The Road to Recovery Starts Here

Our firm represents individuals injured because of the negligent or intentional behavior of another. Victims of personal injury are entitled to financial compensation for their medical and property expenses, incidental costs caused by the accident, and may be entitled to additional
damages to cover future expenses, pain and suffering, or other issues.

"Wrongful Death" is a legal term that refers to situations when a person dies due to the negligence of another. Wrongful Death cases may arise as a result of a variety of incidents, including car and other motor vehicle accidents and medical malpractice. The goal of our firm is to make sure that the survivor and beneficiaries are maximally compensated for their loss. In times of grief it is obviously difficult for family members to understand the importance of a prompt investigation of the circumstances of death, preservation of evidence and identification of responsible parties. Let our firm be your guide.

Automobile Accidents

We have represented a large number of automobile accident victims. We take great pride in limiting our representation to plaintiffs and in representing no insurance companies involved in these claims. We are committed to treating each case, large or small; with the seriousness it deserves in order to assure that each of our clients receives the compensation that he or she deserves.

Medical Malpractice

A medical malpractice case involves injuries arising from the care or treatment rendered by a medical provider. Medical providers include physicians, nurses, hospitals, psychologists, x-ray technicians and a variety of other medical professionals. There are many different kinds of medical malpractice, but some examples are: dispensing the wrong medicine or the wrong dose of medicine; improper reading of x-rays; transfusion errors; the misdiagnosis of a life-threatening condition; surgery on the wrong limb; accidents during surgery; infections related to treatment; birth trauma; preventable suicide; restraint-related injuries; burns, falls and pressure ulcers. If you believe you've been the victim of a medical mistake, you should contact an attorney with experience in medical malpractice to evaluate and handle your case as quickly as possible. There are complicated and stringent statutes of limitations for medical malpractice cases limit the amount of time an injured individual has to file a lawsuit.

Divorce
Is not an easy subject to discuss.
We do not encourage anyone to enter into divorce lightly, but sometimes it is the best solution.

When a domestic relations problem arises, it's important to discuss it as soon as possible with a lawyer who is knowledgeable and experienced in domestic relations law.

The divorce itself is only one part of a domestic relations case, and in terms of the legal issues and work involved, often the divorce is the simplest part of the entire process. There are many related, and usually much more difficult, matters to be considered such as custody, financial support, property division, debts, settlement agreements and tax consequences. Talk to Oliver Kitchens today to fully protect all your interests.

 

We handle a variety of estate planning matters, including planning for the distribution of an individual's property at his or her death and taking into account wills, taxes, insurance, property, and trusts so as to gain the maximum benefit of all laws, while, at the same time, carrying out the person's wishes. By way of example, estate planning may include wills, spousal and children's trusts, insurance trusts, special needs trusts, revocable living trusts, irrevocable trusts, advance medical directives, powers of attorney (general, special and medical), as well as an array of sophisticated planning techniques used to protect assets from unnecessary probate costs and taxation.

In addition to estate planning, we also assist clients with Probate and Estate Administration. Probate is the legal process by which a person's debts are paid and assets are distributed upon her or his death. Estate Administration includes the probate process as well as non-probate transfers of the deceased's assets. Individual state laws direct the probate court how to distribute the deceased's estate. State laws and procedures vary greatly, so, it is important to consult a firm with expertise in this area of the law to ensure that the deceased's assets are distributed correctly.
