Personal Injury Defense
The law firm of Murphy, Rogers, Sloss, Gambel & Tompkins has years of experience in providing skilled representation to firms and companies facing personal injury claims. We represent clients from around the world with litigation in New Orleans and throughout the Gulf South.
Our collective experience allows us to assess a personal injury claim being brought against our client and the exposure faced, and to accurately recognize the value of a given claim. We can then provide our client with a clear understanding of the claim’s potential value and formulate a cost-effective strategy for handling that claim by effectively tasking the appropriate level of experience and skill within the firm to handle the case. This customized legal strategy and appropriate billing strategies minimize estimated contingent liability for cases that may take time in negotiation or litigation.
The firm handles all forms of personal injury defense, including these areas linked below:
Insurance Defense
Premises Liability
Product Liability
General Casualty
Jones Act & Longshore
The firm will fully investigate each claim against our client. Thoroughly understanding the nature of the incident, our attorneys defend our clients against liability for which it is not responsible and take measures to shift that liability to other parties that may have been partially responsible for the claim.
We make it a point to understand our client’s business, and we remain always mindful of its commercial interests as we handle a case. We keep our clients fully informed at each step and new development, and devise a mutually agreeable strategy to resolve the claim in the best manner possible, whether that means an early settlement or taking the case through trial and appeal.
