If you’ve just suffered a serious injury due to someone’s negligent actions, the following piece of advice is likely one that countless friends and family members have offered: “Get a lawyer!”
Retaining an attorney is important, of course, but you shouldn’t settle for just any attorney. You need to make sure the one you partner with is experienced in handling similar injuries to yours.
Luckily, at Campbell & Associates, our team of Grand Island personal injury lawyers have helped countless New Yorkers receive the compensation they deserve. Here’s an overview of our various practice areas:
If you’ve suffered a serious injury because another person or organization was reckless or negligent, you shouldn’t be left to handle the aftermath of that injury alone. Personal injury lawsuits are about helping you cover expenses and getting you the resources you need to get your life back.
If you’ve lost a loved one because of someone else’s irresponsible behavior, the attorneys at Campbell & Associates may be able to help you as well. We understand that such an event is indescribably painful, which is why we’re committed to supporting you while fighting to hold the responsible party (or parties) accountable.
From the Grand Island Bridge to the iconic Niagara Scenic Parkway, Grand Island is home to several busy roadways. But as you might expect, heavy traffic is often the cause of serious car accidents. Even if you’re a very safe driver, you can’t always protect yourself and your loved ones from other drivers.
We’ve successfully represented clients who have been harmed in a variety of different accident types, such as:
Drunk driving accidents
If you’ve been hurt in a motor vehicle accident you don’t see listed above, do not hesitate to get in touch. There’s a good chance we’ll still be able to help.
When you schedule a free consultation with us, our attorneys will discuss your case with you to make sure it falls within the scope of what we do. And even if it does not, we may be able to refer you to another law office better equipped to help you.
We trust doctors and other medical professionals to do what’s best for our health. And even though most are careful and competent, there are, unfortunately, many negligent providers out there as well.
When a medical professional fails to act carefully, the consequences can be devastating. In some cases, it’s not even the conduct of any one professional but the negligence of a hospital or medical office as a whole that leads to serious injury.
Cases involving medical malpractice are notorious for being complex and difficult to handle, but our team has what it takes. We’ve handled countless malpractice cases and have helped victims like you get the compensation they need to cover additional medical expenses, make up for lost wages, and get their lives back on track.
Just as we trust medical professionals to do what’s best for our health, we trust the caregivers in nursing homes and other elder care facilities to do what’s best for our parents, grandparents, and other elderly relatives.
Unfortunately, it’s a similar story: Some of these facilities neglect to give residents the care and compassion they deserve. Some nursing home employees even deliberately abuse vulnerable residents, believing that they won’t be able to report the abuse or fight back. Our attorneys can help you fight for them.
However, if your loved one can’t tell you about the abuse in the first place, you may be unsure of whether neglect or abuse has occurred or not. If you’ve noticed any of the following when visiting or talking to your loved one, it may be a sign that they are being abused, receiving inadequate care, or both:
Even if you aren’t completely sure if your loved one is being abused or not, we invite you to reach out to us. One of our experienced attorneys serving in Grand Island can discuss your case with you and help you decide what to do next.
“Workplace accidents” is a very broad injury category. It can include nearly any type of injury sustained in any industry. And even though “accident” is in the name, our attorneys sometimes represent clients whose injuries have been caused by repetitive motions and not by a single, isolated incident.
While the following list is not comprehensive, these are some of the most common types of workplace accidents and injuries our attorneys have dealt with:
Many people believe that being injured at work means they can only file a workers’ compensation claim, not a lawsuit. That is only sometimes true. In many cases, if there was no negligence on your employer’s part, you should only file a workers’ comp claim, as the workers’ compensation program is a no-fault system.
However, if your injury was the result of clear negligence on your employer’s part, many personal injury attorneys would advise you to file a personal injury lawsuit. Each case is unique, so you should discuss the specifics of your case with a personal injury attorney serving in Grand Island before making any decisions.
Many workplace injuries our attorneys see are the result of construction accidents. However, because the construction industry has such unique dangers, construction accidents are often viewed in their own separate category.
Part of that is because, in the construction world, the negligence leading to your injury isn’t necessarily negligence on the part of your employer. Subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and other parties are sometimes found responsible.
Whether you’re visiting a friend or a public place, you have a right to a safe environment. If you get hurt on another person’s property because of dangerous conditions the property owner knew (or should have known) about, we may be able to file a premises liability claim on your behalf.
Any kind of unsafe conditions can lead to a premises liability claim. Many of our clients have come to us after tripping on poorly maintained stairs or sidewalks, for instance, as well as being bitten by property owners’ dogs and getting hurt because of a business’s lack of security.
The time after a major injury is a uniquely vulnerable one. You may be facing considerable physical pain while also confronting the uncertainty of your future. And if you’re like many injury victims, it might simply be too hard to determine what to do next.
Fortunately, with the services of a personal injury attorney serving in Grand Island to back you up, you don’t have to navigate such a disorienting time alone.
At Campbell & Associates, we put our experience to work for you, and our results speak for themselves. If you’ve been injured, we want to hear from you! Contact us online or give us a call to schedule a free consultation.
