Amy was a part of my legal team during a very emotionally difficult civil case. She had incredible bedside manner and was extremely knowledgeable about the laws in this area. I felt comfortable knowing that she had my back in negotiations and that she was going to uncover all the information necessary. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.
Hospital malpractice has become the third leading cause of death in the United States after cancer and heart disease. Medical malpractice hugely impacts our communities and families.
Unlike many other types of trauma, catastrophic personal injuries cause permanent impairment, drastically altering your life. A brain or spinal cord injury, for example, can cause loss of motor function and/or personality changes.
A wrongful death occurs when a person dies as a result of the negligence or misconduct of another person, company, or entity. It can result from medical negligence, auto crash, or other trauma, and the families need support and guidance.
Injuries to a baby can occur at any stage of pregnancy, even during labor and delivery or just after birth. While some of injuries cannot be prevented, many tragically happen due to avoidable medical errors.
Many accidents on the Capital Beltway and throughout the Washington DC metropolitan area are the result of driver carelessness and recklessness, including speeding, drunk driving, texting and inattention.
