Brittain Law is a team of litigators, commonly referred to as trial lawyers. Our civil practices focus on personal injury. We have successfully resolved disputes for both plaintiffs and defendants in civil cases and manage all phases of the litigation process from investigation, pleadings and discovery to pre-trial, trial, settlement and appeal.
Civil Litigation
Civil Litigation is a legal dispute between two or more parties seeking monetary damages or specific performance as in transfer of assets if the monetary amount is deemed unsatisfactory. Being a litigator is a challenging and diverse role. It requires the ability to assume an oppositional position and to embrace conflict and controversy. Of the many strengths a great trial lawyer possesses, oral advocacy skills and the ability to analyze complex issues and fact patterns are essential.
Personal Injury
The decision to hire a personal injury attorney is an important decision. This is a difficult time in your life as you are suffering pain from your personal injury, as well as financial burdens associated with medical bills. Brittain Law is a highly experienced team of lawyers with the ability to handle complex issues, and an understanding of the personal support you need during a difficult time.
Construction Defects
All parties in construction defect litigation face potentially serious losses. Property owners are challenged with the cost of repairing significant construction defects, and contractors, design professionals, and engineers are faced with damage to their reputation and the cost of litigation. Construction defect cases often involve highly complex issues requiring legal representation to document the factual record and prepare the case for trial.
Class Action
A class action is a type of lawsuit where one, or several people, bring suit on behalf of a larger group where the issues in the dispute are common to the group, and it is impracticable to bring them all to court. It may involve dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of individuals who suffer damages from product liability, corporate negligence, illegal conduct, or a deceptive practice. The class action is one of the few legal remedies the small claimant has against those who command the status quo.
Probate
Probate law allows a probate court to identify the assets of the deceased, decide on the payment of taxes and incidental expenses, and distribute the assets to the legal heirs as defined in the will. Probate litigation is the process of contesting the will due to disputes between differences between beneficiaries, declaration of personal representatives, and issues regarding creditors. The law of limitation has very strict rules regarding the time allowed for a legal claim regarding probate issues even with a valid claim. Probate litigation is complex. Seeking highly skilled legal counsel as soon as possible is highly recommended in cases of wills and probate laws.
