Why Injured People Choose Skipper Law

When you hire an injury lawyer in Glen Burnie, you need more than we fight for you. You need a team that documents the full impact of your injuries, challenges low settlement offers, and is prepared to file suit when the insurer won’t negotiate fairly.

Skipper Law handles personal injury matters as part of a broader Maryland civil litigation practice, with experience presenting cases before Maryland judges and juries. That trial-ready approach shapes how we investigate claims, evaluate offers, and prepare evidence so insurers take your case seriously.

What To Do After An Accident

  • Get medical care first. Call 911 for emergencies and get evaluated promptly, even if symptoms feel manageable.
  • Report the incident. Car crash: request a police report. Fall or business injury: notify management and ask for an incident report.
  • Document what you can. Photos of vehicles, hazards, visible injuries, and the surrounding area can matter later.
  • Get witness information. Names and contact details can help confirm what happened.
  • Be careful with insurance statements. Don’t give a recorded statement or sign documents before you understand your injuries and your rights.
  • Talk to an attorney early. Early guidance can help preserve evidence and prevent avoidable mistakes.

How Our Glen Burnie Injury Team Helps

We start by evaluating liability and damages based on the facts, your medical treatment, and how the injury affects your work and daily life. We review the documents you already have, then obtain key records such as medical charts, billing, imaging, and accident or incident reports.

We also handle insurer communications, demand documentation, and settlement negotiations. If a fair agreement is not possible, we can file a lawsuit and pursue the claim through the appropriate Maryland trial court process.

Types of Injury Cases We Handle in and Around Glen Burnie

A personal injury claim can come from many situations. If you’re not sure whether your accident qualifies, the issue is usually whether someone else’s negligence caused your injuries.

Common cases include:

  • Car accidents (rear-end crashes, intersection collisions, distracted driving)
  • Truck and commercial vehicle accidents
  • Pedestrian and bicycle accidents
  • Slip and fall/premises liability (unsafe floors, poor lighting, unmarked hazards)
  • Dog bites and animal attacks
  • Wrongful death claims (fatal injuries caused by negligence)

If your matter overlaps with another legal area, our civil litigation background helps us identify the right strategy and the right defendants.

Compensation In Maryland Injury Cases

In a Maryland personal injury claim, damages generally focus on what the injury cost you and how it changed your life. 

Common categories include:

  • Medical expenses (ER care, follow-ups, imaging, therapy, prescriptions)
  • Lost income and reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering and other non-economic harms
  • Out-of-pocket costs related to the injury

If the insurer is pushing a quick settlement, the risk is accepting money before you understand your prognosis, future treatment needs, or how long you’ll be out of work.

Maryland Deadlines and Fault Rules That Can Affect Your Claim

  • Statute of limitations: Many Maryland civil injury cases must be filed within three years of when the claim accrues, though some cases have different rules.
  • Contributory negligence: Maryland generally follows the contributory negligence rule, which can bar recovery if you are found even slightly at fault. That makes early evidence collection and a careful liability analysis especially important.

Because deadlines and fault issues can decide the entire outcome, it helps to get legal advice before evidence disappears or statements get locked in.
