Accident Benefits

There are several legislative regimes under which persons who are injured may claim benefits. There are many factors that affect the amount of benefit, the period for which it will be paid and extra benefits that you may claim. All insurers require you to file a claim within a specific time limit and have the right to have their own medical specialists examine you and evaluate your injuries.

Car Accidents

Oatley, Vigmond has developed a national reputation in representing persons seriously injured in motor vehicle crashes. Our lawyers have undergone intensive training in this area. Many of our lawyers educate other lawyers in this complex field. Our reputation is unmatched in ensuring that accident victims obtain fair compensation for their losses.

Disability Claims

Most people have insurance against becoming disabled. Claims of deserving disabled persons are often denied by insurance companies who have the financial wherewithal to intimidate their insureds. Our firm has expertise in assisting persons with disability claims. We can level the playing field.

Medical Malpractice

Our experience in representing individuals who have acquired traumatic injuries has laid the foundation for our medical malpractice services.  We have access to top experts in a wide range of medicine and understand the strategies and considerations which are most important.

Non-Auto Injury Claims

Many people suffer injury as a result of negligence of others. The losses that these victims suffer are no less than those who are injured in automobile accidents. Most often persons causing injury have insurance policies which can be accessed on behalf of victims. There are varying time limits depending upon who caused the injuries and it will be very important that all facts are developed early so that limitation period problems can be avoided.

Product Liability Claims

In this day of mass production, many products are manufactured and distributed to the public without regard for the safety of their users. We have represented many people who have suffered serious injury in using inherently dangerous products. Special expertise of engineers and others is required to establish these legitimate claims. Product liability claims are very complex and cases require intensive preparation and investigation.

Wrongful Death

When a loved one who provided care or financial support dies, you may experience anxiety and uncertainty about the future. At such a stressful time you may be unaware of your rights and obligations.  We know how to help you consider all the options which may be available to you and to seek redress for your pain and loss of support.
