Auto Accidents

Car Accident Lawyer in Westport, Fairfield and Norwalk, CT

Your first thought following an auto accident should be to get the medical attention that you need. Even if you think you are not seriously injured you should get the proper medical attention to diagnose and treat the injuries you may have sustained. Next, never assume that an insurance company will look out for your best interest. Finally, get legal advice as soon as you can to protect your rights, and in order to obtain full compensation for your injuries.

Why You Need A Car Accident Lawyer

Drivers who try to save money by settling their own cases are making a big mistake. Statistics show that individuals who are represented by an attorney obtain much larger settlements than self-represented individuals.  If who is at fault for the accident  or if the extent of your damages are in dispute you need to be prepared with evidence and medical documentation. In complex cases, you might need the help of an investigator, accident reconstructionist,  and medical expert. Although most motor vehicle accident claims are settled through negotiation, we always assume there will be a trial and plan accordingly. We know from experience that thorough trial preparation and a record of success is a valuable source of leverage. When an insurance company knows that the prospect of a trial is not just an empty threat, it is far more likely to work towards a fair resolution.

Nursing Home/Elder Neglect

Nursing Home Neglect Attorney in Westport, Fairfield and Norwalk, CT

At TDH Law, LLC we believe our elderly should be honored, cherished and protected. However, this is not always the case. According to the American Association for Justice, as many as 90% of U.S. nursing homes have staffing levels too low  to provide adequate care for or loved ones. Too many corporate facilities put profit before people, and decrease their staff  to increase their profits. Nursing homes should be “true homes” for our elderly loved ones. They should not meet untimely deaths. They should not be falling down, or suffering from pain and infection. They should not be victims of medication errors or unexplained injuries. Our elderly should not spend one day in unsafe and unsanitary conditions.

At TDH Law, LLC, we represent victims of nursing home, assisted living facility, or group home neglect and/or abuse. We honor and cherish the elderly, and fight to protect them.

If you suspect that a loved one is being neglected or mistreated in one of these facilities, please call us right now. We believe there should be consequences for disrespect, neglect, and injury to our elderly. If you or a loved one has been injured by somebody else’s negligence please call Todd D. Haase, Esq.  at TDH Law, LLC  (203) 913-5184 or contact us by email.

Slip and Falls

Slip and Fall Attorney Westport, Fairfield and Norwalk, CT

Premises liability is an area of the law that hold a property owner responsible for any injuries sustained by others while on their property. Most often, premises liability cases involve “slip and falls” or “trip and falls.”

When we visit another’s property we assume that they have taken the necessary precautions to ensure that no one will be injured. That is because property owners have a duty to inspect and maintain their property-public or private, and take the necessary steps to remedy any dangerous conditions that may exist.

It is difficult to prove negligence in a premises liability or “slip and fall” case. The test is whether the property is reasonably safe for its intended use. In order to hold the property owner responsible for personal injuries sustained in a “slip and fall”, the injured party must prove the existence of a dangerous condition, and that the owner knew or should have known of its existence; and that the dangerous condition had existed  for such a period of time that the owner should have discovered it in time to remedy it.

If by no fault of your own you were seriously injured on someone else’s property, you need an experienced premises liability or attorney. Please call Todd D. Haase, Esq. at TDH Law, LLC (203) 913-5184 or email the firm.
