Finding a lawyer is easy. Type “I need a Buffalo personal injury lawyer” into a search engine and your head soon will be spinning with the number of choices. Sure, many lawyers are out there vying for attention, but are they the right lawyers for your case?
The “right” lawyer needs to have experience handling complex cases and needs to deliver results for clients. You want someone who can be your aggressive advocate. You want someone who knows how to negotiate with the insurance companies and is not afraid to take a case to trial if necessary.
I decided to put the Law Offices of James Morris – a Buffalo law firm – to the test. After taking a close look at the firm, I came away very impressed. They receive my highest rating as a top law firm in Buffalo, New York.
Let’s start with a couple of impressive facts. James Morris, who has been practicing for more than 25 years, was selected by Super Lawyers in the personal injury field in 2009 and 2010 as one of New York State’s best lawyers. The attorneys at the firm have more than 100 years of combined experience.
All of that experience appears to have paid off for the firm’s clients. The James Morris Law Firm has a very impressive track record in a wide variety of cases.
A closer look at the firm’s cases
They represented a family of a motorist killed by a negligent tractor trailer driver. In this tragic wrongful death case, a truck driver was speeding and crossed a center line to pass another vehicle. A motorist was killed. The Law Offices of James Morris was able to fight for the family and negotiate a $1.55 million settlement that covers loss of income and benefits the father provided to his wife and children.
What’s especially impressive about this law firm is they are adept at successfully handling so many different types of cases. When you examine attorney James Morris’ record, it becomes obvious why he was selected as a “Super Lawyer.” He knows how to handle just about any type of personal injury case.
For example, the James Morris Law Firm was able to help an injured electrician’s apprentice obtain an $825,000 settlement after extensive litigation and settlement negotiations.
Other types of cases that resulted in six-figure settlements include automobile accidents, slip and falls, injured children and nursing home neglect, among other cases. The firm even helped negotiate a case for someone injured in a skydiving plane crash.
James Morris and his team of attorneys and staffers work from a convenient location in downtown Buffalo, 424 Main Street, across from Lafayette Square. While location is not the top reason to recommend a law firm, there is definitely an upside to having a lawyer who is located in a downtown area with lots of good parking.
OK, so what if you can’t get to attorney Morris’ office building? Many personal injury victims are in rough shape. An auto accident victim may even be recuperating in a hospital. In what I find to be a very nice personal touch, they will arrange to visit a client who can’t get to the downtown office.
What’s more, they offer free case evaluations. In other words, you can talk to them about your potential case at no obligation.
The Law Offices of James Morris is a full service firm that knows how to deliver results. Whether you’ve been injured in a car accident, injured in a workplace accident or need to file a wrongful death claim, James Morris is the “right” lawyer for you.
