• Past and future medical bills

• Pain and suffering

Personal injury victims should be aware that claims must be brought within a specific time frame. This time limit, known as the statute of limitations, varies by state. For this reason, it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident to ensure that your rights will be fully protected.

• Motorcycle accidents
• Dog bites
• Slip-and-fall accidents

• Spinal cord injuries
• Back, neck and knee injuries
• Fatal accidents and wrongful death
• Workplace injuries

Back, neck and knee injuries are some of the most common personal injury cases; however, every case is different. Your injury requires careful attention to detail, which will increase the likelihood of a fair settlement on your behalf.

If you have suffered from a back, neck or knee injury, you know these ailments can be both painful and debilitating.

• Back injuries: Damage to ligaments and muscles, surrounding nerves and possibly to the spinal cord
• Neck injuries: Can be caused by spinal problems as well as muscular tightness in the upper back and may include joint disruption and pinched nerves
