Why Clients Choose Abramson Smith Waldsmith, LLP

Serious injuries often result in complex cases. When you are considering an attorney, review the types of cases he or she has handled in the past to determine if the firm has the medical and investigative resources to win your case.

Financial Resources: At Abramson Smith Waldsmith, LLP, we have secured many verdicts and settlements for compensation in excess of $1 million or more for people who suffered spinal cord injuries or traumatic brain injuries. We carry the cost of bringing a case to trial. In a recent serious injury case, which settled for $17 million, we used the services of a dozen experts in various fields in order to prove fault. We have the knowledge and the network of resources needed to achieve results in complex cases.

Medical Experts: In order to properly value a case, it's important to truly understand the injuries, the medical and rehabilitative care that will be needed, and the effect those injuries will have on a person's life. We have a network of medical and rehabilitative experts we can call upon to ensure our clients get an accurate medical diagnosis and proper medical treatment.

• We work with physical medicine specialists who have years of experience with head injuries and spinal cord injuries.
• We work with rehabilitation specialists — physical and occupational therapists — to ensure our clients achieve maximum recovery.
• If the injury is such that the person will no longer be able to live independently, we work with life care planners to understand the scope of medical and nursing services that will be needed throughout his or her lifetime.

Cutting Edge Technology: A critical component of any personal injury case is communicating complex medical information to a jury. Our firm has won awards for our innovative use of technology at trial to bring critical evidence to life. For example, in some cases we have created documentaries to help the jury understand how our clients have been affected by continuing disability or by pain and suffering.

Trial Experience: The true test of a personal injury lawyer is whether he brings cases to trial. Fewer cases are being tried in the courts today, but a lawyer should be taking cases to trial periodically. Without a track record of jury verdicts, the law firm will not be seen as a credible threat to the insurance industry and will rarely get the best settlement offers. We are trial lawyers.
