Providence, Rhode Island Personal Injury Lawyers

We sympathize with our clients and understand the physical harm and financial costs related to serious and catastrophic personal injuries. We apply our experience and skill to seek full and fair compensation for clients who have been seriously injured, including damages for medical expenses, lost wages, loss of consortium, and pain and suffering.

Our personal injury lawyers have the legal skill and courtroom experience needed to successfully pursue lawsuits for serious injury and wrongful death caused by someone else's negligence and carelessness. Our Providence law firm handles a large number of varied personal injury claims, including:

Motor Vehicle Accidents: We help people who have been injured in truck accidents, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, and pedestrian and bike accidents. Whether a loved one was killed in a head-on collision caused by a drunk driver, or you suffered a back and neck injury after your car was rear ended, we will fight to protect your rights and recover the financial resources you need after your own serious injury or the death of a family member.

Dog Bites and Animal Attacks: Dog bites can result in physical, emotional and psychological injury and even death. Deep puncture wounds, permanent disfigurement, and fear of dogs often result. If you or your child was bitten by a dog, which was not confined in an enclosure, you are entitled to damages for your injuries under Rhode Island's dog bite law. In Rhode Island, owners and keepers of dogs are strictly liable for damages caused by their dog, if the dog was not in an enclosure. You do not have to prove that the owner or keeper was negligent or knew that the dog was vicious. In the event that a dog attacks and injures someone a second time, the person who is injured is entitled to double damages.

Premises Liability: We represent individuals who are injured as a result of dangerous conditions on someone else's property. Examples of premises liability cases include injuries resulting from falls caused by slipping or tripping on a slippery floor, uneven pavement, debris in the aisles or other hazard. Slip and falls often occur in parking lots, apartment buildings, grocery stores, shopping centers and other retail establishments. Our attorneys also help crime victims who were assaulted in stairwells, parking garages, and other premises because the property owner or manager failed to take adequate security measures.

Boating Accidents: The personal injury lawyers at Robinson & Clapham help people injured in boating accidents. Whether you were thrown from the boat as a result of a careless or drunk boat driver, or you were injured by a boat which ran into your jet-ski, we will take the time to investigate your boating accident to determine liability and fault. We work hard to hold negligent boaters responsible for the injuries they cause.

Construction Site Accidents: If you were injured in crane accident, fall, ladder accident, explosion, or other type of construction site accident in Rhode Island, our lawyers will be happy to evaluate your potential claim. If someone other than your employer was negligent, we will pursue full and fair compensation for your injuries from the contractor, subcontractor, or company responsible for your injury.
