- Divorce
- DUI/DWIA serious car accident is all the more tragic and maddening if you and your family find out that an intoxicated driver was at the wheel. Due to the severity of the situation and the legal circumstances, victims of drunk drivers may have additional recourse to recover for their injuries and losses. At Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., we have more than 100+ combined years of experience and have obtained notable recoveries in drunk driving accidents.
- Wrongful DeathWhether you are walking from a store to your car or taking a lengthier walk around town, you expect cars to look out for you and follow the laws. Unfortunately, drivers often behave negligently and strike pedestrians, resulting in serious injury and even wrongful death. The person on foot is at a great disadvantage, due to the impact and speed of a vehicle striking them. At Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., our Woodbridge pedestrian accident attorneys understand the severity of being struck by any type of vehicle. We are here to offer you emotional and legal support during this difficult time.
- Traffic ViolationsIncreasing speed/speeding through a red light: Many drivers increase their speed when the traffic light turns yellow, in an effort to miss the red light. One or two seconds of delay can result in an extremely serious accident.
- RobberyRetail and public facilities are expected to take reasonable precautions to protect the welfare of members of the public, guests, and customers who access these establishments. If you were assaulted in a bar, attacked in a parking garage, or were a victim in an armed robbery on public premises, you owe it to yourself to meet with a lawyer to question the possibility of negligent security. At Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., our Woodbridge personal injury lawyers are highly experienced at investigating the scene of accidents to determine if inadequate security and negligent property management were the cause.
- MisdemeanorsCriminal history: Although having a criminal past shouldn’t prevent you from recovering compensation for an injury, it can hurt your case if you withhold this information from your attorney. The insurance company will likely run a background check to uncover any evidence they can use against you. Always tell your attorney about any misdemeanors or felonies so he or she can prepare accordingly.
- Assault
- Hit and RunThe requirements and procedures to recovering compensation can be complex and are best handled with the help of an experienced law firm. It is very common for an unknown driver to remain unidentified, despite law enforcement's efforts to find a hit and run driver. If the driver is not identified or brought to justice, we may be able to pursue compensation for your damages through your own uninsured or underinsured motorist (UI/UIM) provision of your auto insurance policy.
- Workers CompensationIf you were injured on the job, you may believe that your accident is a workers' compensation case and nothing more. However, a detailed investigation may uncover evidence that a third party was liable and that it is not simply a case involving your employer. A subcontractor, a forklift manufacturer, or a delivery service company may have committed errors that led to your forklift accident. Our Woodbridge workplace accident lawyers at Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., are prepared to analyze your workplace injury.

- Property DamageSome rideshare accidents, depending on the cause and when the accident happened. The policy might cover up to $1.5 million per incident for death, bodily injury, and property damage of those involved. In addition, the company’s policy might cover uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage, which can help cover medical expenses if another driver is at fault but lacks adequate insurance. Lyft carries an incredibly similar insurance policy, too.
