Premises of Liability

Premises liability holds property owners or occupiers legally responsible for injuries that occur due to unsafe conditions on their property. The key elements include the owner's duty of care to maintain a safe environment, which varies based on the visitor's status (invitee, licensee, or trespasser), a breach of that duty, causation linking the unsafe condition to the injury, the owner's notice of the hazard, and the damages suffered by the injured party. Claims often involve accidents like slips, falls, or other hazards caused by negligence in maintaining or securing the premises.

Traffic Defense

Misdemeanor traffic defense involves defending individuals charged with minor traffic-related offenses such as speeding, reckless driving, or driving without a valid license. These offenses are less severe than felonies and typically result in penalties such as fines, license points, community service, or short-term jail time (up to one year). Defense strategies may challenge evidence like radar accuracy or procedural errors and often aim to reduce penalties or negotiate plea agreements.

Felony Defense

Felony criminal defense involves defending individuals charged with serious crimes such as murder, rape, or drug trafficking. Felonies carry more severe consequences, including long-term imprisonment, large fines, or even the death penalty. Defense strategies in these cases are more complex, often involving detailed investigations, expert witnesses, and challenging the prosecution's evidence to create reasonable doubt, with a focus on mitigating the harsh penalties that felonies typically involve.

Wrongful Death

Wrongful death occurs when a person dies due to the negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions of another, and a legal claim is brought by the deceased's survivors. The key elements include proving that the defendant owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and that the breach directly caused the death. The survivors must demonstrate damages such as financial loss, emotional suffering, or loss of companionship. Typically, close family members, like a spouse or children, have the standing to file the claim, seeking compensation for the impact of the death on their lives.

Misdemeanor Defense

Misdemeanor defense involves representing individuals charged with less serious criminal offenses, such as petty theft, simple assault, vandalism, or disorderly conduct. These offenses are punishable by fines, probation, community service, or jail time typically not exceeding one year. Defense strategies may include challenging the evidence, proving the defendant's innocence, negotiating plea deals, or arguing for reduced penalties. While misdemeanors are less severe than felonies, they can still result in lasting consequences, such as a criminal record, making an effective defense important for mitigating the impact on the defendant's life.
