David L. Savage david@savlaw.com In civil cases, handcuffs are not involved… we represent the plaintiff, the individuals who stand up to wrongdoing and to the persons or entities that have caused them harm. We know that there's more than meets the eye with every individual - that people are not file numbers or claim numbers... What we do will have ripple effects throughout their lives. Some people don't bring a claim because of a personal or political ideology, or because they lack confidence. We answer questions and step in as an advocate. We document the injury and its impact, and determine how we can assure full compensation for our clients. Practice areas: Civil litigation, including personal injury and wrongful death, in State and Federal courts. Also general business litigation.
