Clients who hire MD Accident Law’s Easton personal injury lawyer can take advantage of our no-fee guarantee: unless and until you are compensated for your accident, you pay no attorney’s fees. This way, everyone who wants legal representation can access our services.
How Personal Injuries Affect Easton Residents
Maryland law acknowledges two primary types of harm that personal injury accidents can cause: economic and non-economic. You can file an insurance claim and/or a personal injury lawsuit for both of these categories of damages.
Bear in mind that compensation is only available to personal injury survivors for three years following most accidents, per Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 5-101.
Non-economic Damages for Personal Injuries
“Non-economic,” in this case, simply refers to the bodily injuries you suffered or expect to suffer in the future due to the at-fault party’s negligence. Common examples include:
- Physical and emotional suffering
- Reduced quality of life
- Loss of consortium
- Disabling injuries
In short, if your injury prevents you from taking care of yourself or your family, or if it will continue to affect your home life well into the future, you deserve compensation.
Economic Damages for Personal Injuries
For many people, the concept of economic damages is easier to grasp than non-economic damages. These are the losses reflected by bills, receipts, and the lack of a paycheck. Adam M. Smallow can help you add up how much your family should be reimbursed for:
- Loss of income
- Loss of employment or job opportunities
- Property damage
- Current medical bills and long-term medical expenses
As with non-economic damages, you should seek compensation for the money you have already lost as well as the money you will likely lose down the road due to, for instance, a long-term inability to work full-time.
Wrongful Death Damages
If you lost a loved one due to a negligence-based accident, our wrongful death lawyers can seek justice and compensation for your family. We can pursue awards for funeral expenses, your loved one’s income, and their medical bills.

Our Easton Personal Injury Attorneys Are Devoted to Clients’ Wellbeing
No matter how much your family needs the money, you might just not feel up to handling a legal case by yourself at the moment. Fortunately, you do not have to: MD Accident Law can be there to guide you from start to finish.
Here are just a few of the ways that our Easton personal injury lawyer can assist you with your case:
Helping You Treat Your Personal Injury
After an accident, your health should always be your number one priority, so it is our priority as well. If you have not had the chance to seek medical care, or if you are dissatisfied with your current provider, let us recommend a top-notch provider.
Our medical-legal partnership benefits clients in two ways: by helping them recover after a devastating injury and by creating further evidence (i.e., medical records) that shows they deserve compensation for their accident.
Negotiating a Personal Injury Settlement
Everyone’s case is different, so we will need to investigate your accident before we can determine the best way of seeking the compensation you and your family require.
For instance, in many cases, we are able to negotiate with the at-fault party’s insurance company for a pretrial settlement. A settlement would:
- Allow you to receive compensation without going to court
- Get the money into your hands faster than would be possible if you had to go through a trial
- Cover all accident-related losses, including both financial and bodily damages
Seeking a Jury Award for Your Easton Accident
Negotiating is not a viable option in every case, however. When necessary, we can start preparing for a courtroom trial. The threat of a trial alone sometimes makes the insurer back down and agree to negotiations, but if they do not, we can:
- Present your case in front of a judge and jury
- Submit evidence and prepare witnesses to testify
- Set trial dates and participate in jury selection
Supporting Personal Injury Clients to the Fullest
Being involved in any kind of accident is an upsetting and disorienting experience. We are committed to making the legal process as accessible and as stress-free as possible in the following ways:
- Offering a free case assessment to everyone who calls us
- Charging no attorney’s fees until after you receive compensation
- Providing you with a unique phone number that you can use to reach us by text all day, every day
- Updating you on your case’s progress on a regular basis
- Dispensing clear and realistic legal advice whenever you want it
When we go to work on a case, we strive to take care of every detail on the client’s behalf. This way, our clients can focus on healing while still going after the compensation they need to support their families.

Liable Parties in Easton Personal Injury Accidents
Who should you sue after a personal injury in Easton? That depends on who displayed negligence in your accident. Possible liable parties include:
- A driver who exceeded the speed limit or disobeyed a traffic sign
- A trucking company that disobeyed regulations
- A medical provider or facility that provided incorrect or substandard care
- A property owner who failed to maintain their property or to warn you about hazards on the property
- A manufacturer that built an unsafe product or failed to take a dangerous product off the market
Insurers Can Make Personal Injury Cases More Challenging
No matter which of these parties turns out to be liable for your injury, you will almost certainly have to deal with an insurance company. Even if the responsible party cannot be found or is uninsured, you may file a claim with your own insurer.
Dealing with insurance adjusters can be an intimidating prospect for the average person, especially when you are struggling to cope with a personal injury. The legal team at Adam M. Smallow can put your mind at ease by talking to the insurer for you and making sure they treat your case fairly and in a timely manner.
