Personal Injury
Injured? Let us handle the legal process while you focus on recovery.
An unexpected accident can change your life in an instant. In addition to dealing with pain and medical treatment, you may suddenly be facing medical bills, time away from work, transportation problems, and calls from insurance companies—all while trying to recover.
At the Law Office of Angela Furman, we help injured clients understand their rights, navigate the insurance and claims process, and pursue fair compensation for injuries caused by the negligence of others. We provide personal attention throughout the process, so you know who is handling your case and what is happening every step of the way.
No Attorney’s Fee Unless We Recover for You
Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency-fee basis. That means you do not pay an attorney’s fee upfront. Our attorney’s fee is paid as a percentage of the recovery we obtain for you. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney’s fee.
Types of Cases
Personal injury cases we handle.
Personal injury claims can arise from many different circumstances. We assist clients with matters involving:
Car Accidents
Injuries caused by negligent, distracted, impaired, or reckless drivers.
Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Claims involving trucks, delivery vehicles, and other commercial vehicles.
Motorcycle Accidents
Injuries involving motorcycles and other motorists.
Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents
Injuries to pedestrians and cyclists caused by negligent drivers.
Slip, Trip & Fall Accidents
Injuries resulting from dangerous or unsafe conditions on another person’s property.
Premises Liability
Injuries caused by hazardous conditions that a property owner or responsible party failed to reasonably address.
Other Negligence-Related Injuries
If you were injured because of someone else’s actions or failure to exercise reasonable care, contact us to discuss whether you may have a claim.
Beyond the Bills
More than medical bills.
The effects of an accident are not always reflected in a stack of medical bills. An injury can interfere with your ability to work, care for your family, sleep comfortably, participate in activities you enjoy, or simply go about your normal daily routine.
Depending on the circumstances of your case, a personal injury claim may seek compensation for losses such as:
- Medical expenses and treatment
- Future medical care
- Lost wages and loss of income
- Pain and suffering
- Physical limitations
- Disruption to your daily life
- Other losses resulting from your injuries
Every case is different, and the damages available depend on the individual facts and circumstances.
Our Role
We deal with the details.
Building a personal injury claim involves much more than submitting medical bills to an insurance company. Medical records must be obtained and reviewed, treatment and expenses documented, insurance coverage investigated, evidence preserved, and the full impact of the injury evaluated.
Our office handles the details involved in developing and presenting your claim, including communicating with insurance companies, gathering medical records and bills, documenting your treatment and losses, and preparing a comprehensive demand for compensation.
If a fair resolution cannot be reached through negotiations, we can discuss the next steps available to pursue your claim.
A Word of Caution
Before you talk to the insurance company.
After an accident, an insurance adjuster may contact you quickly and ask for a statement, medical authorization, or information about your injuries. Remember that the insurance company is evaluating the claim on behalf of its insured and its own interests.
Before giving a recorded statement, signing documents, or accepting a settlement, consider speaking with an attorney so you understand your rights and the potential consequences of your decisions.
An early settlement may seem appealing, particularly when bills are accumulating, but once a claim is settled and a release is signed, you generally cannot return later to seek additional compensation if your injuries turn out to be more serious than initially believed.
Personal Attention
Personal attention from a small firm.
Personal injury cases can take time, particularly while medical treatment is ongoing. During that process, you should not be left wondering what is happening with your claim.
Our small-firm approach means personalized attention and consistent communication. Angela remains directly involved in your case and is supported by a paralegal with more than 25 years of legal experience, including extensive experience handling personal injury matters.
We work together to keep your claim organized, monitor its progress, gather the documentation necessary to support it, and keep you informed along the way.
