Car, motorcycle, and truck

If you have been injured by a driver who was engaged in other activities, or you lost a loved one, it is important to talk with a knowledgeable auto accident attorney as soon as possible. Having more than 10 years’ experience handling car crashes, Mr. Christopher Burk knows what is needed to show the other driver acted in a negligent manner. He is there to address your concerns, help you gather documentation pertaining to the accident and assist you in holding the negligent party accountable.

By law, property owners are required to keep their property in a safe condition, free from hazards that may cause harm to other people. When victims suffer serious injuries due to hazardous conditions on someone else’s property, the responsible property owner, business owner, manager or others may be able to be held liable for the damages that result. Identifying all of the responsible parties and contributing factors, and proving liability, however, can often be challenging. Premises liability attorney, Christopher Burk, can help you determine who and what contributed to your accident to ensure that you receive the financial compensation you are owed.

It happens when you least expect it to. You slip or trip on something and fall, injuring yourself, but you are not alone. The National Floor Safety Institute reports that every year there are over eight million emergency room visits for injuries sustained from a slip and fall. Bone fractures are commonly associated with these kinds of accidents, but injury lawyers also see head injuries, broken bones, shoulder injuries, sprains and back injuries. When an accident occurs on the private or commercial property, the owner may try to attribute your accident to mere clumsiness. However, it is possible that the property manager/owner may have acted negligently, putting you unnecessarily at risk. If you or your loved one suffered injuries due to a slip, trip or fall on someone else’s property, you may be able to recover financial compensation if the property owner or manager is responsible for your accident.

Nursing Home, Assisted Living

Making the decision to put a loved one into a nursing home or an assisted living facility is never easy. You trust that facility to give them the best of care, but sadly, that does not always occur. According to the National Center on Elder Abuse, Ombudsman programs received over 188,000 complaints concerning exploitation, gross neglect or abuse in nursing homes across the country in 2014. If you suspect your loved one is being neglected or abused, it is important to talk with an elder care attorney as soon as possible. Our attorney, Christopher Burk, knows this is a difficult and traumatic time for you and your loved one, and he is passionate about holding nursing homes and care facilities responsible for the damages that come from abuse or neglect.
