Civil Cases
The U.S. civil justice system empowers a person who has been harmed to obtain compensation for losses and damages if that individual can prove that he or she is entitled to financial compensation.
At the Law Offices of Adam M. Thompson, P.C., we have helped thousands of people find justice through civil lawsuits and private settlements. From winning $1,200,000 for a car accident victim who required fusion surgery after being rear-ended to obtaining $900,000 for a worker who was injured by toxic chemicals, Mr. Thompson is committed to helping victims obtain the compensation they need to benefit from appropriate treatment and move forward with their lives.
