Accidents happen every day, sometimes involving serious injuries. If you have been injured because another party engaged in negligent behavior, you have the right to pursue full compensation for current and future expenses incurred as a result of the accident. That includes pain and suffering.

A message from Benjamin R. Lawson: “It’s difficult and often prohibitively costly to fight insurance companies on your own. We want to be your voice, and we want your voice to be heard. I’ve seen clients who have been offered a tenth or even a hundredth of what a case is worth. We’ve been able to secure settlements for our clients that compensate them fully for their injuries. And when the insurance companies won’t settle, we have the litigation experience to force them to go to trial.”
Each personal injury attorney at Lawson & O’Brien, P.C. has extensive experience helping individuals suffering moderate to severe injuries in situations such as:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
“The other driver’s insurance is giving me the run-around. They told me they’ll only cover my deductible.”
Motor vehicle accidents are very common. When a motor vehicle accident results in an injury, it is reasonable to expect the at-fault driver’s insurance to cover the costs of those injuries. However, insurance companies do not always agree to cover the full amount to which injured parties are entitled. At Lawson & O’Brien, P.C. we have negotiated settlements upwards of ten times greater than an insurance company’s original offer. If you’ve been injured in a motor vehicle accident, whether it involves a drunk driver, a negligent driver, a hit and run, or a distracted driver, you should contact our office as soon as possible. There is a statutory time limit during which you must file a lawsuit in a motor vehicle accident case, so if you’ve been injured call our office for a free case evaluation and consultation.

Slip and Fall Accidents
“The floor was waxed to the point that it felt like an ice rink.”
A slip and fall case arises when someone is injured on another person’s property because of a hazard that the property owner knew about or should have known about. Slip and fall cases are one of the more common types of premises liability cases, and they can happen in private stores or on public sidewalks. If you’ve been seriously injured in a slip and fall case and you believe the cause of your injury is something the property owner should have known about, you should contact Lawson & O’Brien, P.C. today. Our experienced attorneys will discuss your case with you in depth and provide a completely free and confidential case evaluation and consultation.

Bicycles and motorcycles can leave operators uniquely exposed to injuries in the event of an accident or a crash. Serious injuries often result including serious spinal or nerve damage, broken limbs, road rash, burns or paralysis. If another driver’s negligence has caused you to suffer traumatic injuries, you need to contact Lawson & O’Brien, P.C. Our experienced attorneys will discuss your options with you during a free case evaluation and consultation.

Premises Liability Lawsuits
“My son’s arm was broken because an employee at the library carelessly arranged a display.”
If a property owner fails to maintain their property safely and someone is injured, a premises liability lawsuit may be the appropriate remedy. Workplace injuries, injuries that occur in public spaces like pools, libraries, festivals, sidewalks, and parks, and injuries that occur at private establishments like restaurants, bars, hotels, churches or schools are all examples of possible premises liability situations. If you’ve been injured on someone else’s property, you should contact Lawson & O’Brien, P.C. We’re happy to offer a free and confidential case evaluation and consultation.
