Because of our close relationship with insurers, we can often resolve your case with a minimum of out of pocket costs. We actively work toward creative solutions. Our attorneys can work to resolve your legal issue effectively and quickly. At Unis and Associates, PLC, we offer effective representation in many practice areas, including the following:

Wrongful Death: Settlements in wrongful death cases vary greatly, and are determined by a number of factors. These include chiefly the amount of guilt to be placed on the person accused of being responsible for the victim's wrongful death. Damages awarded may take into account for loss of future earnings, work-related benefits, medical and funeral expenses, compensation for pain and suffering and more.

Auto Accidents: Sometimes drivers are preoccupied or not paying attention to their driving. It may be a cloudy or rainy day and their ability to drive may become impaired. This is no reason for you to suffer through the pain of a car accident. You may incur expensive medical bills including surgery, physical therapy and chiropractic care. Many of our clients are immediately stuck with no transportation. They need a rental car. They need to get medical treatment and they cannot get the help they need. That is why each car accident attorney wants to go to work for you.

Motorcycle Accidents: The motorcycle accident attorneys at Unis & Associates, PLC are dedicated and experienced attorneys who will fight for the highest possible compensation for you. At Unis & Associates, PLC, we have successfully handled numerous motorcycle accident cases. Whatever injury you may have suffered during a motorcycle accident, from a soft tissue injury to paralysis, we can help you recover damages such as medical bills, lost earnings, and pain and suffering. We have access to medical experts, accident reconstruction teams, and others who can help us build a compelling case.

Head & Brain Injury: Unis & Associates, PLC is committed to improving life for clients and helping them move forward after the accident. We can prepare a life care plan for the victim that accounts for future medical care and equipment, replacement of lost earning potential, vocational rehabilitation, physical therapy, home care, and other needs. In presenting the case to a jury or an insurance settlement conference, we can assemble a Day in the Life video showing the client's former life, daily struggles, and progress. This powerful tool demonstrates both the life changing effects of a traumatic brain injury and the client's will to get better.

18 Wheeler Accidents: Did you know that every 15 minutes a person is killed or injured in a truck accident? Did you know that big rig truck accidents continue to increase? Over 500,000 trucking accidents occur every year. Of these, approximately 6,000 trucking accidents result in fatalities. In fact, 18-wheeler trucking accidents account for one of every eight traffic deaths.

ATV Accidents: Our Irvine all terrain vehicle (ATV) accident lawyers and recreational vehicle (RV) accident lawyers represent clients who have suffered serious injuries in these types of accidents. These include off road vehicles and motor homes. With more and more people participating in off road activities and taking oversized vehicles on the roadways, there have been an increase in the number of significant injuries and deaths reported from these activities.

Boat & Watercraft Accidents: Depending on the body of water and the type of watercraft involved, the legal remedies available in boating accident cases vary significantly. Our boat accident lawyers have years of experience working with people injured in boating accidents. We know how to determine whether an injury claim should be pursued as a state negligence claim or under federal maritime or admiralty laws.

Serious Injury: We pride ourselves in fighting aggressively for victims of spinal cord injury, paralysis, paraplegia, quadriplegia, amputation, brain damage and other catastrophic injuries from any type of accident. We have vast resources at our disposal and will assign or retain the services of as many people(including Medical, Engineering, Economic, Disability, Forensic, Accident Reconstruction and other experts) and invest as much money as necessary to insure that they receive a prompt “full value” settlement for their injuries. We will also treat them with the utmost in care, compassion, patience and understanding at all times.

Product Liability: With over twenty years of combined trial practice, our products liability lawyers, Gerald Unis and others, have learned the best way to litigate personal injury cases. Our background in insurance defense has given us unique insight into the strategies of the opposing side. We are also well respected by insurance companies who know that if Unis & Associates has brought the claim forward, it is serious. We can also handle cases involving complex medical issues due to one of our attorneys' academic background in the sciences.
