Vicki L Stolberg
Representing injured individuals for over 40 years.
Over the past 40 years, one thing that hasn't changed is the firm's focus on client service. Stolberg & Townsend, P.A. continues to focus its practice on protecting injured and disabled individuals, with heavy emphasis on the areas of Personal Injury, Auto Accidents, Workers' Compensation, Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation, Social Security Disability, and State Disability Retirement. Our attorneys' backgrounds and experience include medical malpractice and insurance defense work.
* Automobile Accidents, Personal Injury, and Wrongful Death:
Much of our practice is devoted to representing people injured due to the negligence of others, such as automobile, motorcycle, and pedestrian accidents; dog bites, slip and falls, etc. In the event of injury and death due to the negligence of another, we represent individuals and their surviving dependents. If you have a medical malpractice or nursing home claim, we can assist you. We explore all avenues of liability and coverage to obtain maximum compensation for all of our clients. Please contact us for a free consultation regarding any negligence claim.
* Workers' Compensation:
Under Florida law, employees injured on the job are entitled to specific benefits such as medical care and lost wages. We represent employees and their surviving dependents to ensure they receive the maximum compensation and the proper medical treatment they are entitled to under the law. We can help our clients with a variety of problems involving Workers' Compensation such as denied and disputed claims, payment delays, inadequate medical treatment and other difficulties. Our thorough investigation of each case includes consideration of not only Workers' Compensation coverage, but also Social Security Disability, liability of parties other than the employer, the Americans with Disabilities Act and other potential benefits. This has led to specialized experience in these areas, as well as Personal Injury litigation.
* Social Security Disability:
Federal law provides monthly Social Security Disability benefits for individuals who suffer from a long-term, major disability that prevents employment. If you are injured or disabled and unable to work, we will prepare and try the case before an administrative law judge, and to the Social Security Appeals Court, if necessary.
* Longshore & Harbor Workers' Compensation:
Under Federal law, employees who are injured while at sea or in related work areas such as a wharf, dry dock, or terminal are entitled to compensation. While the benefits are similar to general Workers' Compensation, the legal details and coverage differ from those provided by state law. In Tampa, where thousands of workers are employed at the nation's eighth busiest port, this is an important legal specialty.
* General Services:
In addition to the firm's areas of specialty, we can assist clients with the writing of wills, simple real estate and commercial contracts, powers of attorney, and general litigation. For complex matters involving other areas of law, we will be happy to recommend and co-counsel with qualified attorneys who specialize in the appropriate field. We hope you will consider us your attorneys for any legal need. Please feel free to call us with any questions you may have.
