Central Iowa Injury Lawyers - Jeff Carter Law Offices, P.C.
If you are facing a legal problem, it is easy to feel lost, even overwhelmed. You may feel like you lack the information and guidance you need to make the right decisions. At the Jeff Carter Law Offices, P.C., in Des Moines, Iowa, our focus is on keeping our clients informed and educated about their case. We believe that during stressful times, you need effective solutions to your legal problems, not more headaches.
Our attorneys have over 25 years of collective experience, and we apply that experience to every medical malpractice, car accident, personal injury and workers' compensation case that we take. Contact us for a free consultation.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
A car accident, motorcycle accident or truck accident can leave you injured and without a vehicle. Don't be pressured into settling a case for less than you deserve, and don't try to tackle the insurance company yourself. We will deal directly with the insurance company on your behalf to negotiate a settlement that will take care of your needs. If necessary to protect your interests, we are prepared to litigate your claim.
Medical Malpractice
When doctors and medical providers make mistakes that cause injury, the resulting medical malpractice claim is usually complex and extensive. With over 20 years of litigation experience behind us, we have the knowledge it takes to navigate through the practice, from discovery through trial, if needed. The other side will do what they can to deny liability or undermine your claim for damages. We will stand by you and stand up to the insurance company and their attorneys.
Workers' Compensation
Being injured on the job can bring on fear and confusion. How much work will you miss? Who will pay your medical bills? What if your disability rating doesn't truly reflect your physical condition? You may have the right to compensation from your employer's workers' compensation insurer and may also be entitled to vocational rehabilitation. The workers' compensation process can be complex and frustrating, but you can count on our experience to guide you.
