Why You Need an Attorney

After an accident, you may be contacted by an insurance company or wonder if you should be contacting them. But it is best to talk to a lawyer first, as your lawyer can protect your rights and ensure your case is handled fairly so that you get every dollar you are entitled to receive. Without an attorney on your side, the insurance company will try to minimize the injuries and losses you suffered, as they are not looking out for you. They are looking out for their bottom line. We at Scott, Ray, Pemberton & Goll, PLLC, look out for you.

Serious Injuries

Our firm represents clients who have suffered many different types of devastating injuries, including:

Brain injuries: Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) often occur without visible trauma to the head. However, these are very serious injuries. Concussions, contrecoup injuries, and other TBIs can leave a victim suffering symptoms for a lifetime.
Spinal cord injuries: The level of paralysis due to a spinal cord injury depends on where the injury to the spinal cord is located. The higher up on the spinal cord, the more total the paralysis. It is always important to be evaluated by a medical professional, as spinal cord injuries may not be immediately apparent.
Amputations: Losing a limb in an accident leaves a victim grieving and adapting to a new way of life. Car accidents, workplace accidents, and other accidents can sever a limb or severely damage a body part to the point that it needs to be amputated.
Broken and crushed bones: A fracture or a crushed bone may require surgery to fix. This may leave a victim unable to use a hand or arm or walk due to a broken leg or other bones, drastically altering how they live.
Burns: A severe burn may result from a fire after a crash due to electrocution from defective wiring, toxic exposure to a dangerous chemical, and other situations. Burns often require extensive medical care, including skin grafts, and can leave a victim hospitalized for months.

Fatal Accidents and Wrongful Death

Unfortunately, many accidents cause injuries that result in someone’s death. If you lost a loved one in a fatal accident that resulted from someone else’s negligence, you might be able to seek compensation and hold them responsible. We understand that nothing can bring your loved one back. But by obtaining compensation, our firm hopes to lighten the financial burden you may be carrying after the loss.
