Personal Injury

Personal injury law is an area of legal practice that allows victims of various injuries to hold the perpetrators accountable for the consequences of their actions. Some of the most common types of personal injury matters arise due to motor vehicle accidents, dog bites and wrongful death. The wrongdoer almost always has an insurance company and lawyers who have been trained for one job - to reduce or deny your rights to recover for your injuries. If you’ve been the victim of someone else’s carelessness you need an experienced Dayton personal injury lawyer to fight for your rights. Don’t let the insurance company make you the victim twice.

Medical Malpractice

Statistics show that nearly 100,000 people die each year as a result of medical malpractice. That is more than die from car accidents, breast cancer and AIDS. Countless others are severely and permanently injured. The emotional, physical and financial costs of medical errors can be devastating. Our firm has a proven track record in handling cases involving a multitude of injuries, including but not limited to birth trauma, cerebral palsy, brain damage, failure to diagnose, surgical mistakes and wrongful death.

Nursing Home Abuse

Whether a caregiver fails to meet the needs of the senior (neglect) or actually physically or mentally abuses a resident, nursing home abuse is not uncommon in today's society. This even includes midwestern towns like Dayton and Cincinnati, Ohio. We must do our best to prevent it. Recently, there has been increased recognition that elderly and dependent adults are subject to risks of abuse, neglect and abandonment. The abuse can be recurrent neglect or a single event which produces injury, either physical or financial. There are several common types of injuries that are suffered as a result of recurrent neglect, including:

Falls and fractures
Physical or chemical restraints
Malnutrition or dehydration
Improper, wrong or over-medication
Bed sores
Lack of supervision
Gangrene
Wrongful death
