The trial lawyers at Hightower, Stratton, Novigrod & Kantor have a wealth of experience in defending against personal injury and wrongful death cases. Damages in wrongful death cases can be highly fact-specific and no two cases are alike. Cases involving catastrophic injury or wrongful death can also be very sensitive endeavors, often coming with publicity or media coverage that can put even more pressure on a company or its insurer. Our lawyers have developed strategies designed to elicit the key facts and issues through discovery to assist in evaluating wrongful death cases as expeditiously as possible and handling the more sensitive matters. Whether you are interested in going to trial or attempting to resolve the case early, our attorneys have tried hundreds of cases to verdict and settled and mediated countless others.

• Automobile, trucking, and motorcycle accidents
