At Morris, Downing & Sherred, LLP, our attorneys understand how deeply a serious injury can impact you and your family, especially one that leaves you without a limb, or a sensory function like sight or hearing. We are committed to helping New Jersey victims obtain the compensation they need to rebuild their lives and hold negligent parties accountable.
Loss of Limbs
The loss of a limb is a permanent injury, and one that will require you to make many changes to your everyday life. In addition to the amputation itself, there are often ongoing care and costs required for things such as:
- Prosthetic devices
- Physical and occupational therapy
- Modifications to your home to accommodate your injury
- Chronic problems with pain and phantom limb syndrome
- Infections
While money can never replace what you have lost, it can cover the costs for your medical needs and loss of income so that you can live your life as fully as possible. Our attorneys believe in a personal and compassionate approach to each case, and we handle injury claims on a contingency basis.
Eye And Ear Injuries
Your vision plays a crucial role in helping you function from day to day, perhaps more so than any other sense. Any loss of vision, even if minor or temporary, can be devastating. Additionally, many accidents involve loud noises, such as crashes or explosions, which can leave you without the ability to hear perfectly. While these types of injuries can make it impossible for you to hold down a job, they also greatly impact your enjoyment of life.
Our firm has been representing injured parties for over 120 years and will advocate aggressively on your behalf. Having obtained millions of dollars in compensation, our attorneys are the recipients of several honors, including being listed as Super Lawyers and earning the highest rating possible of AV Preeminent* from Martindale-Hubbell.
