Santa Brings a Law Suit

For Attorneys

Since 1987 lawyers like you have trusted The Rusk Law Firm, P.C. (formerly Shields & Rusk, P.C.) with referrals to represent plaintiffs in all types of personal injury and wrongful death claims.

We work hard, we work smart, we get great results—$100 million+ in settlements and verdicts—and we pay substantial referral fees.

There’s another good reason to refer serious litigation matters to us, too. Through our cases, we successfully fight for changes in policies and procedures that can prevent future harm. We have succeeded in getting warning labels reworded and in establishing fatigue-reducing limits on the number of hours a nurse can work in an ICU.

Making a difference... one case at a time^SM is more than a slogan for us; it’s the way we approach each case. We strive to bring something good out of a tragedy, and by working with defense attorneys we have negotiated policy changes in the areas of manufacturing, health care, nursing home care, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals and commercial trucking.

It’s this last area—commercial trucking—where we have been most active recently. Our team canvasses the scene, preserves evidence, and reconstructs the accident to show clearly what went wrong. It’s impossible to underestimate the value of this early work in securing the best possible outcome for plaintiffs. It’s what allows our trial lawyers to build a solid and convincing case.

Because of our record of success, we get most of our work by referral from other attorneys. You can trust us to do excellent work for your clients in cases of wrongful death or serious injury. Our referral fee structure is flexible, so you can participate in the case at the level you feel best represents your client’s interests. Please give us a call at 512-476-7600.
