We offer a comprehensive array of legal services across multiple practice areas, including personal injury, birth injury, medical malpractice, auto accidents, slip and fall, criminal defense, traffic violations, DUI, workers’ compensation, and wrongful death.

Additionally, we have extensive experience handling complex cases involving product liability, premises liability, nursing home abuse, chemical exposure, and police misconduct. We are dedicated to helping clients in Kent County secure justice and fair compensation, leveraging our knowledge of the local community and the unique challenges faced by its residents.

Personal Injury

In personal injury cases, we represent clients who have been injured in various incidents, including car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck collisions, pedestrian injuries, boating accidents, train accidents, and bicycle accidents. Key routes like Route 213, Route 291, and Route 298 frequently experience traffic and accidents that result in severe injuries. We also handle cases involving Uber and Lyft accidents, which often involve multiple insurance policies and complex liability issues.

Additionally, we represent clients involved in 15-passenger van accidents, school bus accidents, taxi accidents, and ATV accidents, ensuring that all transportation-related accident victims receive full compensation for their medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Our attorneys are skilled in handling serious injuries, such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, and dog bites, which often require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. For families dealing with the loss of a loved one in auto accident deaths, we provide compassionate guidance in pursuing wrongful death claims, helping them secure compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering.

Medical Malpractice

Our medical malpractice attorneys handle cases involving surgical errors, birth injuries, medication errors, hospital negligence, and misdiagnosis. Kent County residents rely on healthcare providers like University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown for medical services, and we handle cases involving errors and negligence at this and other local facilities.

Surgical errors can lead to serious complications, while birth injuries resulting from negligent care during delivery can have lifelong effects on families. We also represent clients in cases of medication errors, where incorrect dosages or dangerous drug interactions have caused harm. Hospital errors—including unsanitary conditions, inadequate monitoring, and undertrained staff—can greatly affect patient safety. Misdiagnosis cases, where delayed or incorrect diagnoses worsen conditions, are another area where our attorneys advocate for clients. We work diligently to hold healthcare providers accountable and ensure victims of medical malpractice receive the compensation they deserve.

Auto accident

In auto accident cases, we represent clients involved in car crashes, motorcycle collisions, truck accidents, bus accidents, and rideshare incidents with Uber and Lyft. Truck accidents, especially on rural roads and highways like Route 213, can lead to catastrophic injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles.

Our attorneys handle complex claims involving multiple parties and insurers, working to secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We also support families pursuing wrongful death claims after fatal accidents, providing compassionate guidance throughout the legal process.

Slip And Fall

Our premises liability attorneys represent clients injured due to unsafe conditions on both commercial and residential properties. We handle cases involving slip and fall injuries, trip and fall accidents, and Airbnb-related injuries, holding property owners accountable for hazards such as wet floors, uneven pavements, and broken railings.

Kent County’s waterfront areas, such as Rock Hall Harbor and Betterton Beach, are popular for recreational activities where boating and water-related accidents can occur. We represent clients injured in boating accidents and other recreational incidents, ensuring they receive fair compensation for their injuries and related costs.

Criminal defense

Criminal defense, DUI, and traffic violations are other essential areas of our practice. Our criminal defense attorneys provide strong representation for clients facing charges from DUI and drug crimes to assault and other offenses. We work to protect clients’ rights, whether they are dealing with a minor traffic infraction or a more serious criminal charge. For clients facing DUI charges, we offer experienced guidance to help minimize penalties, retain driving privileges, and reduce fines.

Our firm also handles traffic violation cases, including speeding, reckless driving, and license suspension, working to prevent points on driving records and protect our clients’ rights.

Workers’ Compensation

In workers’ compensation cases, we assist individuals who have been injured on the job. Major employers in Kent County include Washington College, LaMotte Company, and Gillespie & Son, Inc., where employees may face unique workplace risks, especially in education, manufacturing, and construction sectors. We handle cases involving construction injuries, falls from heights, scaffolding falls, electrocution, and chemical exposure, advocating for clients’ right to medical benefits, wage replacement, and vocational rehabilitation.

We also represent clients exposed to dangerous substances like benzene, ensuring they receive the medical care and financial support necessary to address long-term health impacts. Additionally, we support families pursuing compensation for workplace deaths, helping them recover funds for funeral expenses, lost income, and other associated losses.

Product Liability

Our product liability attorneys handle cases involving defective consumer products, industrial equipment, medical devices, and vehicles. These cases can arise from design flaws, manufacturing errors, or inadequate warnings, and we hold manufacturers accountable for the harm caused by unsafe products.

We also represent clients in cases involving chemical exposure, particularly in manufacturing settings, ensuring they receive compensation for medical expenses and lost wages due to toxic exposure.

Abuse Cases Of Nursing

In nursing home abuse cases, we advocate for families whose loved ones have suffered from neglect, physical abuse, financial exploitation, or inadequate care in facilities like Heron Point of Chestertown and other nursing homes across Kent County. We hold these facilities accountable for failing to provide safe, respectful care, ensuring that residents’ rights are protected.

Additionally, we represent clients in cases involving police misconduct and sexual abuse, providing strong legal 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 pursue justice after losing a loved one due to negligence or misconduct.

These cases may arise from auto accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, or other tragic events, and we work to ensure that surviving family members receive compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering. We understand the profound impact of such a loss and are committed to guiding families through these challenging times.
