Dane County in 2023 had over 7,000 reported crashes, which resulted in 29 fatalities and over 2,000 injuries. Over a thousand of these accidents could be attributed to driver negligence or wrongdoing. That’s a lot of hurt people in need of representation.

No Upfront Fees
We understand that the financial burden of legal fees can be a significant barrier to seeking justice. That’s why we operate on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing unless we win your case. This means our interests are aligned with yours, and we are motivated to achieve the best possible results on your behalf.

Experienced, Communicative, Sympathetic

At the core of our representation is our desire to see that clients receive all they need to recover from their injury – and to recover well. That starts with compassionate communication as the liaison between the client and the insurance company.

For example, it’s not uncommon for confusing terminology and jargon to cause victims to feel lost and give in to the first insurance offer (or sometimes a total denial).

But our Madison injury lawyers know what insurance companies are after. They know how to communicate what matters, and to ensure these parties consider all the facts surrounding the case and leave nothing out.

What if the case goes to trial?

If the case goes to trial, the Pemberton legal team can assist by:

• Conducting witness interviews
• Bringing in specialists to recreate the accident scene
• Determining the extent of the other party’s negligence
• Gathering other evidence to support your case

Types of Compensation in Personal Injury Cases

Compensation is a means of making up for client losses and/or suffering. In law, we often refer to this sum of financial award as damages.

Now, there are a few common forms of damages that Wisconsin recognizes:

• Economic damages or “special damages.” This group refers to damages like lost wages, medical expenses, the costs to fix the damaged asset (car, bike, etc.), and more.
• General damages, the second type, consist of emotional pain and suffering resulting from the incident, loss of enjoyment in activities the victim once enjoyed before injuries were sustained, and more.
• Punitive damages are a third but less common category of damages that attorneys may utilize for compensation. Punitive damages are designed to penalize the offender for inhibiting the offender from committing the same acts in the future to someone else. If attorneys manage to prove gross negligence, the victim is a good candidate for obtaining punitive damages.

Who Is Liable in Your Case?

In injury cases, liable parties vary depending on the situation.

Other Drivers

If you suffered an injury in an auto accident, there was likely more than one vehicle involved in the crash. These cases are typically the most common. One party makes a claim while the other party’s insurance company pays out the compensation.

Businesses and Employers

Sometimes, however, liability falls to the business responsible for their employee’s actions. If you sustained severe injuries in a truck accident, for example, the trucker’s employer may be the liable party.

Manufacturers

Parts or product manufacturers can inherit liability in cases when faulty items cause injuries. Sometimes liability even falls to the engineer of the item, which you may see in high-profile class-action suits often related to medical devices.

Property Owners or Managers

Say you sustained an injury at a construction site. While sometimes a company or foreman may be involved in liability, you’ll occasionally find that the liable party is the site’s commercial property owner or manager. This could be due to poor or lacking safety measures or outright neglect of the property’s needs, resulting in a worker or pedestrian injury.
