Web Site Disclaimer

1. The visitor to this Website is should read the text material in order to to gain some insight into what lies ahead for the person injured due to auto, bus, train, construction site and pedestrian accidents, medical malpractice, defective products and all kinds of wrongful death cases.

   To recover full and fair compensation for continuing injuries and resultant loss of pay, income, and promotions is a complex problem. Reading this Website will give the reader a better sense of the steps to be taken and the skill, time and efforts needed.

   The reader cannot and should not rely on this Website as a basis for making legal decisions about the steps or direction to be taken for his or her own case.

2. Retaining a lawyer to recover full and fair compensation for your injuries is often one of the most important decisions of your life. The reader should examine our lawyers' background, education, experience and professional affiliations, which are presented in this Website. You should read about some of our recent cases, which are also presented in this Website. And you should ask us any other questions about us and our practice; we will give you frank and truthful answers to your questions.

   You should meet personally with us, to make sure that we all get along, and are "a good fit" for each other. It can take a substantial period of time to recover your full and fair compensation. We will be working together, hopefully in a dedicated and cooperative relationship, for that period of time. We never charge any fees for an initial conference, nor is there any obligation on your part to select us as your attorney.

3. To retain us as your lawyer, there must first occur an explanation of how we will work together, what our obligations are, what your obligations are, and then we will both sign a legal and binding contingency fee retainer agreement. That is the only way you can retain us as your lawyer.

   This is the only way in we will begin to act as your lawyer. Before that retainer agreement is signed by both of us, we are not your lawyers. Before that agreement is signed, we may discuss your case in general terms, but until we sign that agreement and do the investigation and research necessary to ascertain all the facts in your case, we cannot and will not give you a meaningful legal opinion as to your case.

   Reading our Website and discussing your case with us does not mean that we are representing you as your lawyers, and until we are legally representing you in your case, as evidenced by a signed and binding contingency fee retainer agreement, nothing we say to you should be construed as a legal opinion or a suggestion as to legal or other actions you should take in your own case.

   You should take no legal action in your case based on information in our Website, nor is anything in our Website intended to be or constitutes a legal opinion or advice as to actions to take in your case.
