As an attorney, I understand how important it is to thoroughly understand an area of law. Too many lawyers try to be all things to all clients. My firm focuses on clients whose bodies or lives have been damaged by the negligence or recklessness of others. This page describes the specific ways I help my clients.
Automobile and Truck Accidents
Car and truck accidents are an unfortunate fact of life. Accidents can cause lost wages, serious personal injury, and lingering medical issues. Without a representative who understands the insurance companies and how they work, you could find yourself in a very bad bargaining position. I know how the insurance companies work, and I can make sure you receive what you deserve for your loss.
Insurance
Insurance companies don't make money by paying out on your claims - their interest is in minimizing pay-outs. As an insurance customer, though, you are entitled to receive fair compensation for your damages to yourself, to your family, and to your property. I have over seventeen years of experience fighting for my clients' rights against big insurance companies. I can help you get the compensation you deserve.
Legal Malpractice
If an attorney didn't do an adequate job in representing your rights, you may be entitled to have the attorney make good your losses. Unlike many lawyers, I am not afraid to take on legal malpractice claims. If an attorney's negligence means your case hasn't turned out the way you'd hoped, contact me to discuss whether you might have a malpractice claim.
Litigation and Appeals
An effective attorney has to be willing to take your case as far as it needs to go to get you the best possible results. I am ready to take your case to court, and if needed and we agree on it, I will appeal your case.
Medical Malpractice
Medical professionals are held to a high standard of performance because so much is at stake. Sometimes, a health care worker fails to act in a patient's best interests. Whether the failure is deliberate or negligent, the results can range from serious health complications to tragic family losses. If you or a loved one received inadequate or inaccurate care from a health care professional, contact me to discuss your rights.
Nursing Home Law
Nursing home residents are vulnerable citizens, and can be taken advantage of by unscrupulous staff members or other parties. If you or someone you know resides in a nursing home and you suspect mistreatment, abuse, or other problems, contact me for an analysis of your case.
Personal Injury
Jeff Jones represents individuals and their families involved in serious injuries or deaths related to car or truck accidents. Mr. Jones' detailed understanding of automobile, insurance and liability laws means that he can navigate through the different sources of recovery available to car accident victims and their families. His knowledge of the insurance industry enables those victims to collect from the parties who caused them harm.
Products Liability
Defective products and equipment cause injuries and deaths every day in this country. From defective vehicles to inadequate safety guards on industrial machines to toys with small parts, I can help you and your family pursue the manufacturer and distributors for compensation for the injuries they may have caused.
Slip and Fall
If you have fallen on a slippery or badly-maintained surface, you know how painful and serious the resulting injuries can be. The property owner is responsible to maintain safe premises, and in most instances, you may have a claim against the owner and their insurance company covering the property.
Workplace Injuries
Workplace accidents are a common source of serious disability for innocent workers. Often, workplace safety rules have not been followed. Several different insurance companies and at-fault parties may be involved in such an injury. In such cases, a thorough investigation is necessary to identify potential rights and remedies. I can help you through the process and receive the help you are entitled to.
Wrongful Death
If you have lost a loved one in an accident or as the result of an accident, I can represent your interests against the parties at fault and their insurance companies to seek damages on your behalf. Nothing can bring back your loved one, but I can help hold the right parties accountable.
