Terry is a practicing lawyer based in St. Louis, Missouri and with Illinois offices in Rockford, Illinois.

For the past 10 years, he has exclusively represented people injured by the negligence of others. He started his solo practice in 2007 focusing primarily on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331627.html"> <span style="font-weight: bold;"> motor vehicle accidents</span></a>, <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="lawyer-attorney-1331621.html"> nursing home abuse and neglect</a>, <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="lawyer-attorney-1334677.html"> workers’ compensation</a>, <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="lawyer-attorney-1331623.html"> medical malpractice</a>, <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="lawyer-attorney-1337311.html"> wrongful death</a>, and <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="lawyer-attorney-1334665.html"> other serious personal injuries</a>.</span></p><p>David is also a professional speaker and an author.

He has also spoken nationally on nursing home abuse and neglect and small law firm marketing.</p><br><h4>Motor Vehicle Accidents</h4><br><p>It can happen in an instant. One moment you are on your way to pick up the kids from school; the next second you are upside down with blood on you, smoke coming from your car, a horn blaring in the distance, and searing pain coming from your leg. You have just entered into the world of ambulances, hospitals, therapy, lost wages, and mounting medical bills.</p><p>Motor vehicle accidents involve car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrians hit, buses, delivery trucks and more. Accidents are generally caused because someone was negligent. Whether they became distracted from texting, changing the radio, talking with a passenger, or were driving impaired is a matter that will be determined through intense investigation.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331627.html"> Missouri and Illinois motor vehicle accidents</a>.</p><br><h4>Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect</h4><br><p>Malnutrition, dehydration, bedsores, falls, physical abuse, sexual assault, and medication overdoses.</p><p>These are just some of the horrors our senior citizens are experiencing in Illinois and Missouri nursing homes. Nursing home owners regularly pad their own pockets at the expense of vulnerable and helpless residents. Through a series of commonly owned companies and corporations, owners will withdraw hundreds of thousands of dollars into their own bank account, leaving little money left for appropriate staffing and proper care. A good <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331559.html"> nursing home abuse and neglect attorney </a> can help those whose family members have been harmed in Illinois and Missouri nursing homes.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331621.html"> Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect</a>.</p><br><h4>Worker’s Compensation</h4><br><p>Work-related injuries can be devastating for workers and their families. Suddenly, a regular paycheck is in jeopardy. Missouri and Illinois injured workers are faced with questions about lost wages, future wages, medical bills, doctors, permanent partial disability, permanent total disability, and more. It is important for workers to know that workers’ compensation laws remain "no fault", which simply means that you don’t have to prove that your employer was negligent, like you do in other civil cases. Instead, you need to show that you were at work and doing your job when the injury occurred. The big question is the nature and extent of your injury.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1334677.html"> Workers’ Compensation Attorney</a>.</p><br><h4>Medical Malpractice</h4><br><p>According to recent estimates, between 40,000 to 90,000 people die every year as a result of hospital errors. Those are staggering numbers. Medical errors come in many forms, from misdiagnosing a treatable but subsequently terminal illness to surgical errors, such as cutting an artery. Even more people experience life-altering injuries when medical providers are negligent. Medical negligence cases are complex and difficult and it takes an experienced attorney to offer advice on potential claims.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331623.html"> Missouri and Illinois Medical Malpractice Attorney</a>.</p><br><h4>Wrongful Death</h4><br><p>Fatal injuries happen as a result of car accidents, truck accidents, nursing home abuse and neglect, medical malpractice, and even on-the-job injuries. When death happens as a result of another person’s negligence, family members are eligible to bring a case of wrongful death. Depending upon the type of case involved, surviving family members may be entitled to significant monetary damages.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331559.html"> Missouri and Illinois Wrongful Death Lawyer</a>.</p><br><h4>Other Serious Personal Injuries</h4><br><p>Amputations, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, and other catastrophic injuries can happen in any number of ways. From dog bites to slip and fall cases to train impacting vehicles on railroad crossings, the possibilities of suffering a serious personal injury are greater than one might imagine.</p><p style="text-align: right;">More on <a href="lawyer-attorney-1331559.html"> Serious Personal Injury Lawyer</a>.</p><br><h4>Do I Need A Lawyer For My Car Accident Case? Maybe Not!</h4><br><p>While not every injury case requires the help of a lawyer, everyone who has been injured or whose family member has been injured or suffered a wrongful death should at least consult a lawyer. If you don’t at least know your rights, you don’t stand a chance when you go up against an experienced defense lawyer or insurance claims adjuster.</p><p>So, how do you know if you need a lawyer or not? Basically, if you were in a car accident and received no injuries or your injuries were so minor that you required little to no medical attention, you probably don’t need a lawyer to help you with your case. If you were injured but recovered within a few days, you may be better off negotiating a settlement with the opposing insurance company on your own than hiring an attorney. On minor cases, the lawyer fees may actually cut into what you could get by negotiating your own settlement.</p><br><h4>Whether You Are Going To Go It Alone Or You Have A Lawyer To Help You, Here Is Your First Step...</h4><br><p><b> Request a FREE copy of David’s book </b> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"> "11 Mistakes That Could Wreck Your Missouri Car Accident Case"</span>.
