Personal Injury
Personal Injury claims can arise from a number of different types of incidents and accidents. Mike Koch is a founding partner of Brooks Koch & Sorg and has represented people who have been involved in automobile and truck collisions, medical malpractice claims, motorcycle crashes, slip and fall claims, burn injuries, dog bites, civil battery (non-consented medical care), negligent infliction of emotional distress claims and on-the-job injuries.
Motor Vehicle Accidents. With the fast pace and high volume of traffic on many of today’s roads, the number of traffic crashes seems to rise in Indiana almost every year. To make matters worse, pervasive cell phone use while driving has undoubtedly contributed to driver inattentiveness and a resulting increase in crashes. Mike will help you work through the complexities of these claims, working with your health and automobile insurance carriers to get your related medical expenses paid and helping you present a well-documented, comprehensive claim for damages arising from your injuries. When you are tired of dealing with insurance companies after a crash, call Mike direct at (317) 418-2683. He will take over and remove that stressor from your life. When you have been injured in a crash involving an automobile, motorcycle, truck, or as a pedestrian struck by a motorized vehicle, you likely need representation to receive fair compensation for your injuries. Insurance companies have attorneys working for them; why shouldn't you?
Medical Malpractice. Mike Koch also represents victims of medical malpractice, or medical negligence. His clients have included people who experienced surgical errors (such as improper technique and retained surgical devices / materials), unnecessary surgeries, wrong site surgeries, undiagnosed / untreated infections, IV infiltrations and extravasations, medication overdoses, dispensation of the wrong medication, mistakes interpreting x-rays, and many other medical issues. Mike also represents parents and children have experienced birth injuries resulting from prenatal / labor and delivery errors. Call Mike at (317) 418-2683.
Worker’s’ Compensation. When a person experiences an on-the-job injury, Indiana law provides a specific means for handling these claim through the Indiana Workers’ Compensation Board. Mike Koch handles these claim, as well. However, a work-related injury claim oftentimes involves a third-party liability claim that could provide compensation over and above what may be provided under the Worker’s Compensation laws. Mike investigates these claims and, when appropriate, pursues these third-party claims on behalf of our clients.
Business Law
Business Formation. We start with business formation services, working with you to decide which type of organization is the best fit for your particular circumstances. We help clients create business entities like LLCs, partnerships, S-corporations, and some C-corporations.
Business Transactions. We focus on making your business transactions a success, including the purchase or sale of existing businesses, or business asset purchases and sales. We review and draft commercial leases, business agreements and contracts, such as buy-sell agreements, shareholder agreements, employment agreements, non-disclosure agreements. We also advise clients on maintaining business records and required filings.
Business Litigation. Sometimes keeping your business profitable involves litigation; we can and do handle that, as well. Our experienced business litigation attorneys can and will diligently pursue your interests in court.
We also address other legal matters as necessary for our clients. Some of the issues have included mold remediation, real estate, landlord and tenant law, and estate planning (preparing Wills, Trusts and Advance Directives).
