The team of
attorneys and staff at Epperly & Follis, P.C. has recovered
millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our
clients. Just as importantly, we have provided peace of
mind, and that comes with the knowledge that they are well
represented.
Our firm primarily handles the following types of claims:
|
Medical Malpractice. It is common knowledge that
when physicians enter the medical profession, they take an
oath that in part promises to "never intentionally do
harm". Unfortunately, some doctors do cause harm
through their mistakes, ignorance, negligence, lack of
skill and misdiagnosis. Medical malpractice is the result
of a health care provider's failure to provide the
expected standard of care. More

Personal Injury.
If you or someone you know has suffered an injury due to the
negligence of a third party, you have the right to file a
personal injury lawsuit to recover everything you have lost
as a result of the injury. In fact, that’s why personal
injury laws exist – to deliver justice to people harmed
through no fault of their own.
More ...
Wrongful Death.
Wrongful
death refers to a fatality that occurs because of the
negligence or misdeeds of another person, corporation or
entity. In a wrongful death action,
consideration is given to the earnings the deceased would
have provided to their family had they lived and damages
are awarded to survivors based on this monetary loss.

Workplace Injuries.
Workers' compensation is
insurance paid for by employers that provides cash
benefits and medical care if an employee becomes disabled
because of workplace injuries, regardless of fault.
Workers' compensation benefits entitle you to medical
treatment to cure and relieve the effects of your
industrial injury. The injured employee may also be
entitled to lost wages.

Car Accidents. The
attorneys in our Automobile Accidents group are committed to
ensuring that victims of traffic accidents receive fair
compensation. We recommend that you contact a physician and
an attorney following an accident, because seemingly minor
car accidents can cause prolonged pain and medical costs.
Our team will gather, prepare and present the evidence that
is critical to winning your claim.
More ...
Truck Accidents. Trucks are not cars, and it’s important to note that truck accident cases vary from car accident cases in important ways, and that makes them far more complex than other accident cases. The attorneys of Epperly & Follis, P.C., have 15 years of experience in truck accident litigation, and out team will work hard to show that the driver, trucking company, or maintenance worker failed to exercise a duty of reasonable care, which ultimately caused the accident and resulting injuries.
More ...
Product Liability.
If you have been injured
or lost someone because of a dangerous product, you have the
right to file a claim against the supplier or manufacturer
of the product. In the course of our daily lives, we use a
number of products. When used as directed, we rightly assume
that the products we use are safe and reliable.
Unfortunately, thousands of people are injured or die each
year because of dangerous products.
More ...
Investor Fraud.
If you have invested in
securities (stocks, bonds, options, limited partnerships,
mutual funds, certain commodities, etc.) and you have
experienced problems with your investments or your
stockbroker, you may be the victim of securities fraud --
fraud involves deceptive actions and schemes that are
carried out to take advantage of investors.

Brain Injuries.
Such injuries can range
from mild to severe, and can be classified as closed-head
injuries, or open-head injuries. Statistics show that there
are approximately 2 million brain injuries reported each
year in this country, and of those, more than 51,000 are
fatal, and 20-30 percent of the surviving victims suffered
permanent, irreversible disabilities. More
...
Lead Paint Injuries.
While we have handled a
variety of cases, one of the most disturbing areas of
personal injury involves lead paint poisoning. Even though
lead as an ingredient in paint has been prohibited for
almost 25 years in the United States, more than 50% of
children living in urban environments continue to be exposed
to lead paint in their homes and environment.
More ...
Ortho Evra.
The Ortho Evra
contraceptive patch exposes millions of women who use the
patch to levels of estrogen far higher than most daily birth
control pills, putting them at higher risk for blood clots
than previously disclosed. Ortho Evra is the first and only
skin patch approved for birth control, and more than 4
million women have used the patch since it came on the
market three years ago.
More ...
Nursing Home Abuse. Elder abuse has been called the hidden crime because it is
often difficult to recognize, it has been concealed by
nursing home staff, or the victims may be too frightened
or incapacitated to communicate the abuse. An estimated 84
percent of abuse cases go unreported or unrecognized.
