Dylan T. Heard

Personal Injury The results of a car accident can be physically, emotionally, and financially devastating and can affect you for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, insurance companies will make every attempt to settle any and all claims as soon as possible.

Wrongful Death Dealing with the loss of a loved one is already difficult enough, but knowing that the loss was caused by someone else’s negligence only adds to the grief.

Estate Planning Most people rather not think about their death, and many people don’t, until it’s too late. Perhaps the only thing more difficult than imagining leaving behind your family is the thought of them fighting over the things that you left behind rather than cherishing your memory.
