Personal Injury Attorney
Assault & battery injury litigation
Jail sexual assault is traumatizing for those victims involved and is a crime that violates their constitutional right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment. When a person is in custody, they retain the right to be free from excessive force and sexual assault, and to receive treatment for their serious medical needs. In the event that these rights are violated, many individuals may believe that there can be no justice to be found for themselves or a loved one. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are prepared to help you get the full justice you deserve for your unconstitutional treatment.
Auto accident litigation
Bicycle accident litigation
Cell tower repairmen have a very dangerous occupation, as one wrong step at such a great height can send you to the hospital in an instant. These workers also utilize electrical equipment to perform their occupational tasks, which can also be very dangerous if a mistake is made. If you work on this type of equipment and have sustained an injury, you should seek medical attention to determine the extent of the damage, but you’ll quickly realize that this treatment is very expensive. You’ll want to notify your supervisor of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process, but some employers act negligently to avoid paying their injured workers what they deserve. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around an unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Catastrophic injury litigation
Dental malpractice litigation
Many people have negative associations with the dentist due to prior traumatic experiences at a dental office. The invasiveness of a routine root canal or a cavity filling is one thing. Substandard dental treatment is something else entirely. If the dentist did not follow established medical procedures, and you were injured, dental malpractice could have occurred. Don’t expect the dentist to admit their mistake. You may need help from an attorney to correct the situation. During a free consultation, Morgan & Morgan’s dental malpractice attorneys will listen to your concerns and advise you of the next steps to take. If warranted, we’ll begin the process of investigating your claim, gathering evidence, and seeking compensation on your behalf. We are America’s largest injury law firm, trusted by millions of satisfied clients.
Dog bite injury litigation
Dog bite injuries are some of the most traumatic that a person can sustain. Not only is there physical damage from the bite, but it can also result in significant mental anguish that makes it difficult for the victim to be around dogs in the future. You’ll want to seek medical attention to determine the extent of the damage, but this is often expensive, and the combination of all your expenses can quickly become more painful than the injury itself. No one should have to live in fear, especially after a situation that could have been avoided if the dog owner acted responsibly. By teaming up with one of our experienced dog bite attorneys, you can advocate for the severity of your situation and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet. Contact us today!
Medical malpractice litigation
If you or a loved one were injured because of medical malpractice, contact our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan today for a free, no-risk case evaluation. These type of cases have tight deadlines, so you should consider calling as soon as possible if you think you have a case. We have decades of experience winning large jury verdicts for our clients, including $38 million for a woman whose infant suffered serious birth defects because of an ill-timed C-section (although past results don’t necessarily guarantee future outcomes). We don’t charge any medical malpractice attorneys’ fees unless we win your case.
Motorcycle accident litigation
Motorcycle’s offer little to no protections to the rider, which is why most accidents often result in painful injuries. Whether the rider impacts with another vehicle or slides down the road after a fall, the bodily injury will likely require medical attention. Unfortunately, that treatment is expensive, and the combination of all your expenses can become more stressful than the injury itself. On top of it all, you’ll have to handle filing your insurance claim, and that can prove to be difficult if you have no prior experience. You want to recover from your wreck as quickly as possible, and by teaming up with one of our experienced motorcycle accident attorneys, they can help you navigate the legal aspect of your crash so you can return to your normal life.
Motorist insurance claims litigation
You can’t put a price on the life of a loved one. But thanks to life insurance, if a loved one dies, the surviving family members can at least have a measure of financial security. That’s how life insurance is supposed to work, anyway. Insurance companies may try to avoid paying a death benefit if they think they can get away with it. And they might get away with it if you do not challenge a denied claim. Whether you purchased life insurance to protect yourself financially in the event of the death of a family member, business partner, executive, or employee, you have rights as the beneficiary. Morgan & Morgan is here to make sure your insurance rights are upheld. Our life insurance claim attorneys can review your case free of charge. We also work on a contingency fee basis, so you pay no upfront fees. Let us take a second look at your policy: schedule a free case review.
Pedestrian accident litigation
Every year, 335 million people visit amusement parks in the U.S. Given this heavy traffic, you would think that the strictest of safety standards would be in place to keep ride goers safe. However, some states don’t even have safety regulations for amusement park rides. Regulations or not, amusement park attraction owners, manufacturers, and operators have a responsibility to ensure their rides are reasonably safe and don’t harm patrons. If you or a loved one were injured in an amusement park accident, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit against the attraction’s owners, operators, or manufacturers.
Product liability litigation
Property damage litigation
Professional malpractice can have far-reaching consequences. These professionals are bound by the standards of conduct and are required to perform according to those standards. However, in some cases, when professionals step outside those boundaries, damages can occur, and victims will find themselves headed on an uphill battle after filing a lawsuit. In many cases, it is imperative to have an attorney on your side with the expertise and experience to help you prosecute those who have harmed you. That’s where we can help.
Slip & fall injury litigation
Whether the fall occurred at work or in your backyard, slipping from a ladder can result in a very painful injury. If you’re lucky enough to be able to walk away from the fall under your own power, you should still seek medical attention to determine if there’s any underlying damage. More serious injuries almost always require medical treatment, and as we all know, that treatment is very expensive. Your insurance claim will help mitigate some of that financial damage, but the process of filing your claim is often difficult if you don’t have a legal background. By teaming up with one of our experienced ladder fall attorneys, you can navigate through the process with ease and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Truck accident litigation
The Polaris RZR is a sport side-by-side recreational off-road vehicle. First introduced in 2013, the Polaris RZR paved the way for the sport UTV market, offering a fun, fast, and sporty package. But since its introduction, the RZR has been plagued by defects, including fires. The CPSC fined Polaris nearly $30 million for late-reporting claims related to fire hazards. Anyone with an affected vehicle should immediately stop driving it and schedule a free inspection and repair with a Polaris dealer. There have been hundreds of RZR fires that have killed several people and seriously burned others. Many of the victims have been young. In addition to fires, RZRs may be prone to rollover accidents and could have other defects that make them more likely to crash. The defective product lawyer at Morgan & Morgan are here to review your Polaris RZR Off-Road Vehicle claims 24/7 and free of charge.
Workers’ compensation litigation
Our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan help workers who were injured on the job and were denied their workers comp claims. Using our experience advocating for workers, we help them navigate the process of trying to recover the money they might rightfully be owed.
Wrongful death litigation
Police brutality is a crime and a violation of your civil rights. A few examples of police brutality include racial profiling, assault, intimidation, threats of violence, verbal abuse, excessive or unnecessary force, and forced or coerced confessions. Many victims of police brutality can suffer serious injuries, like bruised body parts, psychological injuries, or in some cases, death. Seeking justice from the justice system can often be a difficult and uphill battle, leaving many feeling defeated before they’ve even begun the fight. With Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are ready to help you get the full justice you deserve for your unfair treatment.
ATV Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
An ATV accident can quickly end your day of outdoor recreation, and in some cases, leave you with a painful injury. Even minor injuries should be treated by a medical professional, but that treatment is often expensive. Between repair costs and medical bills, the financial strain of your accident can complicate your recovery, but your insurance claim will help mitigate some of that damage. However, this can be difficult to file on your own if you have no prior experience, and a mistake in your claim can result in you paying for the accident out-of-pocket. By teaming up with one of our experienced ATV accident attorneys, you can navigate through the legal process of filing your claim and pursue compensation that accurately reflects the severity of your situation. Contact us today!
Accounting Malpractice
Accounting Malpractice can occur to any business at any time. It can happen in cases where an accountant fails to abide by the profession’s rules, leaving you, their client, to consequently suffer a financial loss or even run into issues with the IRS. In many cases, discovering malpractice is only the beginning. To prove accounting malpractice, it can be a long and challenging process of gathering financial information, building a case against those who have caused your business harm, and ensuring your claims are made within the specific timeline of your state’s laws. With a complicated case, you need to ensure your legal team is up for the task. See why there is only one Morgan & Morgan.
Amusement Park Accidents
Every year, 335 million people visit amusement parks in the U.S. Given this heavy traffic, you would think that the strictest of safety standards would be in place to keep ride goers safe. However, some states don’t even have safety regulations for amusement park rides. Regulations or not, amusement park attraction owners, manufacturers, and operators have a responsibility to ensure their rides are reasonably safe and don’t harm patrons. If you or a loved one were injured in an amusement park accident, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit against the attraction’s owners, operators, or manufacturers.
Amusement Park Accidents & Injuries
The owners of amusement parks have a responsibility to protect all visitors within their facility. Scheduled maintenance, security, and all other preventative measures must be taken to prevent injury to visitors, but in some cases, they can act negligently and expose innocent families to a risk of injury. Whether you were injured on a ride or while traversing the grounds, you should seek medical attention promptly, but this is often an expensive task that can potentially damage your financial security. You didn’t cause your injury on purpose, so why should you have to endure the expense? By teaming up with one of our amusement park accident attorneys, you can hold the negligent party accountable and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet. Contact us today!
Antitrust Litigation
Antitrust Litigation can make a world of difference for those individuals and businesses who have been harmed by companies who engage in anticompetitive and illegal conduct. Many companies and individuals often find themselves struggling with economic injuries from the harm of price-fixing, bid-rigging, group boycotts, tying arrangements, and market allocation between competitors. Oftentimes, these entities may not be able to take on these larger corporations on their own, which is why having the right attorneys on your case to help you can be vital.
Back Car Accidents
Benzene
Benzene exposure can cause severe and even life-altering illnesses. Side effects from exposure include tremors, vomiting, dizziness, confusion, headaches, drowsiness, convulsions, and cancer. In many cases, healing from the dangerous side effects is just the tip of the iceberg. Going against those negligent companies alone to hold them responsible for your damages can often lead to exhaustion and in some cases failure to seek proper compensation for your damages. With Morgan & Morgan, our environmental attorneys can help you hold those accountable for causing the exposure to the dangerous chemical.
Bike Accidents
Bikes are an environmentally conscious way to get around, but they can also be very dangerous if you’re riding in a crowded area. Even if you’re riding safely in the bike lane, a negligent driver can make a mistake and cause an accident and cause you to sustain a painful injury. These accidents can be life-changing, and you’ll want to seek medical treatment to determine the extent of your injuries. However, the expenses of your accident can quickly add up and leave you with a mountain of debt to handle while you’re trying to recover physically. This may feel disheartening, but our bike accident attorneys are here to make sure that you’re fairly compensated for your hardship. When you need a law firm to never settle for less than you deserve, look no further than Morgan & Morgan. Contact us today!
Birth Injuries
At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys realize that birth injuries not only have physical and emotional consequences, but also place a financial strain on the child’s family. When a birth injury is caused by the negligence of a doctor or another healthcare provider, the family may be able to recover compensation for these costs through a birth injury lawsuit.
Birth Injuries – Birth Defects
Birth defects are not always natural or unavoidable. In some cases, they result from birth injuries caused by the negligence of a doctor or another healthcare provider. Birth defects are associated with lifelong medical expenses such as physical therapy and special school. A birth injury lawsuit against a healthcare provider can help to cover these costs. Improper forceps or vacuum use, delay in ordering a C-section, lack of oxygen at birth, and failure to perform proper prenatal testing are some of the leading causes of birth injuries. These cases can be difficult to prove and should be handled by an attorney with experience handling birth defect lawsuits. Morgan & Morgan’s attorneys have a history of success representing the parents of children who suffered birth injuries.
Birth Injuries – Brachial Plexus Palsy
The brachial plexus is a set of nerves that extend from the spinal cord to the armpit and control the muscles of the arm. When these nerves are damaged, as can happen when a child’s head, neck, or shoulder is stretched during birth, the child may suffer a birth injury known as brachial plexus palsy. A brachial plexus injury at birth can cause permanent loss of movement and sensation in the shoulder, arm, wrist, and hand. Medical interventions sometimes, but not always, improve the condition. If you suspect that medical negligence caused your child’s brachial plexus palsy, you may be eligible for a medical malpractice lawsuit. Morgan & Morgan has decades of experience handling birth injury cases, including those involving brachial plexus palsy, Erb’s palsy, and Klumpke’s palsy.
Birth Injuries – Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy is a condition that affects body movement and muscle coordination. Although often caused by abnormal brain development prior to birth, cerebral palsy can also be caused by medical negligence, such as failure to monitor the child’s vital signs during delivery, failure to perform a timely Caesarian section, and an inadequate response to signs of fetal distress. When cerebral palsy results from medical malpractice, families may be able to seek compensation for the child’s treatment and care, future living expenses, projected lost wages, and other medical bills and losses. If your child was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, Morgan & Morgan’s birth injury lawyers may be able to help. We are America’s largest injury law firm and have decades of experience proving causation in cerebral palsy malpractice cases.
Birth Injuries – Erb’s Palsy
Erb’s palsy is a type of brachial plexus palsy characterized by arm weakness and loss of motion. Although it can occur due to the natural forces of the birthing process, Erb’s palsy is frequently the result of physical injury sustained during birth—possibly from medical negligence. If a medical professional used excessive force on your child—or failed to take appropriate action to mitigate harm to them—a medical malpractice lawsuit may be warranted. These are sensitive and potentially high value cases that demand legal precision. Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest personal injury law firm, has decades of experience handling medical malpractice claims. We can help you file an Erb’s palsy lawsuit that recovers compensation for physical therapy, medical equipment, corrective surgeries, future lost earnings, and more.
Birth Injuries – Oxygen Deprivation
A child’s first breath signals their entrance into this world. That entrance can be marred by trauma if the child is deprived of oxygen. Birth hypoxia occurs when the infant experiences an oxygen deficiency. If hypoxia is prolonged, it can lead to birth asphyxia, or a lack of oxygen to the brain and other organs. Doctors should be vigilant about detecting the signs of oxygen deficiency at birth and taking prompt measures to mitigate newborn harm, which can occur quickly when a newborn is not getting enough oxygen. Failure to notice a hypoxic event and take quick, necessary action to avoid injury could be an instance of medical malpractice. Morgan & Morgan’s birth injury lawyers can examine your medical records, review diagnostic tests, and work alongside medical experts to determine whether the appropriate standard or care was met. We are America’s largest injury law firm, trusted by millions.
Birth Injury
Boating Accidents
Every year, 335 million people visit amusement parks in the U.S. Given this heavy traffic, you would think that the strictest of safety standards would be in place to keep ride goers safe. However, some states don’t even have safety regulations for amusement park rides. Regulations or not, amusement park attraction owners, manufacturers, and operators have a responsibility to ensure their rides are reasonably safe and don’t harm patrons. If you or a loved one were injured in an amusement park accident, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit against the attraction’s owners, operators, or manufacturers.
Boating Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
Whether your boat collided with another vessel or ran ashore, an unexpected boat accident has the potential to cause significant bodily damage. Much like a traditional car accident, a boat wreck can cause bruises, lacerations, and broken bones in more serious cases, or even result in a wrongful death if a drowning occurs. Even if you walked away with minor scrapes and bruises, you should still seek medical treatment to determine if there’s any underlying damage. Unfortunately, that treatment is often expensive, and you’ll have to handle the financial strain of your situation alongside the physical pain of your injury. This makes it difficult to know the best next step, but by teaming up with an attorney, you can use their legal expertise to navigate through the process. Our boating accident attorneys have a proven track record of recovering full compensation in cases just like yours, and we’re eager to help you overcome one of the most traumatic moments of your life.
Brain And Spinal Cord Injuries
Brain Damage
Brain Injuries
Suffering brain injuries, especially at the hands of another person, can be extremely traumatizing, and the road to recovery may be long and expensive. Our personal injury attorneys at Morgan & Morgan have achieved an enviable track record of results in helping brain injury victims file claims against negligent motorists, doctors, and trucking companies for the compensation they needed to cover medical expenses and lost wages.
Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury can be life-changing. Whether the injury was the result of a slip and fall accident or medical malpractice, you’ll have a long road to recovery ahead of you if the condition isn’t terminal. In some cases, your accident could have been caused by the negligence of a third-party, such as a liquid spill in a grocery store causing you to slip and fall. You shouldn’t have to endure a life-threatening injury at their expense, so why should you have to pay for the damage? Although compensation can’t reverse your injury, it can help you treat your condition in the future without falling into financial debt. Our brain injury attorneys understand this very well, and if you’ve sustained a brain injury, they’re prepared to fight tirelessly on your behalf and help you overcome one of the most traumatic moments of your life.
Breach of Contract
Breach of contract can occur in the context of almost any agreement or transaction, with or even without a contract. No matter how large or small the breach may have been, those affected can be left to handle the severe back lash on top of taking those responsible parties to court. The steps for justice can be long and begrudging for those involved. With a complicated case, you need to ensure your legal team is up for the task. See why there is only one Morgan & Morgan.
Breach of Warranty
There is nothing more frustrating for consumers than to waste valuable time and money having to bring in products and vehicles for repeated repairs. Our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan understand that when you buy a consumer product, you expect it to meet a certain standard of quality and performance. Federal law protects consumer rights against defective products, and if you have repeatedly brought in your new appliance or vehicle for repairs and have not received a refund or replacement, you may be able to take legal action.
Building Collapse
In most cases, a building collapse is caused by the negligence of a property owner who failed to properly maintain the integrity of their structure. Building collapses almost always result in widespread injuries to everyone involved, but even if you walked away with minor damage, you should still seek medical attention to determine if there are any underlying injuries. However, all injuries are expensive to some degree, and you want to avoid having to pay out-of-pocket for an accident you didn’t cause. That’s why you need an experienced attorney by your side. Our building collapse attorneys understand how important your rightful compensation is to your situation, which is why they’ll fight tirelessly for what you deserve, regardless of the size or severity of your case.
Burn Injuries
Our burn injury attorneys at Morgan & Morgan advocate for victims of negligent landlords, sometimes getting tenants millions of dollars in compensation and holding the landlords accountable for their actions. They have the experience and deep knowledge to help you navigate this complicated process. You can contact us free of charge to learn if you can recover compensation for physical pain, medical bills, lost wages, and other damages.
Burn Injuries – Apartment Fire
Apartment fires can start quickly and spread even faster. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), about 6 percent of blazes that local fire departments respond to occur in apartments, but apartment fires account for about 10% of civilian fire deaths and 19% of fire injuries. Cooking, heating, smoking, burning candles, electrical wiring, and lighting equipment are among the leading causes of home fires. Landlords have a duty to follow laws designed to ensure that tenants are safe from fire injury and wrongful death. When landlords disregard fire safety rules, and people get hurt or even die, fire injury lawyers help tenants hold them accountable. The apartment fire injury lawyers at Morgan & Morgan are here for you and your family. Please schedule a free case review to learn how we can help.
Burn Injuries – Gas Explosion
The ignition of natural gas can set off a powerful explosion that damages property, causes injuries, and claims lives. More than 100,000 home property gas leaks are reported each year, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Cooking equipment is the leading cause of natural gas explosions and fires, followed by heating equipment such as water heaters, space heaters, and central heat. You might blame yourself for a gas explosion, but a landlord, contractor, utility provider, or other party could be responsible. For example, NFPA reports that problems with gas pipe installation is a common cause of gas explosions. The gas explosion attorneys at Morgan & Morgan should be retained as soon as possible so that a prompt and full investigation can be performed, and the responsible parties held accountable. Find out how America’s largest injury law firm can help you and your family during a free case review.
Burn Injuries – Home Explosion
Gas is the most common reason why homes explode. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), more than 4,000 home structure fires are caused by the ignition of natural gas every year, resulting in an average of 40 annual deaths. More than 100,000 home property gas leaks are reported each year. Common causes of gas explosions in the home include leaking pipes or valves, poor ventilation, improper installation of gas furnaces and other appliances, and the failure of landlords to properly inspect or maintain gas appliances. The fire department will likely determine the cause of a home gas explosion. If a landlord, contractor, utility provider, or another party’s negligence contributed to a home explosion, they may be held legally liable. The gas explosion attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are here for you and your family. Schedule a free case review to find out how we can help.
Burn Injuries – Pipeline Explosion
Millions of miles of pipeline crisscross the United States, delivering gas, biofuel, carbon dioxide, crude oil, and other gases and liquids. According to the National Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a pipeline catches fire every 4 days on average, resulting in an explosion every 11 days, an injury every 5 days, and a death about once a month. Many pipelines lack adequate regulation, inspection, and enforcement. Most pipeline explosions are preventable. If you were injured in a pipeline explosion or lost a loved one to such an incident, a prompt and full investigation should be performed to determine what happened. Having legal representation helps to ensure that the responsible party is held accountable. Trust Morgan & Morgan, America’s largest injury law firm, to assist you during this difficult time. Schedule a free pipeline explosion case review to get help now.
Burn Injuries – Plant Explosion
Some of the deadliest fires and explosions on record have occurred at industrial facilities such as chemical plants, power plants, refineries, food plants, and factories. Plants contain a number of reactive substances that, if not property handled, inspected, and cared for, can cause explosions. Plant safety starts at the top. When workers are injured or die in plant explosions, it’s often because the factory did not provide adequate protection, including skimping on safety measures and using outdated equipment. And the company might try to protect itself by not revealing the true source of a plant explosion. Blast injuries, property damage, and deaths demand a prompt and full investigation to determine what happened and who is liable. Morgan & Morgan’s plant explosion attorneys offer free case reviews and charge no upfront legal fees.
Bus Accidents, Crashes, and Wrecks
Buses are large and bulky, making them difficult to operate on a road filled with other cars. These vehicles can cause extensive damage if they’re involved in an accident, and if the bus is full of passengers, many of them can walk away with serious injuries. Even minor bus accidents can result in major damage, and the victims should seek medical attention to determine if there are any underlying injuries that will cause problems in the future. Unfortunately, that treatment isn’t free, and the expenses resulting from your bus crash can damage you financially. You’ll want to file an insurance claim, but this can prove to be difficult if you’re not familiar with the process. By teaming up with our experienced bus accident attorneys, you can protect yourself from financial harm and return to your normal life in a timely manner.
Business Litigation
CRPS
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a condition characterized by chronic pain that manifests mainly in the arms or legs of individuals who have sustained nerve damage in traumatic injuries. A traditional injury is already something to be concerned about, but nerve damage is much more severe, as it doesn’t heal like most other injuries. Those who have this condition are forced to endure consistent, lingering pain for the rest of their lives, which is especially unacceptable if the accident wasn’t their fault. If you developed CRPS as a result of an accidental injury, it’s best to team up with an attorney to secure your rightful compensation and prevent a third party from devaluing your case. Our CPRS attorneys have a proven track record of recovering the full extent of damages in cases just like yours, and we’re prepared to fight tirelessly to help you overcome this hardship.
Car Accidents
Car accidents are life-changing experiences. Whether it’s a major accident with property and vehicle damage and serious personal injury, or a no-fault incident with nary a scrape or bruise, rarely does one leave an accident without experiencing some form of lasting effects. In many cases, the accident itself is only the beginning of what can be an extremely long process of filing an insurance claim, determining fault, and most importantly, getting the closure one needs to move on with their life.
Car Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
You can be the safest driver on the road and still find yourself in an unexpected car wreck. Every accident is expensive, but more severe crashes can not only cause you physical harm but can also damage you financially. Medical bills, repair costs, and other expenses can quickly become more painful than the injury itself, not to mention the stress of filing your insurance claim, which is often a lengthy process that’s difficult for those without a legal background. By teaming up with one of our talented car accident attorneys, you can mitigate the stress of your car crash and pursue fair compensation that will help you move on from your unfortunate accident.
Car Crash
Ceiling Collapse
A sudden ceiling collapse can quickly cause painful injuries that can prevent you from working, performing basic tasks, and living your everyday life. In most cases, a ceiling collapse is the result of extended property manager negligence, as they should have noticed and fixed the problem once evidence of the risk of collapse is apparent. Once you’re treated for your injuries, you’ll have a sizeable medical bill on your plate, and that can be difficult to pay when you’re unable to earn a paycheck. Their negligence isn’t your fault, so why should you have to endure painful injuries and financial strain on their behalf? Our ceiling collapse attorneys understand how frustrating your situation can be and want to help you reach the best possible solution for your case. We’ll never settle for less than you deserve, and you can count on that.
Cell Tower Accident
Cell tower repairmen have a very dangerous occupation, as one wrong step at such a great height can send you to the hospital in an instant. These workers also utilize electrical equipment to perform their occupational tasks, which can also be very dangerous if a mistake is made. If you work on this type of equipment and have sustained an injury, you should seek medical attention to determine the extent of the damage, but you’ll quickly realize that this treatment is very expensive. You’ll want to notify your supervisor of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process, but some employers act negligently to avoid paying their injured workers what they deserve. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around an unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Cell Tower Accidents
If you or someone you love has been injured or killed as a result of a cell tower accident, we may be able to help. Our attorneys are experienced in a variety of practice areas. Fill out our free, no-risk case evaluation form to learn what our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan can do for you.
Chemical Exposure
Whether you work with asbestos at work or come in contact with Legionella bacteria in a grocery store, exposure to toxic chemicals can seriously jeopardize your health and wellbeing. Chemical exposure is different from a traditional injury because its effects are biological, meaning that they’re much more severe and difficult to remedy. If you come in contact with a harmful chemical, you should seek medical attention immediately, as some conditions can worsen if they’re not treated promptly. Unfortunately, this is often expensive, and you might sustain financial damage while trying to pay off your expenses and afford your future treatment. You didn’t expose yourself on purpose, and our chemical exposure attorneys have the necessary experience, knowledge, and resources to help you seek compensation from the at-fault party that helps support you through your recovery. Contact us today to get started.
Child Sexual Abuse
Sexual abuse is unacceptable by any means, especially when it’s committed against a child. If your child becomes a victim of this heinous crime, you’re likely very frustrated with the situation, but you might not know the right steps to hold the abuser accountable. That’s why you need an attorney, one who has the resources, knowledge, and expertise to handle a case as serious as yours. Morgan & Morgan is staffed with those very attorneys, and when you need someone to advocate for the rights of your child, our compassionate child sexual abuse attorneys can guide you towards the best possible outcome for your case and set an example for others to follow. Contact us today to get started.
Citizen Suits
Citizen suits can help you seek justice when the environmental safety of your home has come into question or has been violated in some manner. However, taking on those major corporations on your own can oftentimes seem impossible. Going alone can often leave you feeling frustrated and discouraged when attempting to navigate the complicated process of creating a lawsuit against major companies. Which is why, when it is essential to have a law firm with the best resources to help you fight back against the government body or corporation.
Civil Forfeiture
When someone takes your property, you call the police. But who do you call when the police are the ones taking your property? Believe it or not, this happens every day under a process called “civil forfeiture.” People whose assets were seized by law enforcement often don’t know how to get them back, or they fear that they will be charged with a crime for even trying. If your property or assets were seized by law enforcement, we may be able to help. While few attorneys are experienced at facing off with the government to reclaim property taken under civil forfeiture laws, at Morgan & Morgan we have an attorney who has extensive experience in this field.
Civil Rights
The right to be free from excessive force, the right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures, and the right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment are fundamental rights protected by law. Violations of these rights are litigated by Morgan & Morgan’s civil rights group.
Class Actions
Our attorneys are dedicated to protecting the rights of consumers, patients and investors in the country’s top class action and mass torts cases.
Coffee Workers’ Lung
Coffee workers’ lung, or obliterative bronchiolitis, is a respiratory condition that commonly affects those who work in coffee manufacturing facilities. The condition is developed by inhaling diacetyl, which is a harmful chemical that damages and scars lung tissue and prevents breathing. No one should have to come home with a life-threatening condition for doing their job, but your workers’ compensation claim can help provide the financial relief you need to treat your condition in the future. However, some employers have been known to act negligently with the workers’ compensation claims of their injured employees, forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for an accident they didn’t cause. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to improve your future quality of life.
Construction Accidents
At Morgan & Morgan, we know how to handle cases involving workplace injuries, especially those sustained on construction sites. Our attorneys are familiar with the intricate federal and state regulations specific to these types of claims and can help navigate these laws to help you recover compensation for your losses.
Construction Accidents & Injuries
Construction is one of the most dangerous industries to work in, as the workers are almost always at risk for injury or worse. Whether you’re struck by a falling object or injured by moving equipment, an on-the-job injury can quickly change your life. Medical bills, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs for chronic injuries can add up to create a very financially stressful situation, but your workers’ compensation claim should help offset some of that damage. However, some employers choose to act unethically and attempt to avoid paying you the compensation you’re entitled to. Our construction accident attorneys have years of experience working with cases just like yours, and they can use their expertise to guide you through the legal process of your injury and navigate around your unethical employer to secure your rightful compensation.
Construction Litigation
Construction litigation can span anywhere from claims for breach of contract, breach of express or implied warranties, negligence, negligent misrepresentation, deceptive trade practices, and even fraud. Depending on the form of litigation you are looking to pursue, often it can lead down a long and winding path from filing an insurance claim and determining who is at fault, which can leave you feeling like there is no end in sight. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys can help you investigate your claim and fight for your full and fair compensation.
Construction Site Falls
Many construction workers have to maneuver at high altitudes to perform their occupational tasks, which is especially dangerous even if you’ve done it for years. A fall from such a high altitude will cause extensive bodily harm, and you’ll want to seek medical treatment to help remedy some of your pain. You should also notify your supervisor of the incident so they can begin the process of filing your workers’ compensation claim. However, some employers will act negligently and fail to uphold their end of the bargain, which can force you to pay for your accident out of your own pocket. This is unacceptable, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to. Contact us today to get started!
Construction Site Injuries
Construction is among the most dangerous industries to work within, so it’s not surprising to learn that most workplace fatalities occur on construction sites. Between falling objects and moving equipment, there are a lot of things to watch out for, but you can still sustain a painful injury even if you’re exhibiting caution. If you sustain an injury at a construction site, you’ll want to seek medical treatment and notify your employer of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will act negligently with the claims of their injured employees, forcing them to pay out of pocket for an accident they didn’t cause. By teaming up with an attorney, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Contract Dispute
Contract Disputes can happen at any point in a business. Disputes can range anywhere from refusal to pay for specific work accomplished or as far as misappropriation of trade secrets. In many cases, those involved may find themselves in over their heads dealing with the process of filing a claim and going through the proper avenues to ensure their contract has not been violated in any other manner––all while trying to keep their business afloat. In difficult times like these, having an expert attorney in the legalities of contract disputes can be critical for your business’s future.
Cotton Gin Injuries & Amputations
Those who rely on cotton gin equipment to earn their paychecks have a uniquely dangerous occupation, as one wrong move or equipment failure can tangle their limbs in the machine and cause severe injuries. If you were injured by cotton gin equipment or had to have a limb amputated as the result of a cotton gin accident, you’ll want to seek medical attention and notify your employer of the incident. Once your employer is notified, they’ll begin the worker’s compensation process and file your claim with their insurance provider. In some cases, negligent employers will refuse to file the claims of their injured employees, forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for an accident they didn’t cause. This is unacceptable, but by teaming up with one of our workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation that you’re entitled to.
Crane Accidents
Crane operators are human too, and despite their extensive training, they can make mistakes too. Crane equipment is used to move heavy materials and equipment around construction sites, but if the load isn’t secured properly, it can fall from the crane and harm those who are working underneath. Maneuvering the equipment throughout the site is also difficult, and many individuals have been injured after they were struck by a moving crane. If you become injured, you’ll want to notify your supervisor of the situation immediately so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will act unethically and actively attempt to stop the injured worker from receiving their rightful restitution. This can be difficult to navigate on your own, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can fight back against a negligent employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Cruise Ship Accident
The operators of cruise ships must undergo significant training before they’re allowed to pilot the massive boats, as one mistake can cause irreversible damage to both people and property. In some cases, they’ll make mistakes, and the sudden change in momentum can knock people off balance and cause them to sustain a painful injury. If you were injured in this manner, you potentially have a long road to recovery ahead of you, but why should you have to endure the expense of an accident you didn’t cause? Our cruise ship accident attorneys have the necessary knowledge, resources, and experience to ensure that you’re compensated fairly for your hardship, allowing you to recover properly and get back on your feet. Contact us today!
Cruise Ship Injuries
Cruise ships are a vacation from the stress of normal life. However, if you sustain an injury while onboard, the stress you were trying to escape from can return in a frustrating way. Cruise ships, while fun and exciting, can also cause damage to their occupants, as the constant movement of the ship makes it difficult to traverse the environment. In some cases, it may take some time to find medical attention, and that prolonged period without medical care can potentially make your injuries much worse. Once you’re finally treated by a doctor, you’ll have to find a way to pay for that service, which is often expensive. You just want to recover and return to your everyday life, and the payout from your insurance claim will help you do just that. By teaming up with one of our experienced cruise ship accident attorneys, you can navigate through the process of filing your claim and pursue the compensation you need to offset your financial damage.
Dangerous Drugs – Belviq
Belviq, sold under the generic name lorcaserin, is a prescription weight loss drug manufactured by Eisai Inc. It’s prescribed to help users curb their hunger, but it might also be a risk factor for cancer, the FDA announced in 2020 as part of a full product recall. Belviq has been linked to pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. If you were diagnosed with cancer after taking Belviq, Belviq XR, or another brand of lorcaserin, you may qualify for a Belviq cancer lawsuit. After talking to your doctor, you may also want to talk to a lawyer. Morgan & Morgan, America’s largest injury law firm, has won significant verdicts and settlements against Big Pharma. Contact Morgan & Morgan and receive a free case review from our award-winning dangerous drug lawyers.
Dangerous Drugs – Elmiron
Elmiron is prescribed to patients who suffer from interstitial cystitis (IC), also known as painful bladder syndrome. For decades, Elmiron was thought to be both safe and effective for the treatment of IC. However, researchers discovered in 2018 that Elmiron is associated with a type of eye disease known as maculopathy. If you are a long-term Elmiron user who has experienced retinal changes, difficulty seeing, trouble reading, blurred vision, or limited low light vision, you may qualify for a lawsuit against manufacturer Janssen Pharmaceuticals. Morgan & Morgan is leading the nationwide Elmiron litigation and speaking to patients who may qualify for a lawsuit. It’s free to talk to us and our clients pay no legal fees unless we recover money for them. Trust our dangerous drug lawyers to hold Big Pharma accountable.
Dangerous Drugs – Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI)
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) such as Nexium, Protonix, Prilosec, and Prevacid are intended to reduce the amount of acid in a user’s stomach. Used to treat stomach ulcers, acid reflux, and esophageal-related conditions, PPIs are available both as a prescription drug and an over-the-counter medication. However, researchers have found they could be giving people chronic kidney disease, heart disease, and dementia. These drugs are supposed to make users feel better—not create new health problems. Morgan & Morgan’s dangerous drug lawyers are filing lawsuits on behalf of PPI users who have suffered kidney problems and other dangerous side effects. After talking to your doctor, you might also want to talk to a lawyer. Contact Morgan & Morgan to receive a free PPI lawsuit review.
Dangerous Drugs – Singulair
Singulair (montelukast) is prescribed to patients suffering from asthma or severe allergies. Singulair has been a blockbuster drug for its manufacturer, Merck & Co. But the billions in profits Merck made from Singulair might have come at the expense of patient safety. The FDA has warned that Singulair could lead to adverse mental health effects, including agitation, aggression, anxiousness, depression, insomnia, restlessness, and suicidal thinking. The drug now carries a “black box” warning label, but for years, patients took Singulair unaware of its dangerous side effects. Some of those patients are now filing Singulair lawsuits. Morgan & Morgan can let you know if you qualify for a case. As the largest personal injury firm in the country, we have the experience and resources to successfully take on Merck & Co., a multinational drug company worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
Dangerous Drugs – Talcum Powder
Johnson & Johnson’s talcum powder products are among the most well-known and trust products on the market. Or at least they were until it was discovered that talcum powder may contain asbestos. The asbestos in talcum powder has been linked to ovarian cancer and mesothelioma. Even worse, there’s evidence that J&J knew about asbestos in its talc products but concealed this negative information from the public. Talcum powder lawsuits have resulted in massive verdicts and settlements. These lawsuits continue to be filed and Morgan & Morgan is leading the charge to hold J&J accountable. If you were diagnosed with mesothelioma or ovarian cancer after using a talc-based product, our defective product lawyers are available 24/7 to provide a free legal consultation.
Dangerous Drugs – Zantac
Zantac (ranitidine) was one of the best-selling drugs in U.S. history—until it became the subject of a massive recall due to concerns over contamination with N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a probable human carcinogen. NDMA, linked to severe liver disease, liver cancer, and lung cancer, was recently detected in Zantac and other medications with the active ingredient ranitidine. The FDA issued a Zantac recall in April 2020, which prompted a flood of legal action against the manufacturers of ranitidine products, including Sanofi, Mylan, Glenmark, and Northwind. Taking on a big drug company requires a big law firm. Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury firm, is offering free Zantac cancer lawsuit case reviews. Find out why we’re trusted by millions during a complimentary legal consultation.
Dangerous Drugs – Zostavax
Merck’s Zostavax, designed for adults 50 years and older, was the first approved shingles vaccine for more than 11 years. This market exclusivity allowed Merck to pile up billions of dollars in profits. But more recently it has come to light that Zostavax can cause serious side effects and even death in the months following vaccine administration. These side effects include post-herpetic neuralgia, a painful nerve condition, as well as blindness, seizures, limb paralysis, brain damage, fatal liver failure, and shingles—the very condition the vaccine is supposed to prevent. The cure should not be worse than the disease. Morgan & Morgan is helping to lead Zostavax lawsuits nationwide. You may qualify for legal action if you developed a serious health condition within two years of receiving Zostavax. Taking on a big company requires a big law firm. We are America’s largest injury firm, trusted by millions.
Dangerous Drugs- Xeljanz
Xeljanz (tofacitinib) has been sold since 2012 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. It is now also sold to treat other types of arthritis and ulcerative colitis. Made by Pfizer, Xeljanz provided much-needed relief to patients suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions. But evidence has emerged that the drug may cause heart problems, blood clots, and even cancer. Medications are supposed to make people feel better—not worse. And when they have dangerous side effects, medications should carry prominent warnings that alert users. Xeljanz was sold for seven years before the FDA first warned about an increased risk of blood clots and death. It was sold for nine years before the FDA warned about Xeljanz and cardiovascular problems. What did Pfizer know about these deadly side effects, and when did they know it? Those are the questions Morgan & Morgan’s Xeljanz lawyers are investigating. Contact us to learn your legal rights.
Data Privacy Breach
Data Privacy Breaches can leave victims scrambling for a sense of security. When your private information is leaked to the public, malicious individuals can potentially use it to commit fraud in your name. Navigating the road of recovering your data, holding those accountable, and dealing with the possible life-long effects of your personal information being exposed to future attacks can be long and extremely difficult. At Morgan & Morgan, our experienced data privacy breach attorneys can help you navigate the tricky roads ahead.
Daycare Accidents
A child’s first day at daycare is difficult for many parents, as they’re likely nervous about leaving their child in the care of someone else. In most cases, your child will come home with a smile, but some parents aren’t so lucky. Accidents happen, and your child may return to your care with bruises, cuts, or emotional damage as a result of an accident in the daycare facility. If you find yourself in this situation, you’re likely very upset and frustrated with the daycare provider who harmed your child. While you may want to take action yourself, it’s very beneficial to retain a trusted attorney in these cases to ensure that the at-fault party is held accountable for their mistakes. Our daycare accident attorneys have seen your situation before, and they can help ensure that your child is safe from harm, but they can also pursue compensation for the hardship you’ve endured.
Deaf & Disability Rights
The ADA act helps protect people who are deaf or disabled defend themselves from discrimination. Unfortunately, in some cases, many people who are deaf and or disabled have their rights violated. Discriminatory actions against people with disabilities can result in various ways, including but not limited to the denial of interpreters, lack of structural accessibility, and denial of programs and services based on a person’s disability. However, the challenges may not end there; in many cases, filing a report for violation of their rights can be a long and challenging process. That’s where we come in.
Deaf/Disability Rights
At Morgan & Morgan, we’re committed to equality, justice and accessibility. The Morgan & Morgan Deaf and Disability Rights Unit works with deaf, deaf blind, hard of hearing, and persons with other disabilities to fight against discrimination and other injustices. Our deaf and disability rights attorneys handle civil cases involving all kinds of discrimination faced by persons with disabilities. Unfair or discriminatory practices against people with disabilities can occur in a variety of ways, including the denial of interpreters, lack of structural accessibility, and denial to programs and services based on a person’s disability.
Debt Collection Attorneys

If you have been harassed, or are unsure whether your debt collector’s actions qualify as harassment, we may be able to help. Our attorneys are experienced in a variety of practice areas. Please fill out our case review form today. An attorney will review your claim, at no cost or obligation to you.
Deck Collapse
Property owners must maintain the state of any structures within their premises, including buildings, walkways, stairwells, and deck areas. If they act negligently, the state of their property can deteriorate and pose a risk of injury to anyone who traverses the area. Collapses, while uncommon, can happen as a result of property owner negligence, and anyone who’s injured by a collapsing deck will likely sustain serious injuries from the fall. Between medical expenses and lost wages, you’ll have a lot to handle, but why should you have to endure the expense of their mistake? By teaming up with one of our deck collapse lawyers, you can hold the negligent party accountable for their mistake and pursue the compensation you need to get your life back on track.
Defective Products – 3M Earplugs
The 3M Company provided U.S. military members with service earplugs in order to protect their hearing from the loud blasts and noises associated with combat. 3M Combat Arms Earplugs, however, contained a defect that 3M knew about but failed to reveal. They supplied the earplugs anyway and made millions of dollars from the government. 3M paid a settlement to the government and has also been hit with thousands of lawsuits by U.S. service members who developed tinnitus and hearing loss after wearing the defective earplugs. Morgan & Morgan, the country’s largest personal injury law firm, supports the troops in their efforts to obtain justice against 3M. If you served in the military between 2003 and 2015 and used 3M earplugs, you may be eligible for a lawsuit. Schedule a free case review to learn more.
Defective Products – Aerosol Sunscreens
Daily sunscreen use is recommended to help prevent skin cancer. So it came as a shock when online testing lab Valisure detected benzene—a known human carcinogen—in dozens of sunscreen brands, including Neutrogena, Banana Boat, Fruit of the Earth, Hawaiian Tropic, and Coppertone. Johnson & Johnson issued a recall of certain benzene-contaminated sunscreens, but consumers are now rightly wondering whether the products they rely on to protect them from cancer aren’t, in fact, carcinogenic. Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest personal injury law firm, is investigating the link between sunscreen and cancer. Our sunscreen cancer lawyers are ready to review your claim, explain your legal options, and let you know how we can help during a no-cost, no-obligation case review.
Defective Products – Airbags
Airbags have proven to be an important vehicle safety device since their introduction in the 1970s. When they function properly, airbags significantly reduce the risks of serious injury and death in an accident. But airbags that don’t function properly, whether due to inflating too forcefully, not inflating at all, or going off when they aren’t supposed to, can cause injuries and even kill passengers. Most consumers are familiar with the notorious Takata airbags, but other types of airbags can malfunction as well. If an airbag in your vehicle malfunctioned and caused injury, you may be able to file an airbag lawsuit against the manufacturer of the airbag, the vehicle manufacturer, and other parties. Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury law firm, offers free case reviews and charges no upfront legal fees.
Defective Products – BMW 7-Series (2005-2008)
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a recall of more than 45,000 BMW 7-series sedans, including model year 2005 – 2008 BMW 7-Series, due to a rollaway problem caused by a software glitch in the vehicle’s keyless-entry and ignition system. Recalled vehicles in this lineup include the BMW 745i and 745Li (2005 model year), the BMW 750i and 750Li (2006-2008 model years), and the BMW 760i and 760Li (2005-2008 model years). BMW offered a free software update, but some owners may have missed the manufacturer’s notification. If you own an affected BMW and the vehicle rolled away and crashed when parked, you might be eligible for a legal claim against BMW. Owners of a recalled BMW—or any vehicle with a manufacturing defect—can reach out 24/7 to the defective product lawyers at Morgan & Morgan for a free case review.
Defective Products – Cottonelle Wipes
Cottonelle flushable wipes are marketed as an upgrade over toilet paper. According to the manufacturer, these wet wipes are supposed to be “gentle and effective for a truly refreshing clean” and are “designed for toilets and tested with plumbers, so you can rest assured that they are sewer and septic safe.” Consumers have alleged that both of these claims are inaccurate. Kimberly-Clark, which produces and sells Cottonelle Flushable Wipes, was forced to recall certain lots of wipes in 2020 over bacteria contamination. Homeowners have also claimed that the wipes did not break down the way they’re supposed to and caused them large plumbing bills. If you purchased Cottonelle Flushable Wipes that did not function as advertised, Morgan & Morgan’s defective product attorneys are available to review your claim.
Defective Products – E-cigarette explosions
That e-cigarette in your pocket might pose a health risk in more ways than one. Not only do e-cigarettes contain highly addictive nicotine—they also contain lithium ion batteries that, in some cases, catch fire and explode unexpectedly. E-cigarettes are linked to thousands of explosions and burn injuries each year. They can also cause eye injuries, lost teeth, lacerations, and traumatic brain injuries. E-cigarette batteries should not, under any circumstances, catch fire or explode. If yours did and injured you or others, the e-cigarette maker or battery manufacturer could be at fault. E-cigarette lawsuits can provide compensation for hospitalization, rehab, lost wages, physical pain, emotional distress, and other losses. These cases are complex and should not be trusted to just any law firm. Trust Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury law firm, with millions of satisfied customers and billions of dollars in recoveries.
Defective Products – Electric car accident battery fires
Lithium ion batteries are fueling the electric car revolution. But these batteries pose a fire risk. Lithium ion batteries that are improperly made, damaged, or contain faulty software can catch fire, and when they do, the fires are often very difficult to put out, sometimes taking 24 hours to extinguish. Electric car accident battery fires have been known to affect vehicles made by Tesla, Chevrolet, and other manufacturers. It goes without saying that your electric car’s battery should not catch on fire. However, it is sometimes difficult to pinpoint exactly what went wrong. Fault could lie with the vehicle manufacturer or the battery manufacturer. This technology is here to stay—and electric car battery lawsuits may be here to stay, too. If your electric vehicle battery caught on fire, you may be eligible for legal action. The product defect lawyers at Morgan & Morgan are available to review your claim for free.
Defective Products – Fireworks
Nobody needs to be told how enjoyable fireworks are. They may need a reminder, though, that fireworks can also be extremely dangerous. Every year during celebrations like the 4th of July, firework accidents result in deaths, injuries, and fires. The individuals and organizations that set off fireworks have a legal duty to make sure they are used in a safe manner that doesn’t cause preventable harm. Homeowners, public venue owners, event promoters, firework technicians, and other parties could be held liable for firework accidents. If you were injured by fireworks and somebody else’s negligence played a role, you may want to speak to a lawyer about your legal options. Morgan & Morgan, America’s largest injury law firm, provides free case reviews and charges no upfront legal fees. Find out why we are trusted by millions of satisfied clients.
Defective Products – Ford Explorer
The Explorer is one of Ford’s most iconic and best-selling models. Ford sells more than 200,000 Explorers each year. But over the years, certain Explorer models have been plagued by defects and manufacturer recalls. The latest of these recalls was issued in July 2021. It affects 2013 – 2017 Ford Explorer vehicles that could experience a seized cross-axis ball joint. Signs of this defect include a clunk noise, unusual handling, or a misaligned wheel. A fractured rear suspension toe link diminishes steering control and increases the risk of a crash. If your Ford Explorer crashed because of this manufacturing defect—or any other defect—you may be entitled to take legal action and recover compensation. Morgan & Morgan’s award-winning product defect lawyers are available to review your automotive claim 24/7.
Defective Products – Home Depot chairs
The Home Depot is a one-stop shopping destination for almost any conceivable home improvement project. The company carries around 35,000 products in its stores and offers millions of products online. Some of the Home Depot’s products, however, are hazardous to consumers, including the StyleWell Wood Windsor Dining Chair. The back of these chairs, sold in sets of two, can detach, posing a fall hazard. This isn’t the first time there’s been a Home Depot chair recall. In 2017, the company recalled millions of patio chairs because of a similar fall hazard. Even though Home Depot does not make the products they sell, they are responsible for the safety of their in-store and online products. If you bought defective Home Depot chairs, you may be eligible for a refund, a replacement, or even a product defect lawsuit. Contact Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury law firm, for a free case review.
Defective Products – Hyundai Fire
Hyundai ranks among the top-selling vehicle brands in the United States. The automaker has carved out a reputation for building quality, reliable cars and SUVs. But that reputation has taken a hit recently with the news that some of its vehicles have defects that can lead to engine fires. Affected vehicles include the 2013 – 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, the 2019 – 2020 Elantra, the 2019 – 2021 Kona, and 2019 – 2021 Veloster. According to Hyundai, the Elantra, Veloster, and Kona vehicles may have improperly heat-treated piston oil rinks that could cause oil to leak onto hot exhaust components, sparking a fire. The Santa Fe Sport engine fires are caused by a possible short in the anti-lock braking module. Did your Hyundai catch on fire? You may qualify for a Hyundai fire lawsuit. Reach out to Morgan & Morgan to check your eligibility.
Defective Products – Instant Pot
Instant Pot is one of the most popular culinary devices to hit the market in recent years. The multicooker, a combination of a pressure cooker and a slow cooker, comes in many different models. One of those models, the IP-DUO60 V2, was recalled due to a defect that can result in the pot exploding. All Instant Pot products purchased prior to October 2017, even if not recalled, are potentially dangerous to consumers. This is not the first time that Instant Pot models have been recalled, either. And it may not be the last time. If you own an Instant Pot that malfunctioned and caused injury and/or property damage, you may be eligible to recover compensation from the manufacturer. It is not necessary for the model to be recalled in order to qualify for legal action. You can learn your full legal rights during a free case review with Morgan & Morgan’s defective product lawyers.
Defective Products – JUUL
Tobacco companies paid a huge price for decades of selling their deadly products to the public. Some of the billions they agreed to pay as part of the historic tobacco settlement went to smoking cessation campaigns that were highly effective. But JUUL, which came out in 2015, threatens to undo years of anti-smoking progress. JUUL is synonymous with the “vaping” phenomenon. JUUL products are billed as a healthier alternative to cigarettes but they have their own addiction and health risks. And their use of fruity flavors and social media marketing directly targets young smokers, paving the way for a new generation of nicotine addicts. If you became addicted to nicotine by using JUUL vaporizers before you were 18 years old and before November of 2018, you may deserve compensation from the manufacturer. Find out by scheduling a free case review with Morgan & Morgan’s product liability lawyers.
Defective Products – Paraquat
Paraquat is one of the most widely used herbicides on the planet. It is also one of the most dangerous. Paraquat, commonly sold under the trade name Gramoxone and manufactured by Syngenta, is so toxic that a single sip can kill an adult. But scientists have more recently drawn attention to the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease from long-term, low-level paraquat exposure. This can occur among farmers, agricultural workers, and people who live near farming operations. One prominent study found that those who use are regularly exposed to paraquat are twice as likely to develop Parkinson’s. Paraquat lawsuits are now being filed nationwide, and Morgan & Morgan is leading the fight against Syngenta. Taking on a big chemical company requires a big law firm. We are nation’s largest personal injury firm, trusted by millions. Learn your rights during a free case review.
Defective Products – Philips CPAP
People who suffer from sleep apnea often use a special machine that helps them breathe correctly while they sleep. Philips Respironics, a leading manufacturer of sleep apnea machines, has recalled several models, including the DreamStation, the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine, and the Bi-Level Positive Airway Pressure machine. The reason for the recall is that these devices can create toxic foam that goes directly into the tube that users breathe through. This defect has been linked to cancer, headaches, airway irritations, respiratory infections, liver and kidney damage, and increased breathing problems. If you used any of the recalled Philips sleep apnea machines, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit. Morgan & Morgan can help. As the nation’s largest injury law firm, we have the resources and the strength to take on big medical device companies.
Defective Products – Polaris RZR Off-Road Vehicle
The Polaris RZR is a sport side-by-side recreational off-road vehicle. First introduced in 2013, the Polaris RZR paved the way for the sport UTV market, offering a fun, fast, and sporty package. But since its introduction, the RZR has been plagued by defects, including fires. The CPSC fined Polaris nearly $30 million for late-reporting claims related to fire hazards. Anyone with an affected vehicle should immediately stop driving it and schedule a free inspection and repair with a Polaris dealer. There have been hundreds of RZR fires that have killed several people and seriously burned others. Many of the victims have been young. In addition to fires, RZRs may be prone to rollover accidents and could have other defects that make them more likely to crash. The defective product lawyer at Morgan & Morgan are here to review your Polaris RZR Off-Road Vehicle claims 24/7 and free of charge.
Defective Products – Subaru Unintended Acceleration
Sudden, unintended acceleration has been reported in several models of Subaru vehicles, including the 2012 – 2018 Forester, the 2015 – 2019 Outback, and the 2015 – 2019 Legacy. Owners have reported that their Subaru accelerated without warning—and without their input—and would not stop. Some say it occurred when their foot was on the brake pedal. Subaru unintended acceleration can be terrifying. It can also be extremely dangerous. A car that accelerates on its own could crash and cause property damage, injuries, and fatalities. Subaru unintended acceleration lawsuits have been filed. If you own an affected model, you may be eligible for legal action. To find out what compensation you might qualify for, contact a defective product attorney at Morgan & Morgan and schedule a free case review.
Defective Products – Table Saw Injury
Table saws are a staple of do-it-yourselfers and professional contractors. They have large, circular blades mounted on an arbor and powered by an electric motor. The blades make quick work of wood and whatever else gets in their way, including the operator’s fingers and hands. Table saws have safety equipment that is supposed to minimize the risk of injury, but despite this, thousands of people are injured by table saws every year. Not all table saw injuries are the result of user error. Table saws may have defects that make them unreasonably dangerous. If you were injured by a table saw, fault may lie with the manufacturer. You owe it to yourself to discuss your injuries with the defective product lawyers at Morgan & Morgan. Schedule a free case review and find out why we’re trusted by millions.
Defective Products – Takata Airbags
Takata airbags will go down as one of the greatest product disasters in automotive history. Installed in tens of millions of vehicles made by virtually every major automaker, Takata airbags contained a chemical additive that, when exposed to heat and humidity, could explode during deployment. Exploding Takata airbags have been linked to dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries. Despite a massive effort to replace affected airbags, some vehicle owners are still driving around with Takata airbags. And the NHTSA recently began another investigation into 30 million vehicles built between 2001 and 2019 equipped with Takata airbags. As the long-running Takata airbag saga drags on, Morgan & Morgan will continue to fight for the people, against the powerful companies that continue to put motorists’ lives at risk.
Defective Products – Tesla Fires
Tesla is on fire these days, and not just in terms of its popularity. The Tesla’s battery is one of its strongest features, delivering 300 travel miles or more on a single charge. Tesla’s batteries also have a more dubious distinction, though: they can catch on fire and burn for many hours. Elon Musk says Tesla battery fires have been blown out of proportion. Consumers whose Tesla caught on fire would beg to differ. There have been at least 20 reported Tesla fires since 2013. The fires may occur while the vehicle is in motion or when it is charging or simply parked. Tesla fires have the potential to cause serious injuries and spread to nearby structures. The Tesla battery fire lawyers at Morgan & Morgan offer free case reviews and handle all personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis. Let us review your Tesla fire claim, without obligation or cost.
Defective Products – Tesla Model 3
Tesla’s Model 3 is the most popular plug-in electric vehicle in the world. With impressive acceleration, innovative technology like Autopilot, and a range of around 250 to 300 miles on a single charge, the Model 3 has endeared itself to owners. The Tesla Model 3, however, has its share of faults. Its Autopilot does not always respond appropriately to real world driving situations and has been blamed for serious and fatal accidents. Tesla Model 3 batteries can also catch on fire and burn for many hours. And some owners have complained that their Model 3 is simply a lemon, but the company does not honor the vehicle warranty. Taking on a big auto manufacturer like Tesla requires a big law firm. Morgan & Morgan, America’s largest injury law firm, can help you with a wide range of Tesla Model 3 issues.

Defective Products – Tire Blowouts
More than 33,000 accidents occur each year due to tires, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. Approximately 2,000 of these accidents are related to tire blowouts. There is never an opportune time for tires to fail. But when the vehicle is in motion, tire failure can result in a loss of control and a crash. Tires should be regularly replaced, inflated, and inspected to ensure they’re in good working order. But sometimes, tires can fail due to a manufacturing defect. If your tires failed unexpectedly and caused an accident, you may be able to take legal action against the manufacturer or another party. Morgan & Morgan’s product defect lawyers are available 24/7 to review your claim and explain your legal options.
Defective Products – Tire Tread Separation
Tire failure is responsible for around 11,000 crashes and 200 deaths each year. Tread separation, which occurs when the belt beneath a tire tread comes apart and begins to separate from the rest of the tire, is a potential cause of tire failure. If your tires are relatively new and have good remaining tread, this type of separation should not happen. Tread separation could be the result of a manufacturing defect. Although major recalls are periodically announced for tread separations, this problem could affect tires that are not recalled. Tire tread separation that causes an accident may be grounds for a lawsuit. Morgan & Morgan’s product defect lawyers are available 24/7 to review your claim and explain your legal options.
Defective Products – Toyota RAV4 Fires
The Toyota RAV4 is a perennial best seller. Toyota sells close to half a million RAV4 vehicles every year in the U.S. and globally, more than 10 million units have been sold all time. A recent string of major recalls has damaged Toyota’s reputation for quality. The latest major RAV4 issue involves fire coming from the engine compartment. The NHTSA is investigating Toyota RAV4 fires, which the agency suspects comes from a problem with the 12-volt battery. Model year 2013-2018 RAV4s are covered by the investigation. Owners have reported fires while driving and while the ignition was off. Regardless of what the NHTSA finds, vehicle fires are unacceptable and could be the basis of a lawsuit. Morgan & Morgan is performing its own investigation of Toyota RAV4 fires. We encourage owners to share their stories with us during a no-cost, no-obligation case review.
Defective Products – West Texas Fertilizer Plant Explosion
In 2013, a deadly fertilizer plant explosion rocked the small community of West, Texas. The explosion was the result of ammonium nitrate used at the plant. Ammonium nitrate is highly explosive and, when exposed to an ignition source, can produce a powerful fireball that causes massive damage. Plants like the one in West, Texas continue to operate across the United States. Nitrogen fertilizer plants are found in Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Idaho, Illinois, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Texas, Wyoming, and other states. Explosions at these plants are an ever-present threat. They’re also preventable. When workers suffer injuries or die in fertilizer plant explosions, these accidents need to be promptly investigated. Workers and their families may be able to file a lawsuit to recover compensation. Plant explosion lawyers at Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury law firm, are available 24/7 to provide a free case review.
Defective Products – Yamaha Rhino
The Yamaha Rhino, produced from 2004 to 2012, has been largely eclipsed by newer, more powerful, and more sporty UTV models. Although it was a hit with consumers and pioneered the UTV movement, the Rhino was plagued throughout its production life by legal issues. According to the CPSC, at least 59 riders have been killed in Rhino accidents, including rollover accidents. Hundreds of thousands of Yamaha Rhino UTVs were recalled before the vehicle was finally discontinued. But newer UTVs are arguably as dangerous—or more dangerous—than the Rhino. The CPSC is continually issuing off-road vehicle recalls due to issues like rollovers, fires, and sticking throttles. Morgan & Morgan’s personal injury lawyers handle UTV, ATV, and side by side lawsuits across the country. We offer free case reviews and charge no upfront legal fees.
Discrimination
Discrimination in the workplace can leave you feeling isolated and unprotected. Employment and labor laws prohibit unfair or discriminatory treatment of an applicant or employee based on race, color, sex, religion, national origin, age, disability, or parental status. Yet, you’ve found yourself taking steps to file a case against your employer. Like in so many cases, filing a claim is the first step in an uphill battle for justice, which can have many bumps along the road. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have decades of experience handling discrimination cases, helping victims just like you get the justice they deserve.
Dog Bite Injuries
Dog bite injuries are some of the most traumatic that a person can sustain. Not only is there physical damage from the bite, but it can also result in significant mental anguish that makes it difficult for the victim to be around dogs in the future. You’ll want to seek medical attention to determine the extent of the damage, but this is often expensive, and the combination of all your expenses can quickly become more painful than the injury itself. No one should have to live in fear, especially after a situation that could have been avoided if the dog owner acted responsibly. By teaming up with one of our experienced dog bite attorneys, you can advocate for the severity of your situation and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet. Contact us today!
Dog Bites
At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have successfully handled claims on behalf of dog bite victims, either through negotiations with the owner’s insurance company or litigation. We are well-versed in statutes enacted to protect the rights of our dog bite victims and understand that acting quickly following a dog bite is vital in protecting these rights. An immediate investigation can help establish liability for the bite and determine whether insurance coverage applies.
Elder Abuse – Elder Abuse
Elder abuse is so shocking that many struggle to comprehend that it is occurring to somebody they love. Malnutrition and dehydration, emotional withdrawal, bruises or bleeding, unexplained illness, missing money, and changes to a power of attorney could be signs that elder abuse is taking place. You may, understandably, be hesitant to take your suspicions to a caretaker, nursing home, or long term care facility. But who can you trust to investigate possible nursing home abuse? The elder abuse attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are here to help. We can conduct a comprehensive investigation into your concerns and, if evidence proving abuse is uncovered, we can hold the abusers accountable for their unthinkable actions. Find out why we’re America’s largest and most trusted personal injury law firm during a free consultation.
Elder Abuse – Nursing Home Abuse
Nationwide, there are approximately 1.4 million people living in nursing homes. The majority of them receive the care they need at a time in their life when they’re unable to care for themselves. But nursing home abuse is an all-too-common problem. Making matters more complicated, the victims of nursing home abuse don’t always speak out about what’s happening. Often, it is up to their loved ones to discover abuse or neglect and take actions to stop it. A civil lawsuit against the facility where elder abuse is occurring can provide compensation to pay for better treatment. It can also ensure that other nursing home residents don’t fall prey to similar behavior. If you suspect that a loved one is being mistreated in a nursing home, the nursing home abuse attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are available 24/7 to explain your legal options. Your family deserves the best. You deserve Morgan & Morgan.
Electrocution Accident
Electrical work is a more dangerous job than most, as one mistake can potentially land you in the hospital. If you’re having electrical issues on your property, you’ll likely call a repairman unless you’re trained to fix it yourself, but even highly trained electricians can make mistakes in their work. Faulty or improperly installed wiring in your home creates a hazardous scenario for everyone involved, and if you sustain an injury as a result of negligent electrical work, you’ll have a long road to recovery ahead of you. Medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses can quickly pile up and become more painful than the injury itself, but why should you have to pay for an accident you didn’t cause? By teaming up with one of our experienced electrocution accident attorneys, you can hold the negligent party accountable for their mistake and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Elevator Accident
You chose your desired floor, but instead of reaching your destination, your elevator failed and dropped down to the bottom of the shaft. Elevator accidents are something out of a nightmare, but they’re a very painful reality for anyone who’s involved in one. Property managers are required to maintain the integrity of all elevator units within their property to prevent the equipment from failing during use. Unfortunately, some property managers act negligently and fail to uphold safety standards, causing innocent individuals to sustain painful injuries. If you were harmed in an elevator accident, you’re likely still shaken from the experience and might not know the best next step to take. By teaming up with one of our experienced elevator accident attorneys, you can hold the negligent party accountable for their mistake and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Eminent Domain
Eminent domain claims can be a difficult challenge for property owners. While a property owner may not be able to stop the government from seizing their land, they do have the right, however, to challenge an eminent domain claim and to demand just compensation for their seized land. The process of an eminent domain case is complicated and heavy and can leave many property owners in over their heads while navigating the steps to get to trial for their case. This is why having the right attorneys on your case to help is critical. See why millions trust Morgan & Morgan.
Employment Law
The employment attorneys of Morgan & Morgan’s Business Trial Group are dedicated to achieving the maximum recovery for our clients. We have recovered millions of dollars for employees who have been wrongfully denied compensation, as well as businesses with claims regarding contractual disputes or unfair competition.
FELA
FELA or the Federal Employers Liability Act has been protecting railroad workers since 1908. Working on the railroad is a taxing and challenging job that can often result in serious injuries, including sudden traumatic injuries, cumulative wear-and-tear injuries, or health damage caused by exposure to unsafe solvents or chemicals. When these injuries do occur, it’s imperative that you file a FELA claim to ensure you’re getting the benefits you deserve. However, at Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys can help you navigate through the process of filing a FELA claim after you’ve been injured on the job.
FINRA Arbitration
FINRA arbitrations occur when clients have suffered investment losses after their financial advisors failed to disclose the risks associated with a particular investment, used high-pressure tactics to make a sale, or recommended frequent trades to generate commissions. Going through the four steps of a FINRA arbitration filing a claim, selecting arbitrators, conducting discovery, and then going through a hearing can be a long and challenging process if not handled properly. And because FINRA arbitrations decisions are final and can only be appealed in limited circumstances, it can be critical to ensure you have all the proper and correct resources available to you. That’s where Morgan & Morgan can help you.
FMLA
FMLA helps millions of people each from losing their source of income when in need of leave. Under the law, it is illegal for employers to fire or change the role of a worker who is taking FMLA leave. Those employees covered by their employers and are eligible for FMLA may take unpaid leave without the looming threat of losing their job. They also maintain any work-supplied health insurance coverage during their leave. Unfortunately, some employers would see this moment in time as an opportunity to remove you from your current role in order to avoid giving you the benefits you are entitled to. For those victims who have experienced a change in their role or have been let go due to leave, our FMLA attorneys have a proven track record of helping victims get the full and fair compensation they deserve from their employers.
Food Poisoning
You took a chance and tried the new restaurant on your block, but when you arrived home, you realized that something you ate wasn’t agreeing with you. Food poisoning frequently happens, as some restaurants and food suppliers act negligently with their cleaning procedures and serve contaminated or expired food to their customers. If your food poisoning is severe, you might have to call in sick for work, or in some cases, seek medical treatment for the issue. This is all very expensive, but why should you have to pay for their negligence? By teaming up with one of our experienced food poisoning attorneys, you can navigate through the legal process of your situation with ease and pursue the compensation you deserve for the hardship you’ve endured.
Forklift Accidents
Forklifts offer many benefits for any work environment, but they’re also very dangerous to all workers on the premises. Forklift operators undergo training before they’re allowed to operate the equipment, but they can make mistakes and accidentally collide with an unsuspecting employee, causing them to sustain painful injuries. If you were injured by a forklift, you’ll want to notify your employer immediately so they can begin the workers’ compensation process and get you paid. However, some employers will act unethically and fail to submit the claims of their injured employees. This is unacceptable and can force you to pay for the accident out-of-pocket. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to.
Fracking
Fracking can cause severe harmful effects for those in the neighboring communities as well as those workers who are working on drilling for gas and oil due to the use of over 1,000 toxic chemicals. Not only can worrying about the potential harm be a cause of stress, but in the scenario that you do end up injured, going forward with an injury case can be even more difficult when going it alone. At Morgan & Morgan, our Toxics and Environmental Litigation Groups can help you seek out the full justice you deserve for your damages.
Golf Cart Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
An unexpected golf cart crash ends your day of outdoor recreation early, but the repercussions don’t stop there. Although golf cart crashes aren’t as significant as car or truck accidents, you can still walk away from the wreck with painful injuries that make it difficult to live your everyday life. Broken bones, painful bruises, and lacerations are common with this type of accident, and if you sustained any of these injuries, you should seek medical attention to determine how bad the damage is. However, that medical treatment isn’t free, and the financial strain of your expenses can quickly become more painful than the injury itself. By teaming up with our experienced golf cart accident attorneys, you can advocate for the severity of your situation and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Government fraud
When individuals seek to secure unwarranted funds from the United States, they are committing what is known as government fraud and are in direct violation of the False Claims Act. Government fraud has been known to occur in nearly every industry that enters into a contract with the federal government and it can be an extremely long and challenging process for those whistleblowers who filed a claim against those perpetrators. At Morgan and Morgan, our whistleblower attorneys have the knowledge and experience to help you prosecute a fraudulent party in any industry.
Groundwater Contamination
Groundwater contamination can cause life-threatening side effects to those who have been exposed to it. While taking on the fight against the slew of health issues you are now facing, taking on those negligent companies responsible for your damages can often lead to exhaustion and in some cases failure to seek justice on your own. With Morgan & Morgan, we have the resources to help you take on major polluting companies to get you the justice you deserve.
Health Privacy Breach
Health privacy breaches can have devastating consequences for those who place their trust in companies that offer seemingly secure protection of their sensitive information. Then when those victims go to seek justice, like in so many cases, filing a claim is the first step in a seemingly never-ending uphill battle, which can have many bumps along the road. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have decades of experience handling health privacy breach cases, helping victims just like you get the justice they deserve for their damages.
Healthcare Fraud
Healthcare fraud can be an intimidating experience since the government does not have a group of medical professionals. Companies will often charge for unnecessary services without the government’s knowledge. Whistleblowers who come forward in fraud cases to help recover stolen taxpayer money can often find themselves at the beginning of a long and challenging process. At Morgan & Morgan, our experienced False Claims Act attorneys know how to minimize the risks and maximize opportunities to develop viable cases.
Helicopter Crashes, Accidents, & Wrecks
Helicopter crashes have the potential to cause catastrophic damage to both people and property. The pilots of these aircraft have to undergo significant training before they’re allowed to fly, but mechanical errors can result in an experienced pilot finding themselves in a wreck. When an accident does occur, the surviving members should seek medical treatment for their injuries, which can be an expensive task. The combination of your expenses and your physical, mental, and emotional injuries can make your recovery much more difficult, making the compensation from your insurance claim that much more important. By teaming up with our helicopter accident attorneys, you can save yourself from financial harm and return to the life you lived before the accident. Contact us today!
Hurricane & Storm Damage
IRS Tax Fraud
Whistleblowers who come forward in IRS tax fraud cases to help recover stolen taxpayer money can often find themselves at the beginning of a long and challenging process of filing a claim, providing evidence, and handling the emotion behind the risk of reporting those fraudulent parties. At Morgan and Morgan, our whistleblower attorneys have the expertise and experience to help you prosecute a fraudulent party and know how to minimize the risks and maximize opportunities to develop these viable cases.
Insurance Claims
At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys understand that when a policyholder who has paid insurance premiums submits a claim to their insurance company, they expect the company will act in good faith and honor the validity of the claim. However, many times the insurance company does not do what is right and honor the claim. Disputes often arise after an insurance company denies a valid claim, many times without a legitimate reason or explanation.
Insurance Disputes
Insurance Disputes – Accidental Death & Dismemberment
Accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) is a type of life insurance that provides a payout in the event of the accidental death of the insured, or a traumatic bodily injury to the insured. Often sold as an add-on to standard life insurance, AD&D policies are generally quite restrictive. They contain numerous exclusions, or circumstances in which the insurer will not provide coverage. But that doesn’t mean all AD&D denials are legitimate. Insurers often rely on consumers not understanding convoluted policy language. Insurance companies do not get the final word. You have the right to challenge an insurance denial. Let Morgan & Morgan’s insurance claim lawyers review your policy. Upon closer inspection, it may turn out that you are in fact entitled to coverage. Learn more during a free case review.
Insurance Disputes – Bad Faith Claims
Insurance policies have what is known as an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. This means that the insurance company has an obligation to act fairly and honestly towards its policyholders. A denied claim does not necessarily mean—but it could mean—that the insurer has acted in bad faith. Examples of insurance bad faith include denying a claim without providing a reason, not performing a prompt and thorough investigation of a submitted claim, offering less than what a claim is worth, and refusing to pay a valid claim. Insurance policy language is complex and difficult for non-insurance experts to understand. If your claim was delayed, denied, or underpaid, know that the insurance company does not get the last word. It is your right to challenge their decision. Let Morgan & Morgan take a second look. Schedule a free case review with our insurance dispute lawyers.
Insurance Disputes – Business Interruption
There are no guarantees in business. To protect against unexpected closures that can threaten a business owner’s livelihood, many businesses carry business interruption insurance. This insurance can cover revenue, mortgage and rent payments, taxes, payroll, relocation costs, training costs, and other operating expenses when a business is forced to close due to a covered loss. Having your business interruption insurance claim denied can be devastating to your company. But you don’t have to take the insurer’s word for it. Let Morgan & Morgan take another look, and we’ll let you know if the insurance company is treating you fairly. We offer free business interruption and loss of business insurance case reviews. For answers to your insurance questions, please contact us.
Insurance Disputes – Business Property Losses
Your business is your livelihood, and you insure it accordingly. But if you’ve ever looked at the fine print of an insurance policy, you know how jargon-dense and confusing the language is. This works to the insurance company’s advantage, giving them wiggle room to delay, deny, and underpay claims. If your insurer did not honor your business insurance claim, it could be a simple misinterpretation. It could also be an instance of insurance bad faith. You do not have to simply accept the insurance company’s word. Policyholders have rights, including the right to challenge a denied claim. Morgan & Morgan is here to help. Let us take a second look at your policy, and we’ll let you know if you’re being treated fairly. Schedule a free business property loss case review to learn more.
Insurance Disputes – Cast Iron Pipes
You’re careful to inspect your home and take care of small problems before they become major issues. But not all problems are easy to spot. If your house has cast iron pipes, which were commonly installed prior to 1975, they could be at or near the end of their service life. Cast iron pipes have a lifespan of 50 to 75 years. When they begin to fail, you may notice slow drainage, water stains, bad smells, pest infestations, leaks, and other issues. A plumber should be contacted to inspect cast iron pipes that you suspect are failing. Many insurance policies cover damage caused by cast iron pipes. They might also cover pipe replacement costs. But you could have to fight the insurance company to get what you deserve. Let Morgan & Morgan review your policy: contact us for a free cast iron pipes case review.
Insurance Disputes – Fire Claims
Fire damage is a worst case scenario for homeowners. If a fire does not succeed in destroying the entire house, it can still do tremendous damage to the structure and your personal property. You might assume that fire damage is covered by your homeowners policy. The insurance company could have other ideas. While your policy may have fire exclusions, such as exclusions for smoke and water damage, insurance companies are known to deny legitimate claims. But policyholder have rights, including the right to challenge an insurer’s decision. Don’t take on the insurance company alone. Let Morgan & Morgan review your policy and explain your coverage. Our fire damage insurance claim dispute lawyers have decades of experience and offer free case reviews.
Insurance Disputes – Flood Claims
Flood damage is not typically covered by a standard homeowners or business insurance policy. Instead, home and business owners must purchase flood insurance. In fact, depending on where you live and the type of loan you have, you may be required to purchase flood insurance. You’d think that flood damage insurance claims would be pretty straightforward. But this assumption ignores the fact that the insurance industry often denies legitimate claims in order to maximize profits. After a flood, trust Morgan & Morgan to make sure that the insurance company treats you fairly. We’ll handle the flood of paperwork and questions that can come with an insurance claim. We’ve helped thousands of policyholders recover hundreds of millions of dollars. Find out how we can help you: schedule a free flood damage insurance claim case review.
Insurance Disputes – Hail Damage
Hail can be incredibly damaging. Hail storms tend to come on suddenly and without warning. Within minutes, they can cause devastating property damage. Your insurance company will probably dispatch a contractor or engineer to evaluate the damage to your home, business, or vehicle. But you shouldn’t just rely on them. Take pictures of everything affected by the hail and know that you may have to fight the insurance company to get every dime you deserve. Morgan & Morgan is here to help with delayed, denied, and underpaid hail damage insurance claims. We have more than 800 attorneys and an entire department dedicated to insurance disputes. You can’t stop hail, but you can stop the insurance company from mistreating you. Schedule a free case review with Morgan & Morgan, and let us take a second look at your policy.
Insurance Disputes – Homeowners Insurance
A home is the biggest purchase that most people make. Homeowners insurance is designed to protect that investment from a variety of risks, including property damage, fire, wind, hail, and theft. The actual coverage provided is found in the fine print of the insurance policy. Many homeowners pay their insurance fees for years without filing a claim. And when the time comes to file a claim, they might be shocked to learn that the insurance company denies, delays, or underpays their claim. While some denials are legitimate, others are nothing more than attempts to maximize insurer profits. If your claim was denied, you don’t have to take the insurance company’s word for it. Contact the homeowners insurance dispute lawyers at Morgan & Morgan and learn how we can help.
Insurance Disputes – Hurricane
A hurricane has the power to destroy homes, businesses, and entire communities in a matter of hours. Hurricanes are somewhat predictable. They occur seasonably and people in the path of a hurricane have advanced warning that a storm is coming. But you can’t always predict how the insurance company will react to a hurricane claim. If your home or business suffered hurricane damage, and your insurance company delays, denies, or underpays your claim, you have the right as a policyholder to demand fair treatment. Don’t accept “no” from the insurance company without first talking to Morgan & Morgan. It costs nothing to let us take a second look at your hurricane insurance policy. And if we find you have been treated unfairly, we can file a lawsuit against the insurance company on your behalf. Contact a hurricane insurance claim attorney at Morgan & Morgan to learn more.
Insurance Disputes – Life Insurance
You can’t put a price on the life of a loved one. But thanks to life insurance, if a loved one dies, the surviving family members can at least have a measure of financial security. That’s how life insurance is supposed to work, anyway. Insurance companies may try to avoid paying a death benefit if they think they can get away with it. And they might get away with it if you do not challenge a denied claim. Whether you purchased life insurance to protect yourself financially in the event of the death of a family member, business partner, executive, or employee, you have rights as the beneficiary. Morgan & Morgan is here to make sure your insurance rights are upheld. Our life insurance claim attorneys can review your case free of charge. We also work on a contingency fee basis, so you pay no upfront fees. Let us take a second look at your policy: schedule a free case review.
Insurance Disputes – Lightning Damage
A bolt of lightning firing across the sky can be awe-inspiring. But if lighting struck your property, you might be in awe of how much damage was caused. Each bolt of electricity can contain up to one billion volts of electricity. Even more shocking, however, is the way that insurance companies can treat their loyal customers. Most property insurance policies cover lightning damage, including from fires and fried electrical systems. But even if you have coverage, the insurance company might delay, deny, or lowball your claim. When this happens, your first call should be to Morgan & Morgan. Our Insurance Recovery Group is dedicated to protecting the rights of the insured. Don’t take “no” for an answer. Let us take a second look at your policy, and we’ll let you know if you’re being treated fairly.
Insurance Disputes – Long-Term Disability
Most people assume they will not suffer a disability during their lifetime. But nearly 400,000 Americans become disabled every year. Long-term disability coverage is designed to financially protect those who are unable to work due to disability. It covers a percentage of the insured’s wages while they’re disabled and is a critical safety net. Without insurance, most people cannot live off their savings during a period of disability. But even with long-term disability insurance, there’s a chance that the insurance company will deny your claim. They might claim that you’re not actually disabled, or that your condition is excluded. You can’t afford to be told “no” by the insurance company. The long-term disability lawyers at Morgan & Morgan can help with denied, delayed, and underpaid claims. Contact us for a free long-term disability case review.
Insurance Disputes – Motor Vehicles and claims for high value property (boats, planes, RVs)
Aside from a home, a person’s most valuable property is likely to be their motor vehicle, or a sports and leisure vehicle, such as an RV, boat, or plane. Boats, RVs, aircraft, classic cars, motorcycles, and RVs are not covered under a general home or auto policy. They require their own policy. Purchasing a separate policy is well worth it to protect your high value property. But you might be left wondering what, exactly, you paid for if the insurance company delays, denies, or underpays your claim. You’re passionate about the things you insure, and we’re passionate about helping people receive the insurance coverage they deserve. Morgan & Morgan’s Insurance Recovery Group is a team of attorneys dedicated to protecting the rights of the insured. To find out how we can help with an insurance dispute, schedule a free case review.
Insurance Disputes – PIP Claims
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is a type of automotive insurance that some states require motorists to purchase. Also known as no-fault insurance, PIP insurance is mandatory in states that include Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Utah. If you live in a PIP state and are involved in an accident, you make a claim directly with your insurance company, regardless of who was at fault. This system is meant to reduce contentious insurance claims and lawsuits, but just because you’re dealing with “your” insurance company doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be treated fairly. PIP policyholders have rights, including the right to challenge their insurer’s denial, delayed payment, or lowball payment. Morgan & Morgan can review your PIP insurance policy for free. Contact our insurance dispute attorneys to learn more.
Insurance Disputes – Quarry Blasting Damage Claims
Rock quarries use powerful explosives as part of their mining operations. These explosives are strong enough to instantaneously destroy layers of solid rock, but they can also cause damage to nearby homes and businesses. Cracks in walls and foundations, water leaks, ceiling cracks, and broken windows could be signs of blasting damage. Home and business insurance policies typically cover blasting damage. Exclusions for blasting damage are uncommon because this type of damage has only become a serious problem in certain areas recently. If you submitted a blasting damage insurance claim that was denied, it’s worth getting another opinion. Let Morgan & Morgan’s insurance dispute lawyers take a second look. Your initial consultation is free, and you do not pay a penny unless we win compensation for you.
Insurance Disputes – Sinkholes
A sinkhole is a hole in the ground that forms from erosion. Sinkholes are relatively common in Florida due to the state’s topography and precipitation. When a sinkhole is discovered on private property, the owner should take steps to prevent the problem from getting worse. If a sinkhole develops on your property, you’ll probably need to call the insurance company so they can evaluate it. But you may not be satisfied with what they tell you. Morgan and Morgan’s sinkhole claim attorneys understand how to protect our clients’ rights when filing and, if necessary, appealing a sinkhole insurance claim. We have dealt with insurance companies that failed to provide an adequate sum of money for these claims, forcing our clients to merely “bandage” damaged areas. We’ve also represented clients whose sinkhole claims were denied. Get a second opinion on your insurance claim: contact Morgan & Morgan for a free case review.
Insurance Disputes – Tornadoes
The United States is the epicenter of global tornado activity. In particular, parts of the Midwest known as “tornado alley” are prone to these incredibly devastating storms, which can appear in an instant with wind speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. About 1,200 tornadoes touch down in the U.S. every year, causing close to $10 billion in property damage. You don’t need special insurance to protect against tornado damage; a standard homeowners or business property insurance policy should cover tornadoes. However, what is—and is not—covered is a matter of what’s in the fine print. Policy language is written for the benefit of insurance companies. Policyholders dealing with tornado damage are within their rights to get a second opinion on an insurance claim. If your tornado damage insurance claim is denied, delayed, or underpaid, contact Morgan & Morgan for a free case review.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property in the information age is more vulnerable than ever to misappropriation. In many cases, the damages available can include lost profits, disgorgement of profits, price erosion, royalties, unjust enrichment, attorney fees, and cost. However, unlike larger corporations, small businesses and entrepreneurs often do not have the resources to take and sustain complex legal action when their intellectual property is infringed upon. That’s where Morgan & Morgan steps in.
Investor Fraud
Investor fraud can create devastating financial losses for businesses. When fraud does occur, many will often find themselves at the beginning of a long and uphill process of filing a claim, determining fault, and handling the emotion behind the risk of reporting those fraudulent parties while trying to recover from their businesses financial losses. At Morgan and Morgan, our business litigation attorneys have the expertise and experience to help you prosecute those fraudulent parties to ensure your financial recovery.
Jail Injury
Jail injuries are traumatizing for those victims involved and violates their constitutional right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment. When a person is in custody, they retain the right to be free from excessive force and sexual assault, and to receive treatment for their serious medical needs. In the event that these rights are violated, many individuals may believe that there can be no justice to be found for themselves or a loved one. With Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are ready to help you get the full justice you deserve for your unfair treatment.
Jail Sexual Assault
Jail sexual assault is traumatizing for those victims involved and is a crime that violates their constitutional right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment. When a person is in custody, they retain the right to be free from excessive force and sexual assault, and to receive treatment for their serious medical needs. In the event that these rights are violated, many individuals may believe that there can be no justice to be found for themselves or a loved one. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are prepared to help you get the full justice you deserve for your unconstitutional treatment.
Jet-Ski Accidents
Jet ski’s, while great for some outdoor recreation, are significantly dangerous for even the most experienced rider. You can’t control the open water, and an unexpected wave or jump can launch you from the watercraft and send you flying, sometimes resulting in serious injuries. If you sustained an injury in an accident like this, it’s best to seek medical attention to determine if there’s any underlying damage, but this can be very expensive. Medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses can quickly pile up, making the compensation from your insurance payout that much more important. However, it can be difficult to know how much your case is truly worth without a legal background, so it’s recommended to team up with a trusted attorney. Our jet-ski accident attorneys have a proven track record of recovering full and fair compensation in cases just like yours, making us an undeniable asset during a traumatic period of your life.
Labor & Employment
Morgan & Morgan handles the most employment litigation cases in the entire country, including those involving wage theft, discrimination and harassment, employee misclassification, denial of leave, defamation of character, and more.
Ladder Accidents & Injuries
If you rely on ladders to perform your occupational tasks, you likely understand how dangerous they are, as one wrong step could land you in the hospital. Improperly secured ladders or faulty equipment can all result in an on-the-job injury, leaving you with significant medical bills and lost wages that make it difficult to pay off your other expenses. If you become injured in a ladder accident, you’ll want to immediately notify your employer so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will act unethically with their injured employee’s workers’ compensation claims to avoid having to pay for the damage. This is unfair to you, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to.
Ladder Falls, Slips, & Injuries
Whether the fall occurred at work or in your backyard, slipping from a ladder can result in a very painful injury. If you’re lucky enough to be able to walk away from the fall under your own power, you should still seek medical attention to determine if there’s any underlying damage. More serious injuries almost always require medical treatment, and as we all know, that treatment is very expensive. Your insurance claim will help mitigate some of that financial damage, but the process of filing your claim is often difficult if you don’t have a legal background. By teaming up with one of our experienced ladder fall attorneys, you can navigate through the process with ease and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Lead Poisoning
Citizen suits can help you seek justice when the environmental safety of your home has come into question or has been violated in some manner. However, taking on those major corporations on your own can oftentimes seem impossible. Going alone can often leave you feeling frustrated and discouraged when attempting to navigate the complicated process of creating a lawsuit against major companies. Which is why, when it is essential to have a law firm with the best resources to help you fight back against the government body or corporation.
Legal Malpractice
Morgan & Morgan’s Business Trial Group regularly represents businesses and individuals that have been harmed by legal malpractice and other professionals’ negligence. Our team of experienced attorneys has successfully represented clients against attorneys, accountants, insurance agents, and other professionals who failed to adhere to the accepted standards of care in their respective professions.
Legionnaires’ Disease
Legionnaires’ disease, a form of pneumonia, is caused by breathing in a mist containing legionella bacteria. Air conditioning units, cooling towers, grocery store mist machines, and hot tubs can all produce this toxic mist, and those who breathe it in commonly start developing symptoms within ten days of their exposure. Unfortunately, there’s no vaccine for this condition, and those who develop it will have to deal with severe respiratory issues that can be life-threatening in some cases. You didn’t expose yourself to the bacteria on purpose, and by teaming up with one of our experienced legionnaires’ disease attorneys, you can fight to hold the negligent party accountable. Not only that, but our attorneys have a proven track record of recovering full compensation for our clients in situations much like yours, making us an undeniable asset in your case.
Lyft Accidents

Injuries sustained offshore or aboard a vessel can be severe and place tremendous emotional and financial burdens on the injured party and their family.
Mass Shooting
Unfortunately, mass shootings are becoming increasingly more common in our modern society. You can take precautions to protect yourself from a situation with an armed gunman, but in some cases, there’s not much you can do. If you’re injured during a mass shooting event, you understand how traumatic it can be, as the combination of physical, mental, and emotional damage can compound to create a very difficult situation to come back from. While compensation can’t take back the actions of the gunman, it can help you financially recover from your injuries and receive the treatment you need to return to a normal life. However, this can be difficult to do on your own, but our mass shooting attorneys have the experience, resources, and knowledge to help you pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.

Medical Malpractice – Cancer Misdiagnosis
For cancer patients, early diagnosis and treatment are associated with significantly better outcomes. When cancer is incorrectly diagnosed or misclassified, the mistake could prove to be fatal. At the very least, it could lead to higher medical bills and a reduced quality of life. According to Johns Hopkins, 1 in 71 cancer cases are misdiagnosed, while 1 in 5 cancers are misclassified. That’s far too many for any disease, and especially for a deadly disease that has better treatment protocols than ever before. If your doctor did not properly diagnose your cancer, you owe it to yourself to speak with an attorney about your legal options. The money from a successful cancer misdiagnosis lawsuit can be used to pay for medical treatment, lost wages, physical and emotional pain and suffering, and more. Morgan & Morgan, America’s largest injury law firm, is here for you and your family during this stressful time.
Medical Malpractice – Chiropractor Malpractice
More than 15 million American adults experience chronic or persistent back pain. For relief of that pain, they may turn to the services of a chiropractor. Although chiropractic results are not guaranteed, when a chiropractor’s adjustments cause further medical problems, such as a herniated disc, broken ribs, neck or nerve damage, or sciatic pain, it may be because of substandard treatment. A chiropractor medical malpractice lawsuit can provide compensation to cover medical bills, lost work time, physical pain, mental anguish, and other losses. It’s not up to you to decide whether malpractice occurred. Leave that up to us. We’re America’s largest injury law firm, with more than 800 lawyers and $10 billion in recoveries. Find out why Morgan & Morgan is trusted by millions during a free consultation with our chiropractor malpractice lawyers.
Medical Malpractice – Dental Malpractice
Many people have negative associations with the dentist due to prior traumatic experiences at a dental office. The invasiveness of a routine root canal or a cavity filling is one thing. Substandard dental treatment is something else entirely. If the dentist did not follow established medical procedures, and you were injured, dental malpractice could have occurred. Don’t expect the dentist to admit their mistake. You may need help from an attorney to correct the situation. During a free consultation, Morgan & Morgan’s dental malpractice attorneys will listen to your concerns and advise you of the next steps to take. If warranted, we’ll begin the process of investigating your claim, gathering evidence, and seeking compensation on your behalf.

Our cosmetic surgery malpractice attorneys are available 24/7 to review your claim. Find out why we are trusted by millions during a free case review.
Medical Monitoring
Medical monitoring can mean the difference between life or death. After exposure to toxic emissions, some individuals may not develop severe health issues until later on, meaning those who were exposed may need to frequent medical screening, and often it can be a long and difficult process to file a claim with your insurance company to help you receive the monitoring you vitally need. At Morgan & Morgan, our toxic and environmental attorneys help victims hold those polluters accountable and communities who have been exposed to toxic emissions eligible for screenings, as well as other medical tests.
Mesothelioma
We represent mesothelioma victims and their families, helping them recover compensation from the asbestos companies responsible for their illness, and making sure they get needed medical care and other assistance.
Mesothelioma – Asbestos
Asbestos was widely used throughout much of the 20th century. It was mined on an industrial scale and added to thousands of products. Despite the fact that it is a known human carcinogen, asbestos is not banned in the United States. Thousands of people each year are diagnosed with asbestos cancers such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. The asbestos industry, which concealed the health risks of its products for decades, is now paying the price for its reckless conduct. Billions of dollars have been paid to asbestos victims. If you were diagnosed with lung cancer, mesothelioma, or asbestosis, and can document your occupational exposure to asbestos, you may automatically qualify for compensation. The asbestos lawyers at Morgan & Morgan have recovered millions for victims nationwide. Learn how we can help during a free case review.
Mesothelioma – Lung Cancer
Exposure to asbestos is associated with lung cancer and pleural mesothelioma, a type of cancer that grows in the pleura—a thin lining of tissue on the lungs and chest cavity. Asbestos was used widely in the first half of the 20th century. Asbestos companies knew their products were sickening workers, but they did nothing to protect them. Inhaled asbestos fibers can lodge in the lungs and cause lung cancer. There is no safe level of asbestos exposure. Asbestos lung cancer may take 10 -15 year or more to develop. By the time it is diagnosed, treatment options may be limited. To get the best treatment, you may need to explore your legal options. Compensation is available from asbestos companies, but accessing these funds is difficult. Morgan & Morgan can help. Our lawyers have recovered millions of dollars for hundreds of asbestos victims across the country.
Mesothelioma – Mesothelioma Cancer
Mesothelioma is a deadly and incurable form of cancer that is caused by exposure to asbestos. The disease, which has a long latency period of 10 – 50 years, affects the cells that line the lung, abdomen, and heart. Pleural mesothelioma, or mesothelioma of the lung’s linings, is by far the most common form. Asbestos companies have paid billions of dollars to compensate workers who developed mesothelioma. If you can prove that you worked at certain known asbestos job sites, you might automatically qualify for money set aside in asbestos trust funds. You might also quality for a mesothelioma asbestos lawsuit. Taking on the asbestos industry requires a big law firm. Morgan & Morgan, the nation’s largest injury law firm, has recovered millions of dollars for mesothelioma victims across the country.
Mistreatment of a Corpse
We assume that the individuals who handle the remains of our loved ones will act ethically, but this isn’t always the case. Unethical and negligent individuals can mistreat deceased individuals while under their care, which is especially unsettling to the families of the deceased. Everyone deserves respect, even when they’ve passed. If you believe that an organization or individual has mistreated the remains of your loved one, you can take legal action against them to pursue compensation. However, this is often complicated, and you might not know the best way to hold the negligent party accountable for their actions. By teaming up with one of our experienced corpse mistreatment attorneys, you can navigate the legal process of the situation with ease and hold the abuser accountable for their heinous crime.
Motel and Hotel Accidents
Motel and hotel owners have a responsibility to keep their property safe for all visitors. If they act negligently, hazardous zones can appear on the property and pose a risk of injury for anyone passing through the area. This is an accident waiting to happen, and if you sustain an injury on hotel or motel property, the owner is liable for the damage because they failed to repair the dangerous areas. However, it can be complicated to hold them accountable, but our experienced hotel and motel accident attorneys can help guide you towards the best possible outcome for your case. When you need a firm to advocate for the rights that protect you, you’ll never regret choosing Morgan & Morgan to handle your hotel/motel accident case.
Motorcycle Accidents
Insurance regulations and dishonest insurance carriers can complicate the process of recovering compensation for injured motorcyclists. Therefore, it is important for injured riders, or loved ones acting on their behalf, to retain an attorney who has experience handling these types of claims. Our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan have a successful history of handling claims against insurance companies and, for one rider, a $47,500,000 verdict for injuries sustained in a head-on collision.
Motorcycle Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
Motorcycle’s offer little to no protections to the rider, which is why most accidents often result in painful injuries. Whether the rider impacts with another vehicle or slides down the road after a fall, the bodily injury will likely require medical attention. Unfortunately, that treatment is expensive, and the combination of all your expenses can become more stressful than the injury itself. On top of it all, you’ll have to handle filing your insurance claim, and that can prove to be difficult if you have no prior experience. You want to recover from your wreck as quickly as possible, and by teaming up with one of our experienced motorcycle accident attorneys, they can help you navigate the legal aspect of your crash so you can return to your normal life.
Negligent Security
Whether they handle access control or are on camera duty, security officers and staff have a responsibility to protect the occupants of the facility they’re guarding. In some cases, the individuals who are supposed to protect us act negligently and leave us at risk for injury. If you were harmed by the negligence of a security professional, you’re likely frustrated with their carelessness and stressed with the situation you’re in. You can attempt to hold them accountable on your own, but without any prior legal experience, that can prove to be a difficult task. However, by teaming up with one of our experienced negligent security attorneys, you can hold the at-fault party accountable for their negligence and pursue compensation for the hardship you’ve endured.
Nightclub Shooting
Nightclubs are usually loud and crowded with people, making them an easy target for any would-be gunman. Unfortunately, our modern society forces us to think about the possibility of a shooting, as they’re happening more and more frequently. If you become a victim of one of these tragic events, there’s a long road to recovery ahead of you. Between the expense of your medical treatment and the significant mental anguish that’s associated with a shooting, you’ll have a lot on your plate, but an attorney can help you mitigate some of that damage. By teaming up with one of our experienced nightclub shooting attorneys, you can navigate through the legal aspects of your injury and finally get the closure you need to get back to a normal life.
Nursing Home Abuse
At Morgan & Morgan, our nursing home abuse attorneys have decades of experience handling elder abuse lawsuits and have the resources needed to help nursing home residents and families with their personal injury claims.
Oil Rig and Oil Field Accidents
Oil rig and oil field workers are constantly surrounded by bulky equipment and harmful chemicals, making it a much more dangerous occupation than most. An unsuspecting employee can quickly find themselves in harm’s way if they’re not paying attention to their surroundings, which can send them home with a painful injury. If you become injured while working on an oil rig or in an oil field, you should immediately notify you’re employer so they can begin filing your workers’ compensation claim. However, a negligent employer can refuse to file your claim, forcing you to pay out-of-pocket for an accident you didn’t cause. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can protect your rightful compensation from a negligent third party and recover from your situation properly.
Outdoor Dining Auto Accidents During Covid-19
The Covid-19 pandemic changed many facets of our way of life, one of them being how we enjoy visiting our local restaurants. Some restaurants chose to move their dining outdoors to serve customers under the new safety guidelines, but this change resulted in some restaurants creating makeshift buildings in the street outside their building to maximize the total customers they could serve at once. The street is already dangerous to both drivers and pedestrians, but the new dining practices made them even more unsafe, as individuals have been injured after a vehicle collided with outdoor dining establishments. Although you decided to dine at that restaurant, you didn’t choose to become injured, and you shouldn’t have to endure the expense of the restaurant owner’s attempt to create more business. By teaming up with Morgan & Morgan, you can pursue compensation that accurately reflects the severity of your situation and get the closure you need to get back to your normal life.
Overtime/Wage & Hour
We help workers who were wrongly denied overtime, underpaid or forced to work off-the-clock sue their employers and recover compensation for lost wages. Our attorneys are dedicated to fighting for those who weren’t paid properly and are not afraid to take their cases to court to get their clients the money they deserve.
PFAS Contamination
PFAS Contamination can cause life-altering injuries. Individuals who have been exposed to PFAS through contamination often experience life-altering side effects like cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, thyroid damage, high cholesterol, and many more. Unfortunately, in many cases of PFAS, the injuries are just the beginning of what might be a long and tiring journey of filing an insurance claim and determining who is at fault. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys will investigate your claim and fight for your full and fair compensation.
Pedestrian Accidents
No one starts their day thinking that they’ll be involved in a pedestrian accident, but regardless of how careful you are, there’s always a chance. Over 6,000 people were killed in pedestrian accidents in 2020, and even more individuals found themselves in the hospital with painful injuries. These accidents are serious, and if you become a victim, you should seek medical attention to determine the extent of the damage. Unfortunately, that treatment isn’t cheap, and you can potentially find yourself in significant debt. You didn’t cause the accident, so why should you have to endure the expense? By teaming up with one of our experienced pedestrian accident attorneys, you can navigate through the legal aspect of your accident and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.

Petroleum
Petroleum spills can cause widespread and long-lasting damage. Most of these oil spills result from accidents at wells or on the pipelines, trains, ships, and trucks transporting oil from wells to refineries. When these significant spills cause severe damage to ecosystems, wildlife, property values, and human health, fighting back against major oil companies can be a daunting task when attempting to find footing after your life has been torn apart by a spill. A Morgan & Morgan, we have the resources to help you take on big oil and fight for the planet.
Pharmaceutical & FDA Fraud
Pharmaceutical & FDA Fraud can be an intimidating experience to navigate since the government does not have a group of medical professionals to help regulate medical practices. Companies will often claim products are FDA approved, which can cause severe or even life-threatening injuries. Whistleblowers who come forward in Pharmaceutical & FDA fraud cases to help those victims can often find themselves at the beginning of a long and challenging process. At Morgan & Morgan, our experienced whistleblower attorneys know how to minimize the risks and maximize opportunities to develop viable cases.
Plane Crashes, Accidents, & Wrecks
While it might be frightening to think about, pilots can make mistakes too. A plane crash almost always results in major injuries for everyone involved, and if the crash occurs in a populated area, the property damage can also be significant. Once you’ve removed yourself from the accident scene and have received medical treatment, you’ll want to file an insurance claim with your provider to mitigate the financial strain of the wreck. However, this can be difficult if you don’t have experience, and you might not know which steps you need to take in order to receive your rightful compensation. By teaming up with our experienced plane crash attorneys, you can navigate through the legal process of your plane crash and return to the life you lived before it occurred.
Police Brutality
Police brutality is a crime and a violation of your civil rights. A few examples of police brutality include racial profiling, assault, intimidation, threats of violence, verbal abuse, excessive or unnecessary force, and forced or coerced confessions. Many victims of police brutality can suffer serious injuries, like bruised body parts, psychological injuries, or in some cases, death. Seeking justice from the justice system can often be a difficult and uphill battle, leaving many feeling defeated before they’ve even begun the fight. With Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are ready to help you get the full justice you deserve for your unfair treatment.
Police Dog Injury
Police Dog injuries are often caused just like any other tool that is used by law enforcement. However, police dogs can be misused and cause severe and unnecessary harm. Injuries can include but are not limited to deep lacerations from the dog’s razor-sharp teeth, broken bones caused by being dragged or tackled by the dog, muscular and or internal injuries from being crushed by the dog’s jaw, or torn by their teeth. Police dog injuries can also cause serious infections requiring long-term medical treatment and permanent scarring. In these cases, victims who are pursuing compensation via legal action can find that it can be more complicated to seek justice than it would be against a regular dog owner. However, with proper legal representation, justice can be obtainable.
Police Shooting
Police shootings, in some instances, falls under the category of police brutality or the unnecessary force of an office used on a victim. In many cases, victims after a police shooting can often be left with severe injuries or even lose their lives. Suing a law enforcement officer can be much more complicated than suing a private individual or a business. Most states have specific laws that provide immunity to public employees, such as police officers. However, when working with an experienced attorney, they can help you prove that the law enforcement officer had indeed acted in bad faith or used excessive force or violence, in which case immunity may not apply.
Probate, Trust and Estates
Probate, trust, and estates can be tricky areas to navigate. Whether a loved one has passed away or you are next in line to inherit someone’s assets, rarely does it go smoothly when the risk of missing paperwork, lack of a will, a challenge to the will’s validity or meaning, creditor claims, or discovering any outstanding taxes and debts. Handling these delicate matters can be a long and challenging journey for all of those involved. This is why having the right attorneys on your case to help is critical. See why millions have trusted Morgan & Morgan.
Product Liability
At Morgan & Morgan, our product liability attorneys are well-versed in the laws that protect consumers against the harm posed by defective products. When a consumer sustains an injury due to a defective product, a number of parties can be held liable for releasing a product that they knew or should have known posed a risk to users.
Professional Malpractice
Professional malpractice can have far-reaching consequences. These professionals are bound by the standards of conduct and are required to perform according to those standards. However, in some cases, when professionals step outside those boundaries, damages can occur, and victims will find themselves headed on an uphill battle after filing a lawsuit. In many cases, it is imperative to have an attorney on your side with the expertise and experience to help you prosecute those who have harmed you. That’s where we can help.
Punch Press Malfunction Accidents & Injuries
All equipment can be dangerous if it wasn’t maintained properly, and punch presses are no different. Punch press equipment is designed to place holes in raw materials for construction purposes, but a malfunction can cause the equipment to lose control and injure the operator. If you were injured in this manner, you’ll want to seek medical attention and notify your employer of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will actively try to avoid filing the claim of their injured employees so they don’t have to pay for the damage, which is unacceptable when you’re trying to recover and return to your everyday life. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation that you’re entitled to.

Contact us today to get started.
Run Over by Operating Equipment
Construction sites and other dynamic workplaces contain operating equipment that constantly moves throughout the area. Unsuspecting workers can easily become injured by this equipment, as the size and bulkiness make it difficult for the operator to see their immediate surroundings. If you become injured in this manner, you’ll want to notify your supervisor of the incident immediately so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. In some cases, unethical employers will actively attempt to avoid filing their injured worker’s claim so they won’t have to face the financial consequences. This is unacceptable, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Salon Injury
You went to the salon for a fresh, new look, but instead, you were left with a painful injury.

Saw and Cutting Blade Accidents
One wrong move while using saws or cutting blades can land you in the hospital, even if you’re highly trained in using the equipment. If you become injured by a saw or cutting blade, you’ll want to seek medical treatment and immediately notify your employer of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will actively prevent their injured employees from receiving their compensation, which is especially unacceptable given that there are laws that prohibit this kind of behavior. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around a negligent employer and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to, as well as punitive damages for the hardship you’ve endured at the hands of your employer.
Scaffold Accidents & Injuries
Those who work in the construction industry commonly have to traverse scaffold equipment to perform their occupational tasks. In most cases, the scaffolds are at high altitudes, and one wrong step can send an unsuspecting worker to the hospital with a painful injury. If you become injured after falling from scaffolding, you’ll want to inform your employer immediately so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, an unethical employer can actively attempt to prevent you from receiving the compensation you’re entitled to. This is unfair to you, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Scooter Fires
A day of outdoor fun can quickly take a turn for the worse after a scooter fire. While uncommon, motorized scooters can catch fire and cause harm to the rider, often resulting in serious burn injuries. A burn injury is one of the most unpleasant to sustain, as the pain is only amplified by the lengthy recovery time. Once you’ve received medical attention, you’ll likely be burdened by the expenses of your accident. Medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses can seriously complicate your recovery, which is especially unacceptable when you didn’t cause the fire. You’ll want to file an insurance claim, but this can prove to be difficult if you have no prior experience. By teaming up with our experienced scooter fire attorneys, you can file your claim with ease and ensure that your compensation accurately reflects the damage you’ve sustained.

Shareholder & Partnership Disputes
Shareholder and partnership disputes can happen at any point in the life of a business, from disputes as early as the formation of the company to disagreements over its dissolution. When partners or shareholders are unable to come to a negotiated or mediated settlement, they may wish to proceed to litigation. When litigating a dispute between partners or shareholders, it requires a careful and measured approach. With emotions that may run high during these complicated times within a business, coming to a solution that allows everyone to have peace of mind can be challenging. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have years of experience handling cases just like these.
Shareholder Derivatives
Shareholder derivatives lawsuits are typically filed by an investor or group of investors on behalf of the corporation to help compel the board of directors to fix or prevent harm from coming to the company and, ultimately, those who have invested in it.

However, filing these lawsuits can often be tricky, given the different forms of misconduct that needs to be reported. Which is why at Morgan & morgan our attorneys are highly skilled in shareholder derivatives.

Slip and Fall Injuries
Whether you slipped on a wet floor in a grocery store or tripped in your workplace, a slip and fall accident has the potential to cause major damage. Major injuries will almost always require medical treatment, but you should also seek medical attention for minor slip and fall injuries to determine if there’s any underlying damage. In some cases, your injury will prevent you from earning a paycheck, and that can cause you stress when it’s time to pay off your medical bills and other expenses. You’ll want to file a claim with your insurance provider, but this involves legal jargon that’s difficult to decipher without a legal background. By teaming up with one of our experienced Slip and Fall attorneys, you can file your claim with ease and pursue the compensation you’re rightfully entitled to.

The attorneys at Morgan & Morgan understand the impact a denied Social Security disability claim can have on an individual and their family, especially when these benefits are the applicant’s main source of income. More often than not, applications for Social Security disability are initially denied; however, an initial denial does not necessarily mean that the applicant is not entitled to benefits.
Soil Contamination
Soil contamination can be a life-altering experience. When companies improperly discard their toxic waste, it can seep into the soil of the neighboring area and can cause harmful and even life-threatening injuries to those who are exposed to it. Those who are exposed to the harmful substances rarely go without experiencing some form of lasting effect. Oftentimes, the exposure itself is merely the start of what can be an incredibly long and frustrating journey of filing an insurance claim, determining fault, and getting the much-needed closure to move on with their lives. That’s where we can help.
Solvent Exposure
Solvent exposure can lead to a long list of health hazards including, nervous system toxicity, reproductive damage, liver and kidney damage, respiratory impairment, irreversible brain dysfunction, visual impairment, cancer, and can even lead to death. Unfortunately, exposure to the toxic solvents can merely be the start of what can be an incredibly long and challenging journey to filing an insurance claim, determining fault, and getting the much-needed closure to move on with their lives. That’s where our team of attorneys can help you.
Spinal Cord Injuries
Whether you slipped and fell in a grocery store or were hit by a falling object at work, a spinal injury has the potential to change your life forever. Spinal cord injuries are some of the most severe a person can sustain, as the spinal cord controls much of your bodily functions. In severe cases, the victim of a spinal cord injury can become paralyzed from the impact, which will require constant therapy and treatment in the future. No one should have to pay for an accident they didn’t cause, but when you team up with an experienced spinal cord injury attorney, you won’t have to. Our spinal cord injury attorneys have a proven track record of recovering full and fair compensation payouts in cases just like yours, and they’re eager to help you hold the negligent party accountable for their mistake.
Swimming Pool Accidents
Swimming pools pose a significant risk to all household members, as one wrong step can land you in the hospital or potentially worse. In more serious cases, a swimming pool accident can result in wrongful death, which creates a complicated legal situation of determining fault, seeking compensation, and advocating for the severity of your situation. If you or a loved one sustained an injury as a result of a swimming pool accident, you’ll want to seek medical attention to determine the extent of your injuries. However, this is often expensive, but an attorney can help you file an insurance claim to offset the financial strain. Our experienced swimming pool accident attorneys have seen your situation before, and they can use their knowledge and expertise to guide you towards the best possible outcome for your case.
T-Mobile Data breach
The T-Mobile Data Breach left millions exposed. When your private information is leaked to the public, malicious individuals can potentially use it to commit fraud in your name. Navigating the process of recovering your data, holding those accountable, and dealing with the potential life-long effects of your personal information being exposed to future attacks can be a long and challenging road. At Morgan & Morgan, our mass arbitration attorneys will help you navigate through the complicated process and hold T-Mobile accountable for its negligence.
Tesla Fires
Tesla revolutionized the auto industry, but their innovation also comes with some setbacks. In some cases, the electric motors of these vehicles can catch fire and cause harm to the occupants, resulting in serious burns and other injuries. No one should have to fear that their car will spontaneously catch fire, but unfortunately, that’s the case for some Tesla customers. If you were injured in a situation like this, it’s best to seek medical attention to determine the extent of your injuries and get started on your recovery. Unfortunately, that medical treatment isn’t free, and you’ll have to handle the financial strain of your expenses on top of your physical injuries. Without proper compensation, you’ll have to endure the expense of your accident on your own. However, if you team up with our experienced Tesla Fire attorneys, they can help you file your insurance claim and advocate for the full extent of your damage. Contact us today!
Tip Pooling
Tip pooling is not illegal in the United States; however, under no circumstances can an employer mandate tipped employees to share their tips with a manager, supervisor, owner, or “the house.” When those managers or ownership participate in the tip pool, it likely means that everyone who was required to pay into the unlawful tip share is owed significant damages. In many cases, discovering wage theft can be a long and difficult process of filing a claim, establishing fault, and, most importantly, recovering your lost wages. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have decades of experience handling wage theft claims.
Toe Amputation Injuries
Falling materials and moving operating equipment can cause a variety of injuries, including some that will require toe amputations. A toe amputation changes your life forever and can make it difficult to earn a paycheck, perform basic tasks, and live the life you did before the injury. If you sustained an injury like this, you’ll want to notify your supervisor of the situation immediately so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. Employers are required to submit these claims in a timely manner, and if they fail to do so, you can take legal action against them. However, this is often complicated without a legal background, and it can be difficult to advocate for the severity of your situation on your own. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around a negligent employer and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to. Contact us today to get started.
Toxic Emissions
Toxic Emissions can severely damage the quality of life for you and your loved ones. In many communities, people who are exposed to harmful toxic emissions from power plants, cars, and other forms of transportation rarely leave without some form of life-altering injuries or effects. In some cases, the health effects are only the beginning of what could be a long and difficult process of filing an insurance claim, establishing fault, and getting closure they need to move forward with their life. That’s where Morgan & Morgan can help.
Train Accident
Train Wrecks and Railroad Accidents
Train operators are human too, and sometimes, they make mistakes. A train accident can cause widespread damage to both people and property in an instant, often leaving the victims to pick up the pieces on their own. Whether you walked away from the crash with minor scrapes and bruises or had to be transported to a hospital, it’s always a good idea to seek medical attention to determine if the damage is worse than it looks. Unfortunately, that treatment isn’t free, and you’ll have to handle the financial strain on top of your physical recovery. Without proper compensation, your recovery can be extended significantly, which isn’t fair when the wreck wasn’t your fault. By teaming up with our train wreck attorneys, you can fight for your full compensation amount and recover from your train accident in a timely manner.
Truck Accidents
If you or a loved one are involved in an accident with a truck, retaining the services of an attorney becomes vital. Because truck drivers are often insured in the millions and more than one party can be held vicariously responsible for a driver’s negligence, having a lawyer at your side as soon as possible will help to ensure your case is handled in the most professional manner. Identifying all the different lines of insurance is difficult in trucking accidents as the truck and trailer are often insured by different companies, with either or both possibly being guilty of negligence.
Truck Accidents, Crashes, & Wrecks
Large trucks dominate the road they drive on, making them significantly dangerous to all other drivers on the road. When a large truck gets into an accident, the damage is much more significant than a regular car crash due to the size and weight of the vehicle. Even minor accidents are potentially serious when a truck is involved, and you’ll need to file an insurance claim to avoid having to pay for an accident you didn’t cause. However, this process can be complicated, and filing your insurance claim, determining fault, and moving on from your accident can prove to be difficult list of duties to do on your own. But there’s hope, as our experienced truck accident lawyers can guide you through the process and towards the best possible outcome for your truck accident.
Truck Crash
Uber & Lyft Accidents
You needed a ride, but where did you end up? Uber and Lyft drivers are humans too, and they can make mistakes on the road that result in an accident. Much like a traditional car accident, you should seek medical attention to determine the extent of your injuries. However, this treatment is often expensive, and the financial strain can seriously complicate your recovery. You’ll want to file an insurance claim to help mitigate that financial damage, but this is often complicated without a legal background. Fault is also difficult to determine in these cases because you weren’t operating the vehicle, but our experienced Uber/Lyft accident attorneys have the experience, knowledge, and resources to guide you towards the best possible outcome for your case. Not only that, but they’ll make sure your compensation accurately reflects the severity of your situation and prevent a third party from devaluing your case. Contact us today!
Unpaid Overtime
Unpaid overtime often leaves workers feeling used, and robbed. When workers have been denied pay for working overtime, it can often feel like a daunting and complicated task to navigate the overtime laws in their state in order to fight to recover the earnings they rightfully deserve. With the right attorneys, those employees can have the best possibility to ensure they are able to recover their lost wages.
Veteran Benefits Denied
Veteran Benefits are critical for those men and women who have served the United States who have come home in need of assistance. However, many veterans with disabilities often find that obtaining benefits can be a long, complicated and frustrating process that usually involves multiple appeals because of the tricky process of filing a claim with the Veterans’ Benefits Administrations. At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys have handled countless claims with the VA on behalf of the brave men and women who served this country, including disability benefits, survivor benefits, and educational benefits claims.
Veterans’ Benefits
At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys are dedicated to helping veterans and their loved ones recover the benefits they deserve. Having handled a countless number of veterans benefits claims, we understand that obtaining benefits is a complicated process that often involves multiple appeals. Our firm handles many types of claims for veterans benefits, including disability benefits, survivor benefits, vocational rehabilitation and employment benefits, educational benefits, life insurance, health care; home loans; and compensation and pension.
Welding Accidents & Injuries
Welders rely on equipment to keep them safe while they perform their occupational tasks, but in some cases, that equipment can fail and cause them to sustain a painful injury. Whether it’s a severe burn or a loss of eyesight, you should notify your employer of the incident so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will fail to submit your claim in a timely manner, or they won’t file it at all. This can force you to pay for the accident out of your own pocket, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet.
Window Washer Accidents
Window washers perform their occupational tasks at great altitudes, which is as dangerous as it is frightening. One wrong move or an equipment failure can send an unsuspecting worker crashing to earth, leaving them with painful and potentially life-threatening injuries. If you become injured in this manner, you’ll want to seek medical treatment for your injuries and notify your supervisor so they can begin the workers’ compensation process. However, some employers will act unethically and attempt to avoid paying their injured workers the compensation they deserve. This can force you to pay for the accident out-of-pocket, but by teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation that you’re entitled to. Contact us today to get started!
Work Injuries
An injury can occur in any workplace environment, regardless of the industry or type of work. If your injury is severe, you should seek medical treatment immediately, but even minor injuries should be examined to determine if there are any underlying issues. Unfortunately, this treatment is expensive, and you can potentially sustain financial damage that can extend your recovery years into the future. You’ll want to inform your supervisor of your injury so they can begin the workers’ compensation process, but in some cases, an employer will act negligently with your claim to avoid paying you what you deserve. By teaming up with one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys, you can navigate around your unethical employer and pursue the compensation you need to get back on your feet. Contact us today!
Workers’ Compensation
Our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan help workers who were injured on the job and were denied their workers comp claims. Using our experience advocating for workers, we help them navigate the process of trying to recover the money they might rightfully be owed.
Workplace Accident
Workplace Discrimination
Employment policies or practices applicable to all employees may be illegal if they have “a negative impact on the employment of people of a particular class and is not job-related and necessary to the operation of the business.” Do you believe that you may have been discriminated against in the workplace? If so, you may be entitled to compensation under federal and state laws.
Workplace Injury
Wrongful Death
The loss of a loved one is a tragic period in anyone’s life, but the pain is only worsened if the death was caused by the negligence of a third party. If your loved one’s death was wrongful, you can take legal action against the negligent party and pursue compensation that reflects the severity of the damage they caused. Although the compensation from your settlement can’t bring back your loved one, it can help you offset the financial strain of their passing, which can also help you recover properly and move on from the experience. However, this is often difficult to do without a legal background, and it’s recommended to retain an experienced wrongful death attorney to help you through the process. Our wrongful death attorneys have years of experience with cases just like yours, and they can use their resources, knowledge, and expertise to ensure that you’re able to recover from the passing of your loved one in a timely manner.
Wrongful Death Claims
Wrongful Imprisonment/Arrest
Wrongful imprisonment/arrests can have grave lifelong repercussions on those involved. Wrongful imprisonment can range from willful or intentional detention to believed detention without consent or unlawful detention. However, while you attempt to move forward with a false imprisonment lawsuit, more likely than not, the opposing counsel in your case will go to great lengths to prove there was voluntary consent. They can claim shopkeepers’ rights or citizen’s arrest as a defense against your false imprisonment claim, which is why it is critical to utilize the knowledge and experience of a Wrongful Imprisonment Lawyer for your case.

SAL T.
Morgan & Morgan must be the worst law firm I have ever encountered. They talk about how hiring the right law firm is critical to the success of winning a case. Well, this law firm is not it and far from it. We hired this law firm to represent us, and you think they would be there to support you and answer all your questions, wrong? It has been a nightmare that they never call back. I have been trying to contact our attorney for a week and have had no response. Second, I even called their main number, and the customer service representative tried calling the attorney and no luck. Every day I follow up with them, and still no response from anyone. Not even there, the so-called client team nor the internal document submittal. The customer service representative even sent the case manager/ attorney on the case a message to call us back, and still nothing. So if you value your time and want a firm that will keep you up to date and answer their phone calls, this is not the firm you want to hire. You are better off representing yourself or hiring another law firm that’s not Morgan & Morgan

Had a great experience with their firm after my accident. I was hesitant of calling them after reading some reviews here but they were the easiest to reach. I was lucky enough to have Patrick Spoonhour to manage my case. The insurance company tried to play games but he knew I needed help they promised and did not fulfill and was determined to stand with all the way until we won. Thank you Patrick

This is a terrible and scary experience. Communication is poor, I have never formally met or spoken to my “attorney,” I feel I won’t get anything back from my case, and I’m receiving so many unprofessional emails about weed and frivolous things. I regret taking my case here. It’s going on 2 years and I have nothing but anxiety. The good reviews must be their colleagues.

I called them to seek assistance for a recent incident that occured and was heavily disappointed by the experience. I was told right up that they cannot help me and the person seemed absolutely non-sympathetic. I understand that it is within their right, but it did not seem like they cared. If you are looking for a group that are looking out for your interests, I cannot recommend them based on my experience.

Morgan & Morgan law firm is a joke! I am a cancer survivor and pulmonary disease survivor and I reached out to them twice and got absolutely nothing.They say for the people, that’s a lie. John Morgan will only take your case if it’s a for sure win. I can’t even stand to see their commercials anymore cuz it’s all lies. Very disappointing.

I fell for their television advertising. If they cannnot make any money off of your case, they will not take your case. They do not care if you’re hurt or if you need legal assistance. Bottom line its all about money for this lawfirm. I can’t wait to see what cheesy remark the lawfirm puts on my one star review. Go elsewhere.

My experience with Morgan & Morgan thus far has been excellent. Jason Ingber and the entire team at Morgan & Morgan are easy to work with, very quick to answer any questions I have had and always get back to me quickly with any/all information. I would recommend them to anyone seeking legal counsel.
