Slip and Fall

If you have been injured by a slip and fall accident, you may be compensated for your injuries. Employers and property owners have a duty to provide a safe environment and make you aware of any potential hazards. Often, a slip and fall accident is caused by another person’s negligence and the injuries can be severe. Your accident may have happened because of an object on the ground or even a wet or slippery surface. Whether the incident occurred in a supermarket, retail store, workplace or other privately-owned location, you have rights and may have a premises liability case. Steve Reilly helps individuals who were injured in slip and fall accidents get the settlement they deserve.

Probate/Estate and Trust Administration

When someone you love has passed away, it can be hard to assume responsibility for tying up all the loose ends of their estate. When the loved one passes away without leaving a will, the personal representative’s task can be overwhelming. The personal representative is in charge of notifying the estate’s creditors, deciding which claims against the estate are valid, and creating inventories and final reports for the court to account for all the property of the deceased. If you have been named a “personal representative” for a loved one’s estate and feel that you need help during the probate process, Miner Lemon & Walston would be glad to put our expertise to work for you.

In Virginia and DC, you can turn to attorney Ben Glass for the best information available before you make your claim or exhaust your administrative appeal efforts. Contact Ben Glass today.

Disability Claims Appeals

In addition to the physical and emotional conditions that make it impossible for you to work, dealing the the Social Security Disability Application process can be time-consuming, frustrating and complex.A Social Security Disability applicant must file an initial claims application which is normally denied by the Social Security Administation. A disability claims appeal, called a Request for Reconsideration, must be filed within 90 days of the initial denial or the claim will be barred. The Request for Reconsideration is also usually denied and a Reuqest for a Hearing must be filed. Failing to timely file a disability claims appeal can be fatal to your claim. Statistics show that Social Security applicants with an experienced lawyer have a better chance of success and at Cavey and Barrett who help you through all phases of the Social Security Disabiltiy Claims process.

Tractor Trailer Accidents

Any automobile accident has catastrophic potential; however, an accident involving an 80,000 pound tractor trailer truck increases the risk of not just critical injury but death. Often, tractor trailer drivers are contracted by large companies who, when a critical injury or wrongful death results from the negligence of one of their drivers, would rather protect their own financial interests than compensate you for your pain and suffering. Jason Schultz isn’t afraid to fight large commercial corporations or insurance companies, especially when they are trying to get away with paying you less than you need to cover medical costs, irreparable physical damage, and lost wages.
