Tara L Helms Attorney

DUI/DWI
Drunk drivers have impaired judgment, delayed reflexes and poor decision-making skills. Their behavior on the road can be unpredictable and dangerous to other drivers, motorcyclists and pedestrians. In a car accident case involving drunk driving, the most important issue will be proving whether or not the responsible driver was legally impaired.
Wrongful Death
If your loved one has died and you file a wrongful death claim, you are only entitled to claim punitive damages.
Traffic Violations
Speeding. The faster any vehicle is traveling the greater the chance of getting into an accident, and the more severe the injuries that would result from that accident.
Sex Crimes
As an aspect of premises liability, negligent security speaks to the responsibility of a property owner to provide adequate security for guests or tenants to prevent violent attacks such as rape or robbery. If guests or tenants are injured in such an attack, they may be able to hold the property owner liable for their injuries.
Robbery
Assault
Hit and Run
Hit and run accidents. Alabama law requires drivers who are involved in a traffic accident to remove their vehicle from the roadway when it is possible, give their contact information to the other drivers involved in the crash, and to render aid to anyone who is injured. There are criminal penalties for hit and run drivers when they are caught, but if they are never caught, the person who was injured in an accident caused by a hit and run driver may need the assistance of a Huntsville car accident lawyer in pursuing a claim against Â his or her own insurance policy.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Since 1995, I have concentrated my practice on representing individuals and the families of individuals who have been harmed or injured as a result of the wrongful acts of others. While practicing in both state and federal courts throughout the country, I have litigated cases involving issues of products liability, tractor-trailer and automobile collisions, dangerous roadways, mass torts, fires and explosions, business disputes, as well as defective pharmaceutical drugs, medical devices and household products.

Workers Compensation
Employees who work for an employer with five or more employees whose business is covered by the worker's compensation law, and who are injured in an accident which arose "out of and in the course of employment," and who have given proper notice of the accident to their employer may be eligible for workers' compensation benefits.

Premises Liability
The experienced Huntsville premises liability lawyers at Martin & Helms know what it takes to hold negligent property owners responsible when visitors are injured on their property because of negligent conditions. You may schedule a no obligation free consultation to discuss your case and receive legal guidance on how you might proceed. You will never pay attorney fees until we recover compensation for you.
Construction Litigation
Fires and explosions â€“ Injuries from fires can be catastrophic. If you suffer burns, respiratory injuries, or losses from a fire caused by defective appliances, construction defects, building code violations, or other negligence, we can help.
Property Damage
Depending on the nature of your case, you may be entitled to economic losses (medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and other quantifiable losses) and non-economic losses (pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and other less-tangible assets). In some cases, you may also be entitled to punitive damages: damages designed to punish egregious conduct, recklessness, and/or wrongdoing.

Personal Injury
If you suffered injury, or a loved one was killed, in an accident caused by a drunk driver, the experienced and dedicated Huntsville personal injury attorneys at Martin & Helms can help. We work with you to hold all negligent parties responsible, and seek the maximum possible compensation for your injuries, damages and losses.
