COMPASSIONATE, CONFIDENT AND AGGRESSIVE
What we do
The law exists to create a level playing field so that ordinary people can seek justice as a result of harms caused by others. We believe it is important for an injured person to be able to stand up against companies with immense legal resources at their disposal. Dealing with insurance companies while trying to recover from physical injuries can be stressful and overwhelming.
This is why we put our energy, training, and passion into helping people through one of the toughest challenges they can face We have the commitment, experience, and resources to beat insurance companies at their own game by diligently managing the incredible complexity of Brain Injury, Long Term Disability Denials, Catastrophic Personal Injury, and Insurance Bad Faith cases.
Many of the people who come to us for help are understandably frustrated. Our goal from the start is to lift the burden of dealing with insurance companies and the legal system from our clients, allowing them to focus on healing while we take care of everything else.
How we work
"Teamwork" is the hallmark of how we approach cases at Nelson Langer Engle. At Nelson Langer Engle, our clients have a team of dedicated and caring professionals - lawyers, independent nurse consultants, case managers, paralegals, legal assistants, and medical records and billing coordinators, who work on each aspect of every case to achieve the best possible result. We believe that the client is the most important member of the team and pride ourselves on working closely with our clients so that we can best represent the nature and extent of their injuries. Therefore, to represent our clients most effectively, we guide them through the medical and legal steps in a timely and compassionate manner as advocates of their physical and financial well-being. We know how to analyze, evaluate, and present evidence to prove insurance companies have acted unfairly. We know how to work with healthcare providers to prove the physical, emotional, and financial injuries, especially those involving complexities such as brain injury. To do this requires experience, financial resources, and a willingness to take risks. At Nelson Langer Engle, we have what it takes.
