At Hilton & Somer, our dedicated personal injury representation spans:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

A car, truck, pedestrian, or motorcycle accident can occur in the blink of an eye. Bodily damage from these accidents, including traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries, are often severe and life changing.

If you or a loved one has suffered greatly because of an accident caused by a drunk driver, a fatigued semi-truck driver or careless bus driver, we can help. We also represent victims of aviation accidents involving both airplanes and helicopters.

Dangerous Properties

Our firm represents clients who have suffered serious injuries while on unsafe property. We hold negligent property owners or managers responsible for traumatic injuries caused by:

• Slip and fall injuries
• Amusement park accidents
• Dog bites
• Negligent security
• Carbon monoxide poisoning

Unsafe Products

Products with major design or manufacturing defects can result in serious bodily harm. We handle cases for people injured by defective power tools, dangerous toys and more.

Medical Malpractice

Healthcare professionals are not infallible. In fact, there are hundreds of incidents of medical malpractice throughout the country nearly every day. Unfortunately, these accidents are often serious and sometimes fatal. In these tragic circumstances, a wrongful death lawsuit can provide families with financial relief and a much-needed sense of justice.

Workers' Compensation

Workplace accidents can occur without warning and leave you incapacitated for a significant amount of time. When facing a prolonged recovery period, you and your family need a reliable source of income to cover your lost wages. If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, we can help. Depending upon the circumstances, our firm can also seek additional compensation from any third parties who may be at-fault.
