CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE
COMMITMENT TO JUSTICE FOR SURVIVORS
As a young attorney Chad Bowers was involved in a number of serious cases against religious and other institutions including an award of nearly $10,000,000.00 for several survivors almost 20 years ago. Shortly thereafter Chad Bowers expanded his practice to other institutions and has represented survivors in matters against the a number of institutions including;
- The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
- various Catholic Dioceses
- Jehovahs' Witnesses
- Boy Scouts of America
- mainline protestant and fundamentalist denominations
- Individual Perpetrators, high net worth individuals
- Schools, Athletic Teams and sports associations
- other youth serving organizations
For nearly two decades, child sexual abuse survivors have represented a significant portion of Chad Bowers practice who has represented survivors from almost every state in the country. While representing hundreds of survivors Chad Bowers has seen first hand the devastating and lifelong effects for survivors of sexual abuse as children.
While many of the settlement amounts involved in these matters are confidential, without violating any of the agreements Chad Bowers has recovered well into the tens of millions on behalf of child sexual abuse survivors from churches, private individuals, youth serving organizations and private businesses.
The psychological literature demonstrates many survivors will never tell their stories. The statute of limitations for child sexual abuse claims against institutions and individuals are constantly changing and many state legislative bodies are only acknowledging that many survivors only able to tell their stories much later in life. Every survivor has his or her own course to follow in dealing with the horrific consequences of child abuse. Chad Bowers has numerous former clients who are willing to talk about their experiences in holding institutions accountable for their abuse and if and when a survivor of child sexual abuse is ready to pursue justice and accountability from those responsible for their abuse our firm is always honored to try and help survivors get justice.
DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS
INJURIES CAUSED BY AUTOMOTIVE AND OTHER DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS
Chad A. Bowers has been representing clients with catastrophic injuries from defective products for almost two decades. He has represented clients in actions against almost all automotive manufacturers and a number of automotive suppliers. In 2007 he and his co-counsel obtained and later collected what was then Nevada's then largest product defect verdict in excess of $30,000,000.00 against Goodyear Tire and Rubber. We have litigated claims and obtained settlements or verdicts for manufacturers and distributors including
- Ford Motor Company
- General Motors
- Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co.
- Chrylser Motor Company
- Bridgestone Tire Company
- Subaru
- Polaris
- BMW
- other vehicle and parts suppliers and manufacturers
Chad has also represented those injured by defective products and devices unrelated to the automotive industry. The amount of these settlement agreements are protected by confidentiality agreements but Chad has extensive experience across a number of different types of products. Defective product cases are expensive, technical and complicated. Most personal injury lawyers are unfamiliar with the technical nature of product defect and the skill set required to successfully recover from manufacturers. Chad has nearly two decades of experience obtaining significant sums for catastrophically injured clients. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your product claim and discuss your claim with Chad.
WRONGFUL DEATH AND CATASTROPHIC INJURIES
Whether as a result of product defect claims, automobile accidents, homeowner liability or other causes, catastrophic injuries and wrongful death raise issues that require an attorney with specialized background and skills. Mr. Bowers has successfully represented individuals, as well as those surviving relatives, who were catastrophically injured or died as a result of negligent, reckless or intentional action by another person or corporation. Medicare, medical liens, taxes, future care and other expenses all dramatically reduce what might appear to be a fair settlement. Prior to settling a claim for any catastrophic injury or death, you should have the information you need to understand how much you will actually be left with to care for yourself or your family.
TRUCKING AND AUTOMOTIVE ACCIDENTS
Additional Information
As a young man Chad had a family member who was prominent expert in the truck transportation field who worked as an expert witness for some of the nation’s foremost plaintiff’s firms. As a teenager he recalls detailed discussions with this trucking industry expert on traffic patters and the economics of the industry as well as specific cases where he used manifests, tax and fuel records and bills of lading to prove that driver logs had been fabricated. Chad’s unique personal history with these cases brings an edge to the often significant cases that he has litigated in state and federal court.
Automobile accidents are the primary cause for the vast majority of personal injuries and although most injuries are minor it may take days or weeks for an injury to fully manifest. If you fail to promptly obtain a lawyer you may miss your opportunity to bring a claim. You may be entitled to compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other hardship. Our office can also arrange for you get immediate medical care from physicians, chiropractors, physical therapists or other medical providers and handle all of the necessary financial and insurance arrangements related to your accident. Mr. Bowers has been able to negotiate settlements for accident victims in a variety of cases since 2001.
