Car Accidents
Were you injured in a car accident? In personal injury cases, car accidents are one of the leading causes of serious injury and death. You could be entitled to compensation for what you went through. You should not have to pay for medical expenses for an accident that was not your fault. Please, contact us as soon as possible so that we can determine who was at fault in your accident and seek to hold them accountable.

Bus Accidents
What should you do if you were injured in a bus accident? Whether you were a passenger on the bus, was in another car, or was a pedestrian, you could be entitled to compensation for what you went through. Bus driver negligence is unfortunately not uncommon due to the long hours they have to spend behind the wheel. This negligence, however, should not be overlooked.

Truck Accidents
One of the most serious accidents which occur on the road are those involving trucks. Due to the sheer size and weight of these vehicles, the damage and injury which is caused can be more catastrophic than other type of accidents. Truck drivers are required to be behind the wheel for hours at a time. Driver fatigue is a constant battle, making it even more important that they follow federal regulations involving hours.

Pedestrian Accidents
Drivers on the road need to be on the lookout for other traffic in order to avoid a collision. What can often be forgotten, however, are pedestrians on the road. These accidents are extremely serious as the pedestrian has virtually no protection again an oncoming vehicle. If you were injured as a pedestrian, you have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit against the person who caused the accident. Please call our office to discuss your case in more detail.

Boating Accidents
If you were injured while on a boat or in a boating accident, you could have a personal injury case. Boat accidents cover a broad range of incidents, from jet ski accidents to swimmers injured by a boat to a slip and fall accident while on a boat. Depending on your specific case, you could be entitled to compensation for what you went through. You should not have to pay for medical expenses and lost income on your own if the accident was not your fault.

Bicycle Accidents
If you were injured in a bicycle accident, Freedman Law Group could help you! You could be entitled to compensation for what you went through, depending on the circumstances of your case. We could investigate your case and seek to hold the guilty individual accountable for what they did.

Motorcycle Accidents
With tens of thousands of people injured in motorcycle accidents every year, this is a serious situation for many victims. The injuries which can result from motorcycle accidents can be extremely devastating as motorcycle riders do not have much protection against other vehicles. If someone else was to blame in your specific case, they could be held responsible for their actions by filing a personal injury lawsuit against them.

Drunk Driving Accidents
Were you injured in a drunk driving accident? Not only could criminal charges be brought against the driver, but a personal injury lawsuit could be filed as well. You could be entitled to compensation for what you had to go through. No matter how complex your specific case appears to be, you can have peace of mind knowing that our lawyer is on your side fighting for your best interests.

ATV Rollover Accidents
ATV rollover accidents can result in serious injuries as the riders do not have the protection they would in other vehicles. An all-terrain vehicle could be made more dangerous if there was a defect in the manufacture or design of the vehicle. If this was the case, the person responsible could have a personal injury lawsuit filed against them. For more information about these types of cases, please do not hesitate to contact our office as soon as possible.

Texting While Driving Accidents
Using a cell phone to send and receive text messages behind the wheel is obviously dangerous, yet nearly half of all drivers admit to doing so. If you were injured in an accident caused by a distracted driver, let us help you take action to recover financial compensation and to hold the driver accountable for taking such risks with the lives of everyone on the road!

Wrongful Death
Did you lose a loved one in a wrongful death case? No amount of compensation will ever be able to make up for the death of a family member, but it is still important to hold the guilty individual responsible for what they have done. This could help ensure that the same tragedy does not affect another family and could get you financial help to cover funeral costs and lost income. Call to learn more.
