• Personal Injury

  Personal Injury is a blanket term used by attorneys and the public in general. It covers any physical injury an individual may suffer. Every injury case is unique and has its own difficulties. It is vital to see an attorney as soon as possible after an injury takes place. The longer you wait, the less likely a recovery becomes.
  Our attorneys have years of experience negotiating and trying a variety of injury claims and are intimately familiar with how to deal with many types of claims. We know how difficult finances can be after a serious injury, and use every available tool to ensure you get the quickest and largest possible settlement or award.

• Medical Malpractice

  Medical Malpractice is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Unfortunately, most victims and their families fail to make a claim and thus lose out on their right to recover. This usually happens because the medical malpractice process can be intimidating and hospitals have a staff of attorneys and administrators protecting their rights.
  This is why it is important to have an experienced attorney who can guide you through a medical malpractice suit. Our attorneys are experienced medical malpractice specialists who will represent you in front of the medical review board and then take your case to trial if necessary.
  Our firm specializes in ophthalmological medical malpractice and has successfully secured recovery for a variety of ocular diseases. The time to file a claim is very limited so if you believe you or a loved one was a victim of medical malpractice, you should contact Psarellis and Associates as soon as possible.
