There are many times when clients come to us in the middle of a dispute under a prior lease agreement, loan agreement, real estate contract, stock purchase agreement, or many other contracts, that they either prepared themeselves or signed without first having an attorney review. Frequently, the dispute could have been easily avoided or resolved much easier (and cheaper) if an attorney had reviewed or prepared the contract in the first place.

Consider attorneys like an insurance policy, you pay a small fee up front to avoid larger fees down the road.

The hardest won rights are often the easiest to lose, and in the thickets of fine print surrounding every labor contract or credit card bill, all it takes is one careless signature to get roped into a deal with the devil—before you know it you've already compromised your right to a fair trial or t..…

Syregelas Law Obtains Confidential Settlement for Family of Store Manager Who Suffered Fatal Heart Attack at Work

Nicholas C. Syregelas and Peter A. Papoutsis recently finalized a confidential worker’s compensation settlement for the family of a retail store manager who suffered a fatal heart attack at work. It was uncontested that the worker had a significant history of hypertensive heart disease and sleep apnea. The Defense argued these conditions were the sole cause of the employee’s unpredictable heart attack and his death was unrelated to any of his job duties. Multiple experts gave opinions supporting this defense argument.

However, our firm was able to locate medical literature showing sleep apnea could worsen pre-existing hypertension and hypertensive heart disease. We then used the worker’s sleep study records and doctor’s recommendation to work a set schedule and contrasted those instructions with the employee’s time records which showed highly irregular hours. Our argument that these irregular hours were at least one cause of his eventual heart attack convinced the arbitrator to recommend that the employer Defendant make a settlement offer. Despite multiple experts expressing opinions in the Defense's favor, our theory and arguments prevailed leading to the favorable award.
