PRACTICE AREAS
PERSONAL INJURY AND INSURANCE CLAIMS
We will vigorously pursue your right to recover personal injury damages from negligent defendants and their insurance companies. Damages to which you may be entitled include medical expenses, lost wages, physical and emotional pain and suffering, and loss of ability to pursue your normal course of life. We have successfully prosecuted and settled hundreds of personal injury claims, including automobile accidents, wrongful death and catastrophic injury claims. Most personal injury claims are handled on a 25 percent contingency fee, and if you do not receive a recovery, there is no attorney fee.
BUSINESS AND CIVIL LITIGATION
In business and civil issues, we are recognized as a leading firm in Montana for complex civil litigation cases. Our attorneys and staff have substantial experience in all phases of civil litigation, from pleadings to conducting discovery and depositions, arranging for and coordinating expert witnesses, preparing for and conducting trials, briefing legal issues, and representing your interests to the full extent of the law.
RAILROAD CLAIMS (F.E.L.A.) For over 20 years we have been helping railroad workers, including engineers, conductors, electricians, and maintenance of way employees, protect their rights under the complex Federal Employers Liability Act. Our experienced attorneys and staff will guide you through applications for disability benefits, and will file suit and pursue your right to recover damages for on the job injuries. We have recovered millions of dollars from Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Montana Rail Link. If you are an injured railroad worker, we urge you to contact us immediately, because the claims department is already working on your case.
BANKING LITIGATION
We have thirty years experience representing the interests of banks, including collections, bankruptcy adversarial proceedings, the negotiation and drafting of work out agreements on problem loans, and we have successfully defended borrower’s claims ranging from discrimination to bad faith.
APPEALS
Our firm has an outstanding record of success in the appeal of civil matters before the Montana Supreme Court, handling a diversity of cases for Plaintiffs and Defendants involving constitutional issues, banking, and employment issues.
ESTATES AND PROBATES Our clients are offered a comprehensive list of cost effective estate planning and probate services, from assistance and advice regarding the transfer of wealth, to the preparation of wills and trusts, and probating of estates.
FARM AND RANCH
We are the attorneys for some of the largest farming and ranching interests in North Central Montana, assisting clients in real property acquisitions, crop and grazing leases, oil, gas and wind leases, and litigation to recover for losses to crops and livestock. Our paralegal staff has years of experience in farming and ranching and we understand the issues unique to your industry.
WRONGFUL DEATH
We have assisted many families seeking to recover damages for the wrongful death of a family member. If you have lost someone through the negligent or wrongful act of another, we can retain the expert witnesses necessary to establish both the liability of the negligent party and the damages you have suffered as a result of the loss of the care, comfort, and society of your loved one.
