Criminal Law

• Wrongful Death
  If you were hit by a car, it is important to consult with an experienced attorney as soon as possible. An insurance company is likely to offer you a quick settlement, but it is probably far less that your claim is worth. We will work with experts, including medical professionals, life care planners, and accountants who can testify to the full extent of your damages. Our goal is to maximize your recovery for all losses sustained, including medical expenses, long term care needs, pain and suffering, lost wages and wrongful death.

Property Law

• Premises Liability
  Dangerous conditions on public or private property can cause serious injuries, including head, neck and back injuries, and even death. Our firm represents the victims and families, including many seniors who have suffered a slip and fall or trip and fall caused by negligent construction or maintenance of walkways, sidewalks, floors and stairs. We are also experienced in other premises liability claims involving unsafe work sites, stores, schools, hotels, parking lots, and gas stations.

Health Law

• Personal Injury
  If you or your family are hurt in an accident caused by the carelessness or wrongful conduct of another, you may have a right to money compensation for past and future medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of the enjoyment of life, and long-term care. After an injury or accident, you want an advocate who will fight aggressively to protect your rights and maximize your recovery for your harms and losses. Attorney Kent Heeringa is dedicated to protecting the rights of personal injury victims and will work tirelessly to get you the full recovery you need and deserve.
• Auto Accidents
• Dog Bites
• Slip and Fall Injury
  Slip/trip and falls are a major cause of injury in the United States. For seniors, they are the No. 1 cause of accidental injury and death. Most falls are the result of either an unsafe walking surface or inadequate lighting. Most falls could have been prevented if the property owners had complied with regulations and standards for safe walking conditions. Everyone should have the right expect that walking surfaces (sidewalks, stairs, parking lots, and floors) are safe. Any person who has suffered a slip-and-fall injury knows that the impact can be life altering, causing serious injury to the head, neck or back. At the Law Office of Kent Heeringa, we are focused on helping our clients maximize compensation after severe injury caused by slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall accidents.
