Catastrophic Personal Injury / Death

Animal Attacks | Dog Bites

Have you been attacked by a pit bull dog in Maryland? Have you been injured or attacked by a dangerous dog or animal in Virginia?

Did you know the owners of animals such as dogs have a duty, in the event their animals have a prior propensity toward violence, to undertake safety measures to prevent future attacks or dog bites? Further, in Maryland, owners may be held strictly liable for harm caused by certain breeds of dogs.

Slip-and-Fall Injuries

Washington, DC-area winters can get icy. Even when it rains, keeping your footing can get dicey and result in a slip or fall. Maybe you were walking indoors with no reason to be concerned that you might slip and fall — but it happened, and now you’re injured.

You need to talk with a lawyer at Bob Katz Law Firm so you can explain your DC falling accident and get help. You may be entitled to compensation for your injury, medical expenses, lost wages, or even pain and suffering. Call Bob Katz Law today.

Frequently Asked Questions

One of the most frequent questions that I receive from clients is with regard to the value of their case: "How much is my car accident injury case worth"? Judges will look to a variety of factors in determining the value of your case in court, such as: (1) the amount of medical bills, (2) additional economic loss, such as lost wages, (3) the damage to the vehicles, (4) the causal connection between your injuries and the accident, (5) the severity of your injuries, (6) the reasonableness and necessity of the medical treatment that you received and (6) the non-economic damages sustained which includes your pain, suffering and inconvenience. The insurance companies will look at similar factors when evaluating your case.

All cases are different! No two cases are exactly alike. While medical bills and lost wages are generally straightforward to tally, the non-economic portion of claims (i.e. pain and suffering) will vary from case to case. Additionally, there is no standard chart that a judge uses while he is listening to your case to determine how much you should receive for your pain and suffering. This is why it is so important to contact an experienced attorney, who is familiar with the court system and is frequently in a courtroom trying cases just like yours, to provide advice on an appropriate and realistic value for your case.

Be wary of online calculators and websites that provide you an instant estimated value of your case, or, relying on the settlement value that your friends mother received on her case—every case is different! Verdicts can also vary drastically just from one county to the next in Maryland. So, if youre thinking that the insurance company has made you too low of an offer on your case and you deserve more, you need to reach out to an attorney for an evaluation of your case.

If you're injured due to someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to various forms of compensation. This can include medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering remuneration. The exact amount you might receive will depend on factors such as the severity of your injuries, their impact on your daily life, and the overall extent of the damage. We work closely with you to fully understand your situation and advocate for the maximum reimbursement you deserve. Our goal is to provide you with the necessary support throughout the legal process and achieve the justice you're seeking.

While it is possible to handle a personal injury claim on your own, having a lawyer who has significant experience in personal injury cases can significantly enhance the outcome. Personal injury cases often involve intricate negotiations with insurance companies and navigating complex legal jargon. An attorney can assist you in managing these challenges, safeguarding your rights, and working to maximize your benefits. Effective legal representation can lead to much better results compared to handling the claim independently. We're here to guide you through every step of the process, offering the expertise and support you need, allowing you to concentrate on your recovery while we handle all the legal details of your case.

Gathering strong and compelling evidence is crucial for proving your personal injury claim. Important types of evidence include medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and photographs of the scene or your injuries. Additionally, documentation of lost wages and any communications with insurance companies can be vital. Our team will assist you in compiling, organizing, and presenting this evidence effectively to strengthen your case. As we meticulously prepare and diligently work on your case, we thoroughly address all aspects of your claim.

A common concern is the cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer. Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis, which means you don't have to pay any upfront fees. We only receive payment if we successfully recover compensation for you. This approach allows you to pursue your case without financial stress and ensures you have access to high-quality legal representation. According to the Maryland State Bar Association, many personal injury lawyers use this method to alleviate the financial burden of legal action. We are committed to advocating for your rights without imposing any financial strain during this challenging period. This approach allows you to concentrate on your recovery while we manage the legal complexities on your behalf.
