Personal Injury
A personal injury claim is your legal right to compensation when you are hurt because of another’s actions and the accident can be traced back to the negligent actions or failure to act of another person. In those cases, the injured person may be able to pursue compensation for their injuries and losses connected to the accident.

Slip and Falls– If you were injured in a serious fall on someone else’s property, you should call a personal injury lawyer who can give you their opinion about your legal rights
Mediation
In mediation, the parties involved in a dispute sit down with a neutral third person (the mediator) who is trained to help people come to a mutually satisfactory solution to the conflict.
Mediation is a form of “alternative dispute resolution.” It is a popular, widespread, and often more cost-effective means of settling differences between parties prior to litigation, during litigation, and even post-litigation.
Brett offers mediation services in employment and personal injury matters. Brett has represented both plaintiffs and defendants throughout his career. Thus, he is able to see all parties’ perspectives in attempting to assist those parties in resolving cases prior to trial.
