Testimonials
- A few years ago I was shopping in a large chain store when I slipped in some linseed oil that had been spilled on the floor. I ended up seriously injuring my right shoulder and I eventually needed surgery...
- Robert Nutting - My husband and I were in a serious car accident in which the other driver crossed into our lane and hit us head on. My husband broke his back and I hurt my shoulder so bad that I needed surgery. The first lawyer we hired told us our case was only worth a small amount of money...
- Cheryl H - I came from my home in the United Kingdom to work at a children’s summer camp in northern New Hampshire. Not long after I arrived, I was bitten in the face by a large Akita dog.
- Evie Newbold - Several years ago I was rear-ended while driving and suffered a back injury. The back injury got worse and worse and eventually I was unable to continue working as a landscape architect. Needless to say I was very concerned about my future...
- Rick Kelley - As painful as my injuries and rehabilitation were, I truly did not consider them to be part of the nightmare, because they were, after all, accidents. The actual nightmares were delivered through the callous indifference of insurance companies and the sheer insanity of the Workers Compensation system.

The Elements of Negligence
Negligence is the failure to exercise reasonable care with harm resulting. Reasonable care is generally defined by what the average person in our society would do or not do under the same circumstances. In a civil case, such as a personal injury case, including automobile accident cases, medical malpractice cases, product liability cases and premises liability cases to name a few, there are specific elements of negligence that must be established to make the case. . These elements are “duty”, “breach”, “causation”, and “damages” and are explained in more detail in the article on our website. To continue go here
