Personal injury cases in Silver Spring

We represent Silver Spring residents in all types of personal injury cases — from traffic accidents on the busiest corridors in town to medical malpractice and falls on someone else's property. Every case is evaluated for free.

Motorcycle accidents

Georgia Ave and University Blvd see heavy motorcycle traffic and serious collisions. We fight for full compensation: medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Pedestrian accidents

Downtown Silver Spring has dense foot traffic around Ellsworth Dr and Colesville Rd. If you were struck while crossing the street, we act fast to preserve evidence.

Slip and fall

Wet floors, broken or poorly lit sidewalks at businesses and apartment buildings. Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe.

Medical malpractice

Delayed diagnoses, surgical or medication errors. These cases require detailed investigation — the initial consultation is free and confidential.

Dog bites

Maryland holds the dog's owner responsible. We recover medical costs, scarring and emotional trauma from the attack.

Defective products

Appliances, tools or vehicles with manufacturing defects that cause injury. The manufacturer can be liable even if you used the product correctly.

Legal deadline

How long do I have to file a claim in Maryland?

You have 3 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit in Maryland. (Maryland Code, Courts & Judicial Proceedings § 5-101) This is the statute of limitations — if it expires, you lose the right to recover no matter how strong your case is.

You should also know Maryland's contributory negligence rule: if the insurance company proves you were even 1% at fault for the accident, they can deny your claim entirely. It's one of the strictest rules in the country — never admit fault at the scene, and speak with an attorney before giving any statement.

The sooner we act, the more evidence we can preserve: security footage, witnesses and medical records. Don't wait — the initial consultation is free.
