Virginia, D.C., and Maryland Attorneys

Personal Injury and Tort Law

Injury – physical, financial, or legal – demands compensation. Tort Laws provide a path to monetary damages for individuals harmed by businesses or other individuals. The experienced team at Cook Craig & Francuzenko is passionate about holding those who do harm accountable and fighting for the just compensation our clients deserve.  

Areas of Concentration

Personal injury cases cover a wide range of issues, from vehicle accidents to workplace injuries to product liability. If you’ve been harmed, physically, materially, or otherwise, by another party’s negligence, you have the right to seek compensation from them. Although it sounds simple, personal injury cases can sometimes seem complex and overwhelming. In some cases, the company or person who caused you harm (especially insurance companies and other large organizations) can use intimidation to make it seem like you just can’t win. Thankfully, that’s not actually the case.

 

When reviewing your personal injury case, we will use our vast experience in these types of cases to give you our candid opinion about your case. If you decide to move forward, we’ll give you guidance as to the best course of action, always seeking to settle the case in a way that’s most cost-effective and efficient for you. However, even as we seek to settle issues without litigation, we’ll continue to build a case for you and prepare to fight for you in court. You deserve to be compensated for your injury. You deserve justice. We’ll help you get it.

 

If you’ve been hurt, you CAN get justice. We can help.

If you have been injured in an automobile accident, you are entitled to seek damages from the responsible party for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Insurance companies are well trained to try to minimize your recovery. You need experienced counsel to negotiate with the insurance adjusters and, if necessary, bring your case in court to get you fair compensation. We have decades of experience representing injured parties.

 

LET US PUT OUR EXPERIENCE TO WORK FOR YOU.

When we’re sick or hurt, we place a lot of trust in medical professionals. We trust that they’ll do their best to care for us. Unfortunately, there are some instances where this is not the case. Medical malpractice is when a medical professional causes injury to a patient, either through negligence or by not practicing an acceptable standard of care. Malpractice can occur during diagnosis, treatment, aftercare, or health management.

 

For an injury to be considered a case of medical malpractice, it also has to result in significant damages. So in addition to proving that a medical professional was negligent or violated a standard of care, an individual also has to prove that their negligence caused them harm, and that that harm has significantly affected their lives.  For this reason, it’s imperative that if you’ve been injured by medical neglect, you find a skilled attorney to make sure you get the justice you deserve.

 

We understand that being the victim of medical malpractice can be overwhelming and emotional. We’re here to listen, explain your options, and assist you in determining the next steps. 

 

Your health is priceless. Justice is your right.

Any unwelcomed sexual touching is a sexual battery. All are actionable under various state and, sometimes, federal laws. Some assaults happen in the workplace. Others occur at school, in public organizations, or privately. Sometimes those entities can be held legally liable. We can recover for you money to pay for medical bills, counseling sessions, lost wages, and sometimes your attorneys’ fees. 

 

MOST IMPORTANTLY – A SEXUAL ASSAULT IS NOT YOUR FAULT. We will hold the responsible parties accountable.
