PERSONAL INJURY TOPICS

GET HELP AFTER A MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT

According to studies, every year, hundreds of people in Connecticut are killed in traffic accidents — thousands more are injured.

If you or a loved one was injured in a car, truck or motorcycle accident, you may feel as if your entire world is coming apart. Severe injuries cause physical pain and suffering and can take you off the job, leaving you and your family in financial distress.

At Gregory R. Shettle, LLC, we know what you are going through, and we are here to help. For over 27 years, Attorney Greg Shettle has helped people in Glastonbury and throughout central Connecticut rebuild their lives after accidents.

KNOW YOUR FULL INJURIES BEFORE YOU TALK TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY

Injuries from car, truck and motorcycle accidents can be minor to severe. The problem is, you don't know the severity of your injury unless you've gotten medical treatment. Many people think they have minor whiplash only to find out later they actually have a slipped disk and need surgery.

Before negotiating with insurers, Attorney Shettle makes sure you've gotten proper medical care, and that the severity and extent of your injuries is known. His goal is to get you the compensation you need to treat the full nature and extent of your injuries, pay your bills and support your family, and compensate you for your pain and suffering.

DOG ATTACKS

DOG ATTACKS LEAVE SERIOUS, SOMETIMES PERMANENT, INJURIES

Every year, millions of Americans are bitten by dogs. Hundreds of thousands of those attacked require medical attention, and some are even killed.

In 2014, 42 people in the U.S. died as a result of dog attacks; 27 of these attacks involved pit bulls.
If you were attacked by a dog, you may be unsure where to turn for help. Attorney Shettle will handle all of the legal aspects of your claim so you can focus on what matters most: your health.

COMMON INJURIES CAUSED BY DOG BITES

Dogs have powerful jaws that can cause serious damage. The larger, more aggressive the breed — such as pit bulls, Rottweilers and mastiffs — the more severe the injury. Common injuries include:

Unfortunately, many people continue to suffer even after their physical wounds have healed. After a vicious dog attack, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other emotional issues can develop. Dog phobias, nightmares, fear of going outside and other symptoms can interfere with daily life.

Attorney Shettle is committed to getting you the resources you need to move forward with your life. This includes compensation for your:

Current and future medical bills
Lost wages and any reduction in earning capacity
Physical pain and suffering
Emotional trauma

DEALING WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES

Insurance companies have one goal: getting you to settle your injury claim for as little as possible. Attorney Shettle knows this because in the past insurance companies hired him to defend against personal injury claims.

His experience and knowledge now work in your favor. He knows what insurance companies look at when evaluating claims and he builds strong injury claims that maximize your right to compensation.
