One specialty at Degan, Blanchard & Nash is negligence, personal injury or wrongful death defense. Personal injury claims can harm company or individual reputations and become financially damaging.

Personal injury occurs when an individual suffers physical or mental injury, including wrongful death, due the actions or negligence of another party. Personal injury can be caused by medical malpractice, automobile accidents, character defamation, or product defects. Negligence relates to legal responsibility. The party who the court determines legally responsible for the injury is considered negligent and may be required to pay damages, including compensation for lost income, property or reputation, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death lawsuits are those that involve the unnecessary death of a person caused by the conduct of another, often in the context of a personal injury suit.
