• Unsafe premises incidents – When a property owner or manager fails to keep their premises safe, visitors may sustain severe injuries. At Sam & Ash Injury Law, we believe you deserve What’s Right. That means getting compensated for injuries that you sustained through no fault of your own.
• Dangerous product injuries – Manufacturers have a legal responsibility to ensure their products are safe when used as intended and to warn of any foreseeable risks of using the product. When manufacturers put products with unknown side effects on the market, innocent consumers can get hurt. If you have been injured by a defective product or dangerous prescription drug, Sam & Ash Injury Law can help you demand fair compensation.
• Dog bite injuries – Thousands of people suffer dog bite injuries every year. If you were bitten by a dog in Henderson that had a history of biting people, then the dog owner may be held financially liable for your injuries. We understand why you might be reluctant to file a claim against a friend. But if you sustained serious injuries, you may have thousands of dollars of medical bills. You should not have to bear those unexpected costs if a dog owner’s negligence caused the dog bite incident. In most cases, the pet owner’s homeowner’s insurance or renter’s insurance pays compensation for dog bites.
