About this firm

The Ernst Law Group is a Plaintiff Trial Lawyer firm. Don Ernst has been leading his team of attorneys for more than thirty five years. The following explain the different types of law, and why you may have a claim. Not all law firms are the same, especially Plaintiff trial firms, or more specifically, personal injury law firms. Your choice in representation directly affects the amount you will receive in compensation for how you have been harmed. We understand the difference your representation makes in the outcome of your case.

Many firms take a lot of cases, rendering them unable to provide the attention necessary to get the highest results for their clients. The Ernst Law Group is a Trial Firm. This means that we will take your case to trial to get you adequate compensation; we consistently get much more for our clients then many other firms. This takes time, a lot of financial resources, and requires the highest level of skill.

We are a Plaintiff Trial Firm

We represent only the injured parties against insurance companies or large corporations. We never do defense work. We never will. The defense wants to minimize the amount of money given to our clients, even when they are responsible. We never will fight for the corporate bottom line. We fight for the individual who is trying to put their life back together. We specialize in serious personal injury. We hire the best experts and pay all of the costs. You pay nothing and no fee unless we win. Why is this? We are confident in our ability to prove your case. Our firm has the expertise that you can count on.

When someone is taken from your life because of wrongdoing of a corporation, there is nothing you can do to get them back. A corporation should have to account for the loss it made you suffer. Corporations only respond to their bottom line: money. Punish the corporation, and we are all taking steps to make sure the wrong doing is less likely to happen again, to anyone else.
