We work exclusively on a contingent basis, meaning we are only paid if we successfully recover for our clients.. Our practice is currently focussed on assisting those suffering injuries caused by defective hernia mesh products; farmers, groundskeepers, landscapers, gardeners, pesticide applicators and others who allege they developed Non-Hodgkin lymphoma after frequent use of the weedkiller Roundup; and victims of sexual abuse. We also represent plaintiffs in matters involving motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, slip-and-fall, aviation and maritime accidents, wrongful death, and other personal injury cases. We operate throughout the country, as we have long-established co-counsel relationships with leading firms located in nearly every state..
