Roanoke Personal Injury Lawyer
Every day, thousands of people are injured throughout our country in car accidents, vehicle crashes, defective products, dog attacks, and other negligence caused by others. Tragically, many people also die as the result of these matters.
As injury lawyers serving Roanoke and the surrounding communities, unfortunately there is not anything that we can do to undo the pain suffered by injury victims and their families. Our role is not to seek sympathy for our clients – rather, it is to do our upmost to secure for them full and fair compensation for their injuries and suffering.
If You’ve Been Injured, We Invite You to Call Us Today for a Free Consultation
We accept all injury and wrongful death cases on a contingency fee basis, so you will not owe us any fees unless we recover compensation for you.
Importantly, as a full-service injury law firm, we will advance all litigation costs on your behalf while your matter progresses. Normally, significant costs are incurred in Roanoke personal injury cases, such as court costs, deposition costs and fees, and expert witness fees. We believe that those seeking justice should not have to come out of pocket for these fees and expenses as their case is ongoing, especially if they are trying to heal after being injured, or if they are grieving the loss of a loved one.
We pay for these costs as they are incurred, and these costs are then normally reimbursed to us from the proceeds of a settlement or trial award (our fees and costs are fully described in the representation agreement between our firm and our clients, which governs how these matters are handled). We will also work with your physicians, medical professionals, and insurance companies as your case progresses, as these people and entities will likely be closely involved in your case.
Representing Victims and Families in All Types of Injury and Wrongful Death Cases
There are no insignificant cases at our firm.
If you’ve been injured, you deserve an experiences personal injury attorney who will work tirelessly in seeking the best results possible for you.
We represent clients in cases arising out of a wide variety of matters, including:
- Car and Vehicle Accidents. Car and vehicle crashes account for the most cases of injury and wrongful death in the United States. Insurance companies for those responsible work hard to do everything possible to avoid paying what they owe; we fight back and demand full and fair compensation. (learn more about how we oppose insurance companies).
- Semi-truck and Commercial Vehicle Accidents. Tractor-trailer “big rig” crashes often result in serious injury and fatalities because of the size of the vehicles causing the crash. We believe that the companies that own these vehicles and employ the negligent drivers should be held fully accountable for all damages that they cause.
- On-Site Property Injuries. These types of injuries include matters such as dog and animal bites, slips and falls (such as those resulting from snow or ice outside, or slick floors inside), or other injuries (such as those that occur in warehouse stores when customers are injured by merchandise falling from highly-stacked shelves).
- Defective Products. In addition to products being defective in design or functionality, products may also be defective if they do not contain adequate warnings or instruction manuals.
- Motorcycle, Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents. Motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists have little protection when hit by vehicles. In addition to the many fatalities that result, many accident victims suffer traumatic injuries that may affect them for the rest of their life. We seek full compensation from them not only for their past damages, but also for the future damages (including pain and suffering) that they are likely to face.
- Other Injuries. We represent families and injury victims in nearly every type of case that may arise.
