They’re Human Too
My name is Griff Tonkin.
I'm one of the attorneys here at the Arthofer & Tonkin Law Offices.
Today, I want to discuss personal injury cases involving public entities.
At our firm, we only represent people who've been hurt through someone else's negligence.
Public entities are giant organizations, and our tax dollars support them.
Public entities operate a number of vehicles.
They have a number of employees.
They're in charge of maintaining public lands to hundreds of thousands of acres and tens of thousands of miles of roadway.
Now, public entities can make mistakes.
They're human, too.
Their employees can make mistakes.
They're human, too.
Public Entity
We represented the number of injured parties against public entities, but the lawyers who take on a public entity must know what they're doing.
You need to be represented by a lawyer who's done it before and done it a number of times.
There's a good reason for this: when you sue a public entity, the time frame to bring the claim is very short.
If you don't properly claim the public entity, you may use your right to sue.
If you do properly reserve your right to make a claim, or rather, you're a good lawyer like those here at Arthofer & Tonkin, properly reserve your right to make a claim, then you have to file your lawsuit in that short period of time.
Get The Compensation You Deserve
There are special defenses that are allowed under law just for public entities, in part because they do manage so much land and manage so many roadways.
You need to work with an attorney prepared to deal with those defenses so that your claim and your lawsuit can be properly prosecuted against a public entity and you can get the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
If you've been involved in a personal injury accident, whether it's with a public entity or any other party that caused your injuries, give our office a call today.
Our consultation is free; you'll sit down with a real attorney, and we can help work through the details of your case with you.
