How Can We Help?
OUR PRACTICE AREAS
Personal Injury
Our personal injury attorneys take on cases where a person has suffered serious injuries or was killed because of another person’s reckless, careless, or negligent conduct. The cases we handle include injuries and wrongful death caused by:
- Auto accidents, including accidents involving distracted or intoxicated drivers or vehicle defects
- Truck accidents, including accidents caused by a truck defect or an owner’s lack of maintenance
- Dog bites
- Slips and falls, including those occurring on public and private property
- Nursing home neglect and abuse, including malnutrition, pressure ulcers, bedsores, or other unsanitary conditions
- Construction and worksite accidents
Regardless of the type of accident that caused your injuries, recovery can require more than time. Medical costs, lost earnings, and the complicated legal process can create additional stress for you and your loved ones. Our team of personal injury lawyers of Alvarez Law Office will fight diligently for the compensation you deserve for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages related to the accident.
If you or a loved one were recently injured because of someone else’s actions or inaction, contact us online today or call toll-free at (219) 300-5204 for a free consultation. We accept personal injury cases on a contingency fee arrangement, meaning we don’t get paid unless you get paid.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a doctor, hospital, or other health care professional causes an injury to a patient through misconduct, oversight, or negligence. Our medical malpractice attorneys represent clients who have been injured by the action and inaction of a medical practitioner, including instances involving:
- Misdiagnosis or a failure to diagnose a life-threatening disease
- Misreading or ignoring laboratory results
- Performing unnecessary surgery
- Leaving items inside the body during and after surgery
- Surgical errors, including operating on the wrong side of the body
- Medication errors, including improper medication and incorrect medication dosage
- Disregarding or not taking a patient’s history
- Substandard or unsanitary care
Recovery from these injuries can be devastating for you and your loved ones, resulting in lost wages, additional medical costs, and other damages associated with the provider’s action or inaction. Medical malpractice lawsuits are complicated, tedious, and expensive to pursue. Alvarez’s medical malpractice attorneys have successfully handled a wide range of medical malpractice litigation, including the Goshen Hospital sterilization oversight case.
If you believe you or someone you love has a medical malpractice claim against a medical practitioner, please contact us online or call toll-free at (219) 300-5204 for a free consultation. We accept medical malpractice cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning we don’t get paid unless you win your case.
