FAMILY LAW:
Family Law involves more than a couple obtaining a divorce.  Children, grandparents, and others are also affected, and a wide variety of concerns must be addressed.  Dealing with these diverse situations requires more than technical knowledge in an attorney - practical experience and sensitivity are equally important.

Family law issues can be some of the most emotionally-charged experiences of a person’s life.  Choose an attorney and legal team with experience, sensitivity and objectivity to help you get through this difficult time and protect the assets and rights you have worked hard to maintain.

PERSONAL INJURY:
Personal injuries resulting from unfortunate events such as car accidents often cause catastrophic and life-changing health problems. CANAN LAW attorneys are committed to holding accountable those responsible for causing these injuries.  Our attorneys focus our practice on representing injured victims and their families. Canan Law attorneys prosecute claims for careless driving, defective products, unsafe premises, and pedestrian and motorcycle accidents.

Canan Law accepts most Personal Injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means our attorneys get paid only if you recover. If you or a loved one have been the victim of personal injury due to another’s negligence, contact a Canan Law attorney for help.

WORKPLACE INJURY:
In almost every case, a worker who is injured on the job is entitled to be compensated for his or her injury, regardless of how the injury occurred. A lawyer knowledgeable in the facts and skilled in handling worker’s compensation claims can make sure that you are treated fairly at all phases of the worker’s compensation process. CANAN LAW Attorneys will help you receive your just compensation.

MEDICAL MALPRACTICE:
Medical malpractice caused by the negligence of a medical professional can result in a lifelong injury or even death. Canan Law attorneys can help.

Doctors, hospitals and nursing homes cannot always be trusted to provide adequate care to you and your family. If the standard of care has been breached, practitioners should be held responsible, and the patient or the family should recover damages.

Claims against health care providers may be proper when there is:
- Surgical error
- Failure to diagnose or treat
- Patient neglect
- Nursing home neglect
- Defective medical devices
- Elder abuse
- Prescription error
- Failure to obtain informed consent

WRONGFUL DEATH:
Commonly misconstrued with Medical Malpractice, Wrongful Death cases result in death from misconduct on the part of another person or company.  Our Firm takes an array of wrongful death situations/cases, including work-related accidents, car accidents, plane or aviation accidents, and sports-related accidents.

Our extensive expertise includes the drafting of complex Wills and Living Wills.
Estates:
- Work with clients to craft Wills and Antenuptial Agreements.
- Obtained a high six-figure award in a Will contest.

Too often in our society, a citizen’s civil rights are abused or violated.  Canan Law Attorneys will right the wrong by representing claims for gender-based discrimination, violations of First and Fourth Amendment rights, retaliation claims, false arrests, sexual harassment and violation of equal protection guarantees.
Civil Commercial:
- Recovered a six-figure arbitration award involving a commercial building contract dispute.
