SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER AFTER A PERSONAL INJURY, WORK SITE ACCIDENT OR BEEN INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT:

  1. Get needed medical attention immediately after you have been injured.

If you are injured at a work make sure you get an incident report and document who is your employer or the general/sub-contractor.

If need be, we will hire engineers, doctors nurses or any of the related experts to fully explore the viability of your claim. We will present you with a complete analysis as to our opinion as to the likelihood of success and answer all your questions.

As first time home buyers, my husband and I were very stressed out, especially running into bumps in the road trying to obtain a mortgage within the contract time. Andy put our minds at ease throughout the whole process and was extremely knowledgeable. I have since referred a number of friends and family to Andy for all kinds of matters including residential Home Sales, Divorces and Family Court Matters. They, as us, have all been very pleased with his services. We highly recommend. Melissa and Thomas Q.
