Legal and
Professional Malpractice
Our trust is often placed on
professionals to take care of our
needs. We expect our lawyers,
doctors, accountants, and other
professionals to use their skill,
knowledge, and training in a
competent manner. When we suffer
damages at the hands of a
professional who fails to
perform, as he or she should, the
law provides a remedy. Putting
together a winning case in never
easy and sometimes not possible.
Few lawyers specialize in this
area for just that reason alone.
You need an experienced lawyer in
this field if you have any hope
of success. We at Madison &
Roberts have that experience.

Personal
Injury and Wrongful Death
If you, or a loved one, are
injured or damaged by another's
negligence or intentional
conduct, or if a loved one is
killed, there are laws to
compensate you for your losses.
You may be able to recover for
your lost wages, pain and
suffering, emotional distress,
loss of enjoyment of life,
medical bills and other damages.
Even if you don't want to go to
court you may be able to achieve
a fair settlement, which lets you
go on with your life. However,
please keep in mind that a
lawsuit, most times, has to be
filed within a certain time limit
and special notices may be
required if a governmental entity
is involved.

Civil
Litigation
Civil litigation is a general
reference to lawsuits for damages
based on contract, fraud or other
wrongs, and many other civil
disputes. Disputes in the areas
of real estate, insurance, small
business, and consumer rights
also fall within this broad
category, in both state and
federal courts. There are often
several ways to reach a
resolution, including mediation,
arbitration, as well as trial.
You should consider lawyers who
have represented both corporate
and individual clients, and who
utilize the latest in technology
and persuasion techniques. We at
Madison & Roberts have that
experience.

Divorce
and Family Law
For most people, divorce is a
painful experience. Disputes
regarding child custody, property
division, etc., often continue
even after the divorce has been
granted. For most people the
divorce is all consuming, and the
stakes are high. We at Madison
& Roberts have the trial
experience and benefit of
skillful negotiation to help get
your life back on track.

Appeals
Sometimes it is necessary to
reverse mistakes, which limit or
destroy your claims. Appeals to
the Court of Appeals, Supreme
Court, Circuit Court, or a
District Court review of a
Magistrate's Decision require a
lawyer with experience in the
area of laws involved. It is
important that you have a lawyer
who knows both the appellate
procedures and the actual process
you went through. Strict time
limits apply for appeals.

Federal
Employer's Liability Act
We at Madison & Roberts have
many combined years of experience
representing clients who have
legal claims against their
employers. The Federal Employer's
Liability Act requires you to sue
for your lost wages, pain and
suffering, and other damages. We
have won many cases where sex,
race and age discrimination, as
well as sexual harassment, have
been the basis for damages. We
also represent work related
injury cases.
