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.
