Motor Vehicle Accidents

On busy roads in New Carrollton such as the Capital Beltway, Annapolis Road, and Riverdale Road, motor vehicle crashes are common. Our attorney handles claims involving many types of motor vehicle accidents, including:

Car Accidents

Negligent drivers may cause car accidents for many reasons. Whether an accident has been caused by speeding, distracted driving, drunk driving, or other forms of unsafe behavior, our lawyer can take steps to hold the at-fault driver responsible. He can negotiate settlements with insurance companies and make sure a person will receive the full coverage available.

Truck Accidents

Commercial trucks are massive, and crashes between trucks and smaller vehicles often cause catastrophic injuries. Trucking companies may be held liable for their failure to follow the proper safety rules, or other parties may be responsible for their role in truck accidents. Our attorney can provide the representation needed to help a victim recover compensation for an accident that took place because a truck driver was fatigued, a truck was poorly maintained, or because of other factors.

Motorcycle Accidents

People who ride motorcycles have very little protection in a collision. They may face biases as they respond to motorcycle accidents, since insurers may try to blame them for collisions. Our team works to counter unfair claims against motorcyclists and help them hold negligent drivers responsible for accidents.

Pedestrian Accidents

When drivers do not yield to pedestrians as required, they can cause dangerous pedestrian accidents. Pedestrians near train stations and shopping centers may be at risk of being injured by drivers who violate traffic laws, fail to watch for people who are crossing the road, or act negligently in other ways. Our lawyer can gather witness statements, video footage, and crash reports to show what really happened and hold a driver responsible for injuring a pedestrian.

Injuries Caused by Defective Products

Manufacturers and sellers of products have a duty to ensure that the items they sell are safe. When a product causes harm, an injury victim may have several legal options. Our attorney can provide representation in product liability cases involving issues such as:

• Design Defects: A product may be dangerous by design, such as an SUV with a high rollover risk or a space heater that easily overheats.
• Manufacturing Defects: Something may have gone wrong during the production of a product, such as a contaminated medication or a car seat with a cracked buckle.
• Warning Defects: A company may have failed to include adequate instructions or warn about the hidden dangers of a product, such as side effects of a prescription drug.

Other Personal Injury Cases

Our attorney represents people in many other types of injury claims, including:

• Premises Liability: Property owners may be held liable if they fail to ensure that their premises are safe for visitors. We can assist with slip and fall accidents, injuries caused by negligent security, dog bites, and more.
• Medical Malpractice: Medical providers may be held liable for injuries caused by negligence. We can assist with cases involving birth injuries, misdiagnosis, and other forms of medical negligence.
• Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect: Issues such as bedsores, falls, malnutrition, medication errors, or abuse can occur because of the negligence of a nursing home. We can help families take steps to hold a negligent nursing home liable for a patient's injuries.
• Wrongful Death: When negligence results in the loss of a loved one's life, family members may be able to recover compensation through a wrongful death claim. Our team works with families to help ensure that they will be fully compensated for their losses.
