I learned this area of law many years ago when I first started and have never stopped. There's no worry like money worry and I enjoy helping people get back on the right financial tract when unemployment, medical expenses, credit cards or a collapsing housing market take their toll.
This area of law covers representing clients who have been injured by others in all the situations that do not involve motor vehicles.
Vail Kaufman has been a resident of suburban Maryland since his family moved here when he was seven years old. He and his wife, Kathy, still live in the area, having raised five children into adulthood. Vail Kaufman has been passionate about helping clients obtain the relief they need from legal dilemmas for more than 25 years. As a highly experienced trial lawyer, Mr. Kaufman never fails to pursue aggressive litigation when it is in his clients' best interests. His skill and success in trials also make him a powerful negotiator who refuses to tolerate bad-faith tactics from insurance companies and others who are liable to compensate his clients.
