A More Comprehensive Approach

Our approach is different. At Thomas E. Scifres, P.C., we don’t believe in offering cookie-cutter solutions to real legal issues that can have life-altering and long-lasting effects on our clients and their families. Whether you have been injured by the negligence of another, need experienced guidance through the mediation process, or face the loss of a loved one, we seek a deeper understanding of your underlying goals and what you hope to achieve through our representation. This allows us to conduct a more comprehensive, personalized assessment of options for you, our client, as well as help you determine the best course of action to proceed.

From our longer initial consultation, to our flexible fees options, and through all facets of our representation, we seek to partner with our clients and educate them on the finer legal points of their situation in order to empower them to make informed decisions on the dilemmas they face.

Personal Injury

Accidents can happen when we least expect them and leave physical and mental scars that require more than a simple bandage to heal. Injury litigation lawyer Thomas E. Scifres helps victims of automobile crashes, cycling collisions, pedestrian accidents, trucking crashes, serious injuries, landowner liability, slip-and-falls, and more recover the compensation they deserve.

Tom as a personal injury attorney has helped countless victims secure the damages they need to move forward with their life after suffering an accident caused by someone else’s negligence. If you’re facing a permanent disability, scarring, or disfiguration because of your accident, it’s critical to have a serious injury lawyer on your side to guide you through the personal injury claims process, aggressively pursue your claim, and deal with the insurance company on your behalf.

For those who had an accident befall them while in a place of business, Tom as slip-and-fall lawyer can help pursue damages from the wrongful party.

And for those family members who’ve suffered the unthinkable, the unexpected loss of their loved one due to a preventable death, Tom as a wrongful death attorney will work to secure just compensation. While no amount of money can bring a lost loved one back, families should at least not have to worry about making ends meet in their absence.

Probate and Guardianship

When it comes to matters such as probate and guardianship, a purely legal approach is simply not enough. As part of our comprehensive approach at Thomas E. Scifres, we develop creative solutions to ease transitions for our clients and their families. Whether clients are entering into probate litigation after the death of a loved one, seeking to establish a guardianship, building their estate plan, or pursuing other matters, we strive to provide experienced and knowledgeable counsel.

Tom Scifres is an experienced probate lawyer who regularly guides families through the entire probate process and shields personal representatives of estates from disputes and litigation. Tom has assisted numerous families in transferring assets following the death of a loved one. He also has experience litigating will contests in disputed cases.

If you’re assuming care of a minor, Tom’s experience as a guardianship lawyer offers you decades of experience in navigating complicated and sensitive legal situations. At Thomas E. Scifres, we don’t treat guardianship as a single transaction; we believe in building long-term relationships to better serve the parties involved, especially the vulnerable child.

Tom can also help you discuss your individual estate planning needs to prepare for the future. We aim to set your plan up for success in achieving your goals with the least expense possible.
