacturer.
Most people are aware of the garden variety products
liability claim, where a product actual malfunctions
and causes injury, but it does not always require a
complete malfunction for a products liability claim
to exist.
If a product is designed and warranted to perform in
a particular manner and failed to do so due to a
design or manufacturing defect, there is still a
products liability claim, which can be made. Also,
what many people do not know is that there are often
several possible defendants in a products liability
claim as each party involved in the process is a
potential defendant, not just the final seller.
These cases are complex and you need an experienced
attorney such as Pheil Law Firm to handle all
possible defendants and legal issues.
Construction Liability
The subject of Construction Liability covers two
distinct types of liability:
-
Accidents
suffered by workers on construction sites that
do not fall under the scope of worker’s
compensation laws and
-
Injuries
suffered by third parties resulting from the
actions of construction workers or dangerous
conditions on a construction site
For example, an
employee on a construction site who is injured due
to the actions of a third party on that site would
have a claim for construction liability in addition
to any possible worker’s compensation claim.
The field of construction liability involves complex
laws and procedures and requires considerable
expertise to get the best results. Pheil Law Firm
can handle this type of claim as well as to advise
you if you have a claim you may not be aware about.
So, you should contact Pheil Law Firm to insure you
get the best representation possible on your claim.
Wrongful Death Claim
In the event of a fatal accident caused by the
negligence of another, the surviving relatives of
the deceased victim have the right to make what is
called a wrongful death claim. In a wrongful death
claim, the surviving family is asking for monetary
damages for the loss of their loved one.
Although money can never replace the hole left by
the loss of a family member, the right to a wrongful
death claim is a legal recourse open to the
survivors.
Given the potentially high amount of damages, which
can be recovered under a wrongful death claim,
insurance companies will go to great lengths to
defend an action containing a wrongful death claim.
As a result, you need to be sure that you get the
very best representation possible for your wrongful
death claim.
