Auto Accidents
At Murphy & Landon in Wilmington, Delaware, we have a track record of successful outcomes in car accident cases, among them a $1.5 million recovery in Kadow v. Marino, which involved a passenger who suffered serious injuries in a crash.
Truck Accident
Truck accident cases involve a number of unique laws and regulations that apply to the trucking industry, from hours-of-service laws and truck maintenance requirements, to how drivers are hired and which routes trucks are allowed to drive in Delaware. Our experience in handling major truck accident claims comes from our background as insurance defense lawyers.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice cases in Delaware are seldom settled and typically go to trial. If you have been injured by a doctor, hospital or other medical provider, you will need a lawyer who knows how to engage the right medical experts and take your case to trial.
Nursing Home Neglect
Among the nursing home neglect cases we have handled in Delaware is an unprecedented $13 million verdict in Bailey v. Beebe Hospital, a nursing home negligence case. In this case, a resident who suffered from Alzheimer’s walked into the convalescent center’s freezer. Four hours later, she was found frozen to the floor. It took four staff members to pry her off. While the woman survived, she suffered frostbite to her face, hands, fingers, feet and toes.
Brain Injury
Concussions and brain damage often go undiagnosed in the aftermath of an accident. Eventually, family members begin to notice symptoms of brain damage such as forgetfulness, difficulty in following directions and irritability.
Spinal Cord Injuries
A spinal cord injury will affect every aspect of your life, from how you get from one place to another and how you perform everyday activities to your health and your relationship with your family.
Wrongful Death
At the law firm of Murphy & Landon in Wilmington, Delaware, our goal is to give the victim’s family a chance to obtain a measure of justice and closure for the losses they have suffered.
Work-Related Accidents
If you have been injured at work, our lawyers have experience analyzing work-related accident cases to determine if you can seek additional compensation by filing a personal injury lawsuit.
Dangerous Chemicals
Asbestos and many other toxic substances and chemicals have been linked to cancer and other diseases. For example, people who work with solvents containing benzene are at increased risk for developing leukemia and other blood cancers. Our attorneys have proven successful in litigating these types of cases. Attorneys Roger Landon and Philip Edwards won a $2.8 million verdict in Gates v. Texaco, a chemical exposure case.
