Legal assistance after a serious accident
At Wagner Workers Compensation & Personal Injury Lawyers, our Jasper personal injury lawyers assist clients in cases involving:
- Traffic accidents. While you might think the insurance company will handle all payments after a car accident or motorcycle accident, that is frequently not the case. You may be offered less than your case is worth, or the insurer may unjustly deny or delay payment. After any type of vehicle crash, from truck accidents to pedestrian accidents, call an attorney right away to help protect your claim. We also help with claims against common carriers, such as busses and trains.
- Boating or recreational accidents. Boating accidents are frightfully common on lakes and rivers in Jasper, as are other types of recreational accidents. Perhaps you or a loved one was injured at a theme park, playground, playing sports or riding a bike. If your injuries were caused by someone else, you may have a personal injury claim.
- Premises liability. Whether it was the result of a slip and fall or negligent security, if you sustain injuries on someone else’s property, you could be entitled to compensation. Property owners, including public shops and private residences, are required to keep safe premises and warn visitors of hazards.
- Product liability. Defective products cause hundreds of injuries, illnesses and deaths in consumers every year. Whether it was a dangerous drug, defective car or bad food, we are here to offer you full-service assistance.
- Nursing home abuse. You never intended to leave your loved one in the care of negligent nursing home staff. But, when abuse or neglect occurs within an assisted-living facility, you need to fight to protect your elderly relative or friend. Our lawyers can help.
