Being a property owner comes with certain responsibilities and obligations. Property owners are supposed to maintain a level of safety for everyone who enters their premises.

This is a very common question. Many people do not feel pain from an accident immediately. Pain could develop in the hours, and even days, following an accident. It is never too late to seek medical treatment. However, the sooner that you seek necessary medical treatment the better off you are for several reasons. Medical treatment will help in diagnosing injuries and provide relief of pain. Also, it is easier to prove that the injury was caused by the accident, if you receive treatment close to the time of the accident.

We understand the importance of communication and transparency between attorney and client. Although we would like to talk to you weekly by telephone, that would be neither practical nor productive. Legal matters have a way of stretching out over long periods of time. To you, it may often seem like ages have gone by without activity, however, in fact, much behind-the-scenes work is being completed so that on the day your matter is ready, nothing will be overlooked. In order to keep the cost of legal services down while maximizing communications, we will strive to keep you informed when anything important happens and to respond to your questions in a reasonable time. In addition, we will inform you when your presence is required, either in our office or in court.
