Motorcycle accidents, often more devastating than car collisions, can leave riders with severe injuries or worse.

Truck Accidents
Just as motorcycle accidents pose serious risks, truck accidents are equally hazardous, often resulting in significant legal complexities due to the size and regulations involved. When you’re involved in an accident with a truck, the stakes are invariably higher. These massive vehicles can cause devastating injuries and substantial property damage. We’ve seen firsthand how these accidents can turn lives upside down.
At Stephens Fiddes McGill & Associates, P.C., we understand the intricate nature of truck accident claims. These cases often involve multiple parties, from the truck driver to the company that owns the truck, and sometimes even the manufacturers of truck parts. It’s not just about proving who was at fault; it’s about navigating through a maze of industry-specific regulations and proving negligence.
We’re here to take on that burden for you. Our team uses its years of trial experience to tackle these complex cases and ensure that our clients receive the compensation they deserve. We’re committed to answering your questions and guiding you every step of the way.

Nursing Home Neglect
At Stephens Fiddes McGill & Associates, P.C., we recognize that nursing home neglect is a deeply troubling issue, one that often goes unnoticed until serious harm has occurred. We’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact it can have on families, and we’re here to help.
Nursing home neglect involves the failure to provide adequate care and protection to residents. This can manifest in several ways, including poor hygiene, malnutrition, or a lack of proper medical treatment. Often, the signs are subtle, such as unexplained injuries, sudden weight loss, or a change in behavior. It’s crucial to recognize these signs early to prevent further harm.
We’re committed to standing up for the rights of our elderly community members. Our team leverages years of trial experience to ensure that victims of neglect receive the justice and compensation they deserve.

Remember, you’re not alone.
Asbestos Exposure
While addressing nursing home neglect remains a significant part of our practice, we also focus intensely on cases of asbestos exposure. This harmful substance, once widely used in construction and various industries, has left a tragic legacy of health issues, primarily mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
We’re here to help those affected by its hazardous effects. Asbestos exposure often happens unknowingly, with symptoms appearing decades later, making cases complex and evidence hard to gather. That’s where our expertise and experience come into play.
We’ve spent years building cases, understanding the intricacies of asbestos-related laws, and ensuring that our clients receive the compensation they deserve. We treat every client’s case with utmost importance, whether it’s a direct exposure from working environments or secondary exposure through contact with materials.
Our team is committed to providing detailed guidance and support throughout the legal process. We’re always here to answer your calls and questions, ensuring you feel valued and informed.
If you or a loved one has suffered from asbestos exposure, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to assess your situation and explore the best avenues for justice and compensation.

Dog bites can vary widely, from minor nips to severe attacks. Regardless of the severity, the consequences can be long-lasting. We’ve handled cases involving significant medical treatments, psychological trauma, and loss of income due to recovery time.
