Car Accident

Every day, hardworking Hoosiers like you are injured in car accidents. And while the insurance company may show up in a flash with a “huge” settlement check in hand, it might not actually cover your short-term expenses, much less the long-term costs of a major crash.

Fortunately, you don’t have to settle. Instead, call Hensley Legal Group, where our dedicated car accident attorneys can get you the funds necessary to pay for your injuries and other damages, as explained in our free book Consumer’s Guide for Injured Victims.

If you have been injured in a car or a rideshare vehicle through no fault of your own, learn how Hensley Legal Group’s Indiana car accident lawyers may be able to help.

Social Security Disability

Social Security Disability (SSD) was created to assist those who are unable to work, yet many claimants are forced to apply for their disability benefits multiple times in the face of persistent denials.

However, if you have been denied Social Security Disability benefits after applying on your own, don’t give up: give Hensley Legal Group a call! Our attorneys are deeply familiar with the appeals process as well as the reasons that applications are frequently rejected, and they can put that knowledge to work for you.

Truck Accidents

A truck or semi-trailer accident can saddle you with catastrophic injuries demanding a lifetime of care, and the nature of commercial trucking could make it tough to identify everyone who may share blame for it, but you can rely on Hensley to go after ALL of the potential defendants.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents are generally much more punishing than car accidents, in large part because there is so little to protect a rider from other vehicles or the road itself. Moreover, the superior automotive skills that many motorcyclists display rarely make up for the fact that so many drivers fail to notice their presence until it’s too late, but Hensley Legal Group will fight to get riders fully compensated for their losses.

Slip and Fall Accidents

When slick surfaces, uneven flooring, dim lighting, substantial accumulations of water and ice, and other threats to safety in public and private spaces are not remedied, slip and fall accidents may be inevitable, but anyone who gets injured could have grounds for a premise liability claim.

Though it can be more difficult to prove liability in these kinds of cases, the personal injury lawyers at Hensley Legal Group are highly proficient at unearthing compensable misconduct by Indiana property owners.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents

Crowded streets, vulnerable pedestrians, and distracted drivers are a recipe for disaster. Negligent drivers who plow through stop signs or run red lights while talking or texting should be held accountable when they cause an auto-pedestrian crash or bicycle accident. If you’ve been involved in an accident where a driver failed to see you, contact us.

Nursing Home Abuse

Nursing homes promise to care for those who are dear to us as considerately as they would care for those who are dear to them, but sadly that promise is often hollow, transforming what should have been someone’s golden years into a terrifying ordeal that ruins whatever time may be left.

But if a close relative is being abused or neglected in a nursing home, your family doesn’t have to go through this tragedy alone. Click here to learn more about how Hensley Legal Group may be able to help.

Medical Malpractice

Doctors and nurses are supposed to provide professional healthcare that makes us better, yet medical malpractice can make us so much worse, resulting in illness, permanent disability, disfigurement, brain damage, depression, anxiety, and other dire consequences. Mistreated patients may soon find themselves overwhelmed by mounting medical bills, loss of income, and the prospect of prolonged rehabilitation, and they have every right to be compensated for their physical and financial damages.

Prescription Mistakes

Just as we trust doctors to correctly diagnose us, we trust pharmacists to give us the correct medication prescribed by our doctors, and prescription mistakes can break that trust.

Pharmaceutical errors are no exception, and you may be owed compensation if you were injured by a prescription mistake by a pharmacy or other caregiver.

Workers’ Compensation Claims

Talcum Powder and Ovarian Cancer

GM Vehicle Recalls

Recently, GM recalled 1.3 million vehicles for a defective ignition switch. Officials say that this switch can malfunction as a result of bumps against the ignition while driving, heavy keychains hanging from the ignition, and rough roads and other external factors that may” jar” a car in motion.

While GM insists that it is actively working to fix the problem, that doesn’t mean that the company should escape responsibility, so contact us to learn more about the recall and how Hensley Legal Group may be able to help.

Syngenta Corn Lawsuit

Farmers who grew corn in 2013 and 2014 may be eligible to file a claim for reimbursement of income they lost because of falling corn prices. Syngenta, a Swiss agribusiness, released Agrisure Viptera to the U.S. corn market when it had not yet been approved in China, and corn prices subsequently plummeted when China began refusing U.S. corn imports. The lawsuit will be based on what individuals grew and yielded in 2013 and 2014.

Hensley Legal Group is no longer taking new Syngenta cases. If you feel you have a viable claim, we encourage you to contact another law firm.
