With compassion and decades of experience in divorce and family law, we develop creative strategies for achieving the best possible financial and emotional outcome for each client.
Child Support
If you are going through a divorce, your goals are different than in a personal injury case. While you may want to negotiate the most favorable monetary settlement, there are also other consideration, such as child support, child custody and visitation schedules, and the need to balance your objectives with the desire to preserve delicate family relationships.
If you lost a loved one to the negligence or misconduct of another, the pain can be great, as can the funeral and burial expenses and the loss of future income or support your family member would have provided. We can help you recover compensation for these losses and expenses through an action for wrongful death brought against the responsible party. In appropriate cases, when the death was the result of gross negligence or a willful act, we will pursue punitive damages as well, to punish the defendant and serve as an example to others. No amount of money may make up for your loss, but being forced to shoulder the financial burden instead of holding the other party accountable is simply unjust.
Traffic Violations
Commercial trucking is an integral part of the country’s economy, and truck traffic crisscrosses the state continuously throughout the day night, seven days a week. Commercial truckers have a duty to drive with care and watch out for others on the road, just like the rest of us, but the trucker has the added pressure of delivering the cargo to its destination on schedule. In order to make up for lost time, drivers of 18-wheelers may be prone to speeding, taking stimulants, or simply putting in too much time behind the wheel, any of which create a dangerous risk of a serious truck accident.
Will the fact that I have been declared disabled by another agency (such as the Veterans Administration or Workers Compensation) mean that I will win my Social Security disability case?

Manufacturers have a duty to consumers to only place products on the market that are safe for their intended use or any reasonably foreseeable use. When manufacturing defects, design defects or inadequate warnings lead to serious personal injury, the manufacturer can be held strictly liable for the damages caused. The products liability lawyers at Davis & Haymond, P.S.C. in Richmond and Irvine hold product makers liable for the harm they cause. We are not afraid to go up against the corporate giants and their teams of lawyers when the public safety and the lives of our clients are at stake.
Medical Malpractice
We entrust our health care, in fact our very lives, to the medical profession, and we expect doctors and hospitals to exercise a reasonable degree of competence and care in our treatment, given the level of education and training the healthcare providers have or should have had. When the members of the medical community fail to meet that standard, they can and should be held accountable for the damage they have caused. In Richmond, Irvine, Berea and surrounding areas, the medical malpractice attorneys at Davis & Haymond help victims of surgical errors, birth injuries and other forms of medical negligence recover compensation for the harm which has been done to them. Our lawyers represent patients injured by their doctors in numerous ways, including...

Chapter 7 is also called a liquidation bankruptcy. It usually provides the most comprehensive relief for debtors. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy can usually eliminate your credit card debt, medical bills, deficiency balances on repossessed vehicles, and many other types of unsecured debts. There are limitations on who can file Chapter 7, but most people we talk to DO still qualify for a Chapter 7 filing.
Foreclosure
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is the second most common type of filing, and it requires you to pay a percentage of what you owe to the court over a period of three to five years. Sometimes, it is the best option if you are facing a foreclosure action on your home, because it allows you a little extra time to catch up on your mortgage while still remaining in possession of the property.
