Assault
If you have been injured due to an assault and battery, there may be two different types of claims against the person who injured you, criminal and civil. In a criminal case, the assailant may be prosecuted by the government. If the party is found guilty of assault and battery, he or she may be punished. Punishment may be imprisonment, probation, restitution or other types of punishment as determined by the court. Alternatively, in a civil claim for assault and battery, compensation for the victim’s injuries is the goal of the case, not punishment. As a victim, you may have a civil claim against the person who harmed you for damages sustained due to your injuries. If you succeed in your civil case, you may be awarded compensatory damages from the defendant.

His experience includes multimillion dollar commercial transactions to the first time homebuyer. His experience includes trying custody and matrimonial cases, personal injury, and sexual discrimination cases with near million dollar verdicts to resolving small claim cases.

Employment Law

Workers Compensation
Most individuals who are injured at work are prohibited from filing ordinary personal injury lawsuits against their employers. Instead, injured workers are generally required to file a claim under the state’s workers compensation procedure. An injured railroad worker must bring a claim for benefits under the Federal Employer’s Liability Act (FELA) for compensation for his injuries. FELA is similar to many state workers’ compensation systems with the exception that a railroad employee must be able to prove some level of employer negligence in order to make a recovery. In comparison, most state systems are based upon no-fault theories of recovery where neither the negligence of the employer or the employee is examined.

Finance Law

Do you need advice on your legal rights under bankruptcy law and the possibilities of a brighter financial outlook? Do you want the harassing phone calls from creditors to stop?
Foreclosure
If your earnings are above the threshold for Chapter 7 bankruptcy or you own a home with considerable equity, your best legal option may be filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Under Chapter 13 bankruptcy, our law firm will help you establish a plan to reorganize your debt and pay a manageable portion over a three-to-five-year period. Filing for Chapter 13 helps people avoid foreclosure and keep their car from being repossessed. We can help you determine whether Chapter 13 bankruptcy is appropriate for you.
