Criminal Law

• Criminal Defense
  Brod completed law school with flying colors and proceeded to work in a general litigation firm. The firm handled various cases such as insurance defense, criminal defense, divorce, and civil rights, immersing the young lawyer in courtroom litigation.
• DUI/DWI
  For one, reckless and negligent drivers abound. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that drunk-driving is a “particularly severe” problem in Philly – in 2013 alone, the city had 4,558 DUI arrests.
• Wrongful Death
  The law entitles you to be repaid for your emotional and financial suffering if your loved one died wrongfully. To establish that it was a wrongful death and to obtain justice, it’s important for you to have a competent yet compassionate lawyer on your side.
• Traffic Violations
  Experts say that to make the city safer for bicyclists, Philadelphia has to have better traffic enforcement, improved intersections, and more protected bike lanes. There is also a need to crack down on speeding drivers as well as motorists who run red lights.
• Sex Crimes
  Data from the National Police Misconduct Statistics and Reporting Project shows that compared to the average person, police officers are more likely to commit crimes such as murder, assault, and sexual assault. The data also suggests that roughly 1 in every 4.7 law enforcement officials will be involved in an act of misconduct at some point in their career.
• Misdemeanors
• Assault
• Murder
• Hit and Run
  It is sad to think that just crossing the street or jogging alongside it can expose someone to real risks because of reckless or negligent motorists. For instance, the NHTSA’s 2015 report states that 15 percent of the fatal pedestrian crashes involved drunk drivers (with blood alcohol levels of.08 g/dL or higher). Further, 19 percent of the pedestrians killed that year were struck in hit-and-run crashes.

Employment Law

• Sexual Harassment

Property Law

• Premises Liability
  Anyone legally visiting someone else’s property has a reasonable expectation to be safe from harm or injury. Property owners, therefore, have the responsibility to maintain their premises safe and free from hazardous conditions. When they fail this responsibility and their negligence leads to a visitor’s injury, that visitor can have a basis for a premises liability claim.

• Medical Malpractice
  When you go to a doctor, health provider, or any other medical practitioner, you do so with the expectation that they will help you get well, upholding their professional standard of care. But if a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or hospital staff only made your condition worse, and you believe they made a negligent mistake, it may be a case of medical malpractice.
• Auto Accidents
• Dog Bites
  Most dogs live up to their image as man’s best friend, but there are also plenty of dogs that are aggressive and quick to bite. Dog attacks and dog bites are very common – in fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that about 4.5 million dog bites happen each year in the US.
• Slip and Fall Injury
  Have you slipped or tripped on someone else’s property and sustained a serious injury from it? It may be more than just a simple, commonplace accident. A slip-and-fall injury may legally entitle you to compensation under the concept of premises liability.
