We have been singularly successful for our clients.
Act Now
Please do not wait to contact us. The minute a serious injury or wrongful death occurs the ‘legal clock’ begins to tick down. There are many other practical considerations in preceding as quickly as possible in pursuing a case.
Call us, let’s talk about what you need.
Our Process
Forrest McPadden does not accept every potential client that comes to us. We have a rigorous (for us) selection procedure when assessing new cases.
There’s a simple reason for this . . . it’s because, once we accept a client, we’re in it together. That is not a motto, it’s how we work and in our experience it’s conducive to the best possible results.
If we take your case, I becomes we and we move through it. Together. Every step of the way.
There will be ups and downs, there will be times when you, the client, will be asked to undergo a medical exam, or a deposition, or a dozen other things, many of them not particularly pleasant. We will be there with you.
There will be periods of time when it seems like nothing is going on with your case and we’re just waiting for a court date or document delivery, or . . . but we’ll still be talking.
You don’t cease to exist to us just because nothing imminent is happening with your case. We know you – of course – are still dealing with the reason we’re working so hard together, whatever it may be, physical and/or emotional.
We understand. We will be there for you.
Our Cases
We have successfully pursued cases that involved serious injury or wrongful death due to medical malpractice, faulty products, distracted driving, crimes, and almost anything you can think of where people have been harmed or killed due to the actions, failure to act, malpractice, or negligence of others.
When the responsible party isn’t willing to come forward with a just award, we will do what it takes to get what’s fair for you.
If you or a family member have been harmed, or a loved one has died call us, tell us what happened and together we’ll explore your options.
Our Philosophy
Forrest McPadden’s approach is very much a client-centric approach. If we take your case, we will immediately begin to assess your health, finances, goals, and spirations before and after the incident while outlining a route to mental, physical emotional and/or financial recovery.
We have a very well-earned reputation with the defense bar and the courts for fair dealing and up-front, skillful negotiations. We will make every effort to employ our exceptional negotiation skills to achieve a fair settlement from the responsible parties and their insurance companies.
We do this while preparing for trial. Because we never know when an opposing party may be unaccountably intransigent. When that happens, we’ll be ready for trial.
In the meantime, Forrest McPadden will use our far-reaching connections to put together a ‘dream team’ – doctors, nurses, experts, other lawyers when needed. We very much believe in a team approach . . . which has the additional value of bringing even greater support to our clients.
When it comes to trial, we are fearless.
We would much rather work things out with the defendants, but we will always be ready to move forward with litigation when forced to.
