In Alabama, personal injury cases must be filed within two years of the date of your accident so it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Our attorneys and legal team are skilled at handling all manner of injury cases, including, but not limited:
Defective Products
There are hundreds of defective products on the market today. Defective products can include machinery, such as cranes or ATV’s, toys, sports equipment, tires, and many other products that can cause serious harm or even death. A defective products case takes experienced product liability attorneys to examine all evidence and investigate fully.
Trucking Accidents
An accident involving an eighteen-wheeler or other commercial truck can be much more severe than a more common car accident. According to the Insurance institute to Highway Safety (IIHS) most deaths in large trucks crashes are passenger vehicle occupants. Due to the size of a large commercial truck, a collision involving such a vehicle is likely to result in serious, even fatal, injury. If you or a loved one has been injured by a truck accident, you may be entitled to financial compensation for the victim.
Maritime Injury
The attorneys of Tobias & Comer Law, LLC have significant experience in the area of maritime personal injury, whether it be in the case of a maritime industry worker, such as a dockhand or seaman, or in the case of accidents on the water involving a pleasure craft or jet ski.
Wrongful Death
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), accidents are the 5th leading cause of death in the U.S. Wrongful death claims can arise from medical negligence, automobile or trucking accidents, defective products, and the list goes on.
Auto Accidents
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, more than 30,000 fatal automobile accidents occur each year. When a person suffers from a serious motor vehicle crash, it can be confusing and scary. It is important to contact an attorney immediately so that all evidence can be obtained in a timely manner.
Alcohol and Drug Related Injuries
Many substances can impair driving, including alcohol, some over-the-counter and prescription drugs, and illegal drugs. Those who drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs, whether obtained legally or illegally, pose a danger to themselves, their passengers, and other road users.

Property owners have a responsibility to keep their property safe and warn visitors of any potential hazards. If they fail to do so, they can be held liable for any injuries that result. This includes workplace and construction site injuries, amusement park accidents, slip-and-fall accidents, and accidental drowning. Injuries can range from a broken bone to a traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, or even wrongful death. If you sustained an injury on another person’s property, keep records of the scene of the accident and of your injury. It is best to hire an attorney right away to help with collecting evidence and filing charges.
