Practice Areas

In addition to causing a great deal of pain and difficulty while a person is receiving treatment and recovering, injuries can have a long-lasting or permanent impact on many areas of their life. The costs related to an injury can have a huge financial impact on a family, and a person's family relationships, their ability to participate in activities they had previously enjoyed, and their overall quality of life may be affected. For those who have been injured by the actions or negligence of others, or for workers who have suffered employment-related accidents or injuries, determining how to address the issues described above can be difficult. Fortunately, those who receive legal help and representation from a qualified and experienced attorney will be able to determine their options for receiving financial compensation that will address the ways they have been affected.

Alford & Associates provides compassionate and effective representation for victims of multiple types of injuries. We understand how devastating these injuries can be and how they can affect a family's finances. Far too often, the expenses related to a serious injury can put a family in financial jeopardy, especially when they struggle to receive the proper insurance coverage or workers' compensation benefits. In these situations, our lawyers are here to help. We can stand up to large insurance companies, employers, or others who were responsible for injuries, and we will fight to make sure victims will be properly compensated.

Legal Help in Personal Injury Cases

When a person is injured because another party acted negligently, they can pursue financial compensation that will address the damages they have suffered. We provide representation for victims in multiple types of personal injury cases, including those involving:

• Car accidents - Collisions between passenger vehicles are usually caused by the negligence of one or more drivers. Those who fail to operate a vehicle safely may be liable for the injuries of others involved in a collision. We can help car wreck victims pursue compensation in cases involving drunk driving, distracted driving, traffic violations, or other forms of driver negligence.
• 18-wheeler accidents - Commercial truck wrecks can result in devastating injuries for drivers or passengers in other vehicles. These collisions are often caused by the negligence of truck drivers and the trucking companies that employ them. We can help victims pursue compensation in truck accidents involving driver fatigue, truck driver distractions, equipment failure, dropped cargo loads, speeding, and jackknifed trucks.
• Other motor vehicle accidents - We help victims determine their options for receiving compensation in cases involving motorcycle accidents, pedestrian or bicycle accidents, Uber/Lyft accidents, and collisions involving delivery drivers working for Amazon, UPS, or FedEx.
• Wrongful death - The family members of a person who was killed because of someone else's negligence or wrongful actions may pursue compensation for multiple types of damages related to the loss of their loved one.

Assistance With Workplace Accidents and Injuries

Workers who are injured while on the job or who experience injuries or illnesses related to the work they have performed will often be eligible for workers' compensation benefits, or they may be able to pursue compensation from other sources. We can provide representation for people who have suffered workplace and jobsite injuries, and we can address issues such as:

• Determining liability for injuries in multiple industries, including construction accidents, refinery and plant accidents, maritime and offshore accidents, as well as injuries involving cranes or forklifts and other heavy equipment.
• Pursuing compensation from a negligent employer in non-subscriber work injuries where an injured worker is not covered by workers' compensation insurance.
• Identifying others who may have been liable for a work injury and pursuing third-party claims against these people or companies.
