Personal injury lawyers work to get you fair compensation from a person, persons, business, hospital, or manufacturer that is responsible for your injuries. We work to make insurance companies pay up. Call us now if you are the individual who was injured, or if you are looking for an attorney on behalf of someone else. You have the right to be compensated if you have been hurt due to negligence or an intentional harmful act.


We are confident that we can provide you with excellent legal representation. We believe that our experience sets us apart from some personal injury lawyers. The reason is that the principal attorney in our firm, Paul Bennett, used to represent insurance companies in these kinds of injury lawsuits. Now he can effectively fight for what you are entitled to, using his knowledge of how the insurance companies work in these kinds of cases.

What is a personal injury lawsuit? You may have heard it called a “tort”. It simply refers to actions that result in harm to someone. It might have been on purpose (intentional) or it may have been due to negligence (unintentional). You are not accusing anyone of committing a crime – personal injury lawyers file civil lawsuits.

• Our job is to prove that the other side is responsible, and should therefore pay money damages to the person who suffered injury. The law gives you the right to sue. Personal injury lawyers will seek compensation for your personal, financial or other losses that resulted from the negligence or willful harmful act. In a lawsuit, you are the plaintiff (making the complaint), and the other side is the defendant (defending against the claim for compensation you are making).

In order for personal injury lawyers to file a lawsuit seeking compensation, the facts of a case must be examined to ensure that they meet the legal requirements of a personal injury claim. Your free, initial consultation with our attorney will enable examination of what happened to you, and lead to a determination as to whether we can represent you. The questions we must answer are:

• Do you have a legal right to sue?
• Did the defendant have a duty to act safely or ensure the safety of a product or service?
• Did the defendant violate that duty?
• Did you suffer continuous injury or damage as a result (for example, a long recovery, permanent disability, lost wages, and more)

Sometimes the seriousness of an injury does not become apparent immediately. It can be important to speak with personal injury lawyers as soon as possible after a person becomes aware of the long-term nature of the injuries. There are time limits on how long you have to start a lawsuit. You may be entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering; for ongoing medical care; for lost income; for medical bills; if you have become permanently disabled; if you lost intimate companionship of a spouse. On top of compensation, there may be damages that the defendant could be ordered to pay if the injuries were the result of intentional behavior.
