Attorney Justin D. Brandel is a litigator who takes his duty to his clients very seriously. Cases involving being hit by a taxi tend to be complex with regard to liability.

A full investigation into the facts may include:

• A full review of police reports
• Interview of eyewitnesses
• Investigation of the accident scene
• Collecting and reviewing any video evidence
• Identifying the liable party(ies) and their insurers
• Calling upon professional resources such as medical experts, accident reconstruction experts, and financial experts to assist
