Life altering injuries at the fault of another requires the highest quality legal representation. It does not matter whether you sustained your injury because of substandard medical care, a car accident or you slipped and fell. You need compensation to cover your expenses and losses.
Attorney Jeffrey Strauss goes after the legal resources you need to recover. He then builds a case to secure the compensation you need. His firm has the resources to track down the facts of your injuries, investigate evidence and negotiate with insurance companies. If the insurance company does not make an adequate offer, he goes to court to sue for the compensation appropriate to cover your injuries, losses and rehabilitation.
Families may face the heart wrenching circumstances of a wrongful death of a person they love. His ability to empathize with family members and help them to understand their options at a time of emotional turmoil is a step above. He understands that when family looses the enjoyment of their loved one, they also loose any contributions the person would have made to the family in the future. If you are in this situation, he wants you to know you have rights and he can help you secure them.
