Personal Injury
If you have sustained an injury due to someone else's negligence or carelessness, it is important that you retain the services of a personal injury attorney who is experienced in successfully handling personal injury cases.
At Lebowitz and Mzhen, we have years of experience in personal injury lawsuits, as well as the necessary skills that you will need from a personal injury law firm that can effectively and correctly handle your case.
A person may have just cause to file a personal injury lawsuit or claim if he or she is injured by the intentional or carelessly negligent action of another person. A personal injury can also happen when a person is injured by a defective or dangerous product. In these instances, the manufacturer or distributor of the product may be determined to be legally responsible for causing the personal injury. Filing a personal injury claim may also be warranted if an accident occurs on another's premises due to negligence or carelessness, such as in a slip and fall accident.
Our personal injury attorneys handle a wide range of personal injury claims for clients throughout Maryland and the Washington D.C. area, including injury cases that are a result of the following:
- Car Accidents
- Motorcycle Accidents
- Trucking Accidents
- Use of Defective or Dangerous Products
- Drugstore Negligence
- Pharmacy Misfills
- Claims Arising from Injuries at Work
- Birth Injuries
- Wrongful Death
- Medical Malpractice
- Assisted Living Negligence
- Nursing Home Negligence
- Slip and Fall Accidents
- Dog Bites
Injuries caused by these kinds of accidents can be serious and life changing. At Lebowitz and Mzhen, we consider it our main objective to obtain full compensation for those who have sustained serious and permanently disabling emotional and physical injuries that were caused by others.
Compensatory and Punitive Damages
When a person is determined by the courts to be legally responsible for another person's injury, he or she is therefore liable for causing the injury and may be ordered to pay compensatory damages to the injured person. This kind of damage is intended to help an injured person recover as fully as possible. Punitive damages may also be rewarded in certain personal injury cases where the defendant is being punished by the courts for causing the injury.
At Lebowitz and Mzhen, we know that paying your medical bills will be a top priority after such a traumatic event, and we will do our best to ensure that you do not lose your wages while you recover. We'll also do our best to ensure that the person (or their insurance company) responsible for your injury is made to pay for any future care you will need as a result of your accident.
Our personal injury attorneys will review your options with you, and we will work with the other parties and the insurance companies involved to ensure that your needs are taken care of as appropriately and quickly as possible.
Please contact Jack Lebowitz or Vadim Mzhen if you or a loved one has been injured in Maryland or the Washington D.C. area. You can reach us at Lebowitz and Mzhen via e-mail or call us, toll free, at 1-800-654-1949 to discuss your legal options during your free, no obligation consultation.
