We are committed to providing effective, compassionate representation and securing justice for our clients in Dorchester County.

Personal Injury

In personal injury cases, our attorneys handle incidents involving car accidents, motorcycle crashes, truck collisions, pedestrian injuries, boating accidents, bicycle accidents, and train accidents. Major routes like Route 50, Route 16, and Route 331 are frequently traveled and can be prone to accidents that result in severe injuries. We also represent clients injured in Uber and Lyft accidents, navigating the intricacies of insurance claims and liability issues common in rideshare incidents. Additionally, we handle cases involving 15-passenger van accidents, school bus accidents, taxi accidents, and ATV accidents, ensuring that all victims receive the compensation they deserve.

Our firm is experienced in managing cases with catastrophic injuries, such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, and dog bites, which often require long-term medical care and rehabilitation. For families who have lost loved ones in fatal auto accidents, we provide support in pursuing wrongful death claims, helping them recover financial relief for funeral costs, lost income, and emotional damages.

Medical Malpractice

Our medical malpractice attorneys represent clients in cases involving surgical errors, birth injuries, medication mistakes, hospital negligence, and misdiagnosis. Residents in Dorchester County rely on University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Dorchester in Cambridge and other nearby facilities for healthcare services. Surgical errors can lead to devastating consequences, while birth injuries resulting from negligence during delivery can impact families for life. We handle cases of medication errors, including incorrect dosages and dangerous drug interactions, which can harm patients.

Hospital errors—such as poor sanitation, inadequate patient monitoring, and staffing issues—can seriously compromise patient safety. Misdiagnosis cases, where delayed or incorrect diagnoses lead to worsening conditions, are also a focus of our practice. We hold healthcare providers accountable, working to ensure victims of medical malpractice receive the compensation they need to recover.

Auto accident

In auto accident cases, we represent clients involved in car crashes, motorcycle collisions, truck accidents, bus accidents, and rideshare incidents involving Uber and Lyft. Large trucks and commercial vehicles traveling along Route 50 often contribute to severe accidents, resulting in significant injuries due to the size and weight of these vehicles.

Our attorneys handle claims involving multiple parties and insurance providers, securing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. For families pursuing wrongful death claims after losing a loved one in an accident, we offer compassionate guidance and legal support throughout the process.

Slip And Fall

Our premises liability attorneys handle cases of slip and fall accidents, trip and fall injuries, and Airbnb-related injuries, representing clients hurt due to unsafe property conditions. Property owners are responsible for maintaining safe premises, and we work to ensure they are held accountable for hazards such as wet floors, uneven pavements, and broken stairways.

Dorchester County’s abundant waterfront areas, including the Choptank River and Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, are popular for boating and outdoor activities, where accidents can occur. We represent clients injured in boating accidents and other recreational incidents, securing compensation for their injuries and associated costs.

Criminal defense

Criminal defense, DUI, and traffic violation cases are integral parts of our practice. Our criminal defense attorneys represent clients facing a range of charges, including DUI, drug crimes, assault, and other offenses.

We provide strong representation to protect clients’ rights, whether dealing with a minor traffic infraction or a more serious criminal charge. For those facing DUI charges, we offer legal guidance to help mitigate penalties, retain driving privileges, and minimize fines. We also represent clients in traffic violation cases, such as speeding, reckless driving, and license suspension, working to reduce fines, prevent points on driving records, and safeguard clients’ rights.

Workers’ Compensation

In workers’ compensation cases, we assist individuals who have been injured at work. Dorchester County’s major employers, such as Cambridge International, Valley Proteins, and Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay, present unique workplace hazards, especially in manufacturing, hospitality, and industrial environments. We handle workplace injury cases involving construction accidents, falls from heights, scaffolding incidents, electrocution, and chemical exposure.

Our attorneys advocate for clients exposed to toxic substances like benzene, ensuring they receive the medical care and financial support necessary to address their long-term health needs. Additionally, we support families pursuing compensation in workplace death cases, helping them recover funds for funeral expenses, lost financial support, and other associated losses.

Product Liability

Our firm also handles product liability cases, representing clients harmed by defective consumer products, industrial equipment, medical devices, and vehicles.

We hold manufacturers accountable for injuries caused by design flaws, manufacturing defects, or inadequate warnings, securing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. In addition, we handle cases involving chemical exposure, particularly in industrial settings, where victims may suffer from severe health issues related to toxic exposure.

Abuse Cases Of Nursing

We advocate for families in nursing home abuse cases, representing those whose loved ones have suffered from neglect, physical abuse, financial exploitation, or inadequate care in facilities such as Chesapeake Woods Center in Cambridge and other nursing homes across Dorchester County.

We work to ensure these facilities are held accountable for failing to provide safe, compassionate care. Additionally, we represent clients in cases involving police misconduct and sexual abuse, providing strong support to ensure that victims receive justice and that responsible parties are held accountable.

Death Cases

Wrongful death cases require both sensitivity and experience, and our attorneys are dedicated to helping families find justice after losing a loved one due to negligence or misconduct.

Whether the loss resulted from an auto accident, medical malpractice, or a workplace incident, we work to ensure that families receive compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, and emotional suffering.
