  • Car accidents: The majority of our claims have to do with car accidents of every different kind, including head-on and T-bone collisions, sideswipes and multivehicle accidents.
  • Pedestrians: If you are struck by a car as a pedestrian, you will be dealing with more extensive injuries, as well as other special concerns regarding your case.

  • Whiplash and neck injuries: Most cases of whiplash resolve themselves eventually, but they can sometimes leave you with long-term pain and disability.
