Types of Injury Cases We Handle

DC Personal Injury Lawyer
When someone else’s actions cause you harm, you deserve compensation. Personal injury law covers situations where negligence, recklessness, or deliberate misconduct results in physical, emotional, or financial losses.
What makes personal injury cases different? Unlike other legal matters, these claims focus specifically on proving fault and quantifying damages from accidents or intentional harm. The key question is: Did someone else’s actions directly cause your injuries?
At Regan Zambri Long, we’ve spent three decades building cases that hold wrongdoers accountable. Our attorneys know how to document injuries, calculate true costs, and present compelling evidence that secures maximum compensation.
Your case evaluation is free. We work on contingency, so you pay nothing unless we recover damages. Call today to discuss your specific situation and learn what your claim may be worth.
Aviation Accidents
When tragedy strikes from the skies, lives change forever. Aviation accidents can devastate families in an instant, leaving victims with catastrophic injuries, overwhelming medical bills, and emotional trauma. These disasters often result from corporate negligence, maintenance failures, or pilot error that could have been prevented. Major airlines and manufacturers may deploy teams of defense attorneys to minimize their liability, leaving victims struggling for justice.
If you or a loved one has been affected by an aviation disaster, you deserve aggressive representation from our Washington, DC aviation accident lawyers who understand the intricate laws governing air travel accidents and who will fight tirelessly to secure the maximum compensation you deserve.
Car Accidents
A car accident can turn your world upside down in seconds. Beyond the physical pain, you’re probably wondering how you’ll pay bills, when you’ll feel normal again, and whether you’ll fully recover. Over 22,000 car accidents are reported annually in the DC metro area. Many of these accidents result in catastrophic injuries, which can have a serious impact on an injury victim’s life. You could be facing thousands of dollars in medical bills, extended recovery time away from work, physical pain, and emotional trauma. Most Washington DC auto accidents result from driver negligence – texting while driving, drunk driving, fatigued driving, or reckless behavior behind the wheel.

Because of their size, commercial truck accidents in the DC Metro area cause some of the most devastating injuries on our roadways.
