NO FEE UNLESS WE WIN
Personal Injury Attorney
When someone else’s negligence leaves you injured, you deserve full and fair compensation — for your medical bills, lost income, pain, and suffering. Keith Preston has fought for injury victims in Alabama and Florida for over 30 years. You pay nothing unless we recover for you.
Types of Cases We Handle
Personal injury law covers a wide range of accidents and injuries caused by the negligence of others. If you were hurt and someone else is responsible, you may have a claim for compensation.
Auto & Motorcycle Accidents
Car crashes are the leading cause of serious injury in Alabama. Insurance companies have attorneys working to minimize what they pay you — you need representation too. We handle liability investigations, uninsured motorist claims, and negotiate directly with insurance adjusters to maximize your recovery. If the insurer refuses a fair settlement, we take it to court.
Slip & Fall / Premises Liability
Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors. When a wet floor, broken stairway, poor lighting, or unmarked hazard causes your injury, the property owner may be liable. We document the dangerous condition, establish the owner’s knowledge, and build a clear liability case to support your damages claim.
Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Accidents involving 18-wheelers and commercial trucks are often catastrophic. These cases involve federal trucking regulations, hours-of-service logs, electronic data from the vehicle, and multiple potentially liable parties — the driver, the trucking company, and sometimes the cargo loader or vehicle manufacturer. We know how to pursue all available sources of recovery.
Wrongful Death
When negligence takes a life, Alabama law allows surviving family members to pursue a wrongful death claim. The damages recoverable in Alabama wrongful death cases are punitive in nature — designed to punish the wrongdoer — and can be substantial. We handle these deeply difficult cases with the care and determination your family deserves.
Dog Bites & Animal Attacks
Alabama follows a “one bite rule” combined with negligence principles for dog bite liability. If a dog owner knew or should have known their animal was dangerous, they are liable for injuries it causes. Dog bite injuries — particularly to children — can be severe and require extensive medical treatment. We pursue full compensation including scarring and emotional trauma.
Workplace Injuries
Workers’ compensation covers most on-the-job injuries, but if a third party’s negligence contributed to your injury, you may have a separate personal injury claim in addition to workers’ comp benefits. We evaluate every workplace injury case for third-party liability that can substantially increase your total recovery beyond what workers’ comp alone provides.
Defective Products
When a defective product — a vehicle component, a medical device, a dangerous medication — causes injury, the manufacturer and distributor may be strictly liable regardless of negligence. Product liability cases require early investigation before evidence is lost or the product is repaired. Contact us immediately if you believe a defective product caused your injuries.
Boating & Recreational Accidents
Alabama’s lakes and waterways see their share of boating accidents, ATV injuries, and recreational vehicle crashes. These cases often involve negligent operation, lack of safety equipment, or alcohol use. Liability can extend to boat operators, vessel owners, and sometimes marinas or rental companies. We pursue all responsible parties.
You Pay Nothing Unless We Win
No Upfront Costs
Personal injury cases at Preston Law Office are handled on a contingency fee basis. You pay no attorney’s fees and no case expenses upfront. We advance the costs of investigation, expert witnesses, court filings, and medical record collection.
We Win or You Owe Nothing
If we do not recover money for you, you owe us nothing — not a dollar in attorney’s fees, not reimbursement of case expenses. Our fee comes only from the recovery we obtain on your behalf, as a percentage explained clearly at your first consultation.
Aligned Incentives
Because we only get paid when you do, our interests are perfectly aligned with yours. We are motivated to maximize your recovery — not to bill hours or drag out your case. The bigger your settlement or verdict, the better the outcome for both of us.
How Your Case Works
1. Free Consultation
Tell us what happened. We review your case at no charge, give you an honest assessment of its merits, and explain your options. There is no obligation and everything you share is confidential.
2. Investigation
We gather evidence immediately — accident reports, photographs, witness statements, surveillance footage, and medical records. Early investigation is critical before evidence is lost or memories fade.
3. Demand & Negotiation
We build a comprehensive demand package documenting your injuries, treatment, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We negotiate directly with insurance companies to reach a fair settlement without requiring you to appear in court.
4. Trial if Needed
If the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we file suit and take your case to trial. We are prepared to try cases before Alabama and Florida juries. Insurance companies know this — and it improves your settlement leverage.
