About the Goforth & Lucas Law Partnership
We concentrate obtaining the best possible result for our clients. Our practice focuses on aggressive representation in cases involving:
- Personal injury: Catastrophic injuries and death claims. We use expert witnesses to present the best possible case for your financial recovery, and bring in financial planning professionals to help you manage your settlement. Our personal injury practice focuses on motor vehicle and construction site accidents. We specialize in cases involving spinal surgery, disc replacement, herniated disc injuries, traumatic brain injury, CRPS and PTSD. To properly present your claim it is essential that you are cared for by only the most competent medical professionals. From the inception of your claim we see to it that your care is properly handled so as to assure your most ideal physical and economic recovery.
- Workers' compensation: Chemical and gas explosions, and construction site accidents. Many of the largest cases we have handled are third-party claims brought by the injured worker against negligent parties other than the employer. Don't wait. The best time to call us is at the very beginning of your workers' compensation case, or right after you've been injured. Under California law it is essential that you protect your legal rights. We will see to it the playing field is leveled and that you are not taken advantage of by the workers' compensation insurance companies and defense attorneys.
- Real estate or business litigation: We represent individuals or businesses as plaintiffs or defendants in a wide range of disputes such as real estate or mortgage fraud, breach of contract and foreclosure actions. We help property owners fight large lenders, such as JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America, which often seek to modify or wrongfully enforce the terms of a mortgage. Banks can't legally repossess your home if they use illegal or fraudulent procedures. The law strictly requires lenders to follow banking regulations, and to contact borrowers who are at risk of foreclosure to determine whether the homeowner qualifies for mortgage assistance.
