Army Ranger Veteran-Owned Personal Injury Law Firm Announces Launch of Website

Dec. 26, 2010 - PRLog -- Stuart, Florida's Van Riper & Nies, a personal injury, auto accident and maritime injury  law firm is proud to announce the launch of its website http://www.stuartpersonalinjurylawyers.com.

According to Timothy Nies, the firm's lead personal injury attorney: "our firm relies on personal attention, open communication, hard work and trust in bringing justice to injured clients."

Van Riper & Nies Attorneys, P.A. represents individuals and families who have suffered an injury, or lost loved ones, due to the carelessness or reckless of others.  We leave no stone unturned in the prosecution of injury claims for our clients.

Van Riper and Nies is a unique plaintiff's law firm. Attorney, Tim Nies, is a military veteran and a proud lifetime member of the Disabled American Veterans.  When serving as an Airborne Ranger with the Army's 75th Ranger Regiment, he sustained a line-of-duty knee injury during a parachute mission.  Tim had to work hard to rehabilitate his knee; however, the injury ultimately caused his medical discharge from the United States Army. Tim, more than most personal injury attorneys, knows how it feels to suffer from and overcome a life-altering injury. Tim was lucky the U.S. Army had excellent surgeons and glad the VA was there to help him. Others are not so lucky.  After his military service, Tim began his legal career defending personal injury cases for insurance companies and large corporations, including Fortune 500 companies. He was a senior Casualty Trial Attorney for Marshall Dennehey, the largest, and arguably, the most respected insurance defense law firm in the world, with more than 450 attorneys.

Firm partner, Christian Van Riper, a lifelong resident of Stuart, and a former Department of Children & Famiilies (DCF) Investigator, was selected out of law school as a Law Clerk for the Florida Supreme Court; an honor very few attorneys in the State of Florida are selected for. Thereafter, Christian began his legal career as a Prosecutor for the State of Florida, where he prosecuted and tried multiple serious felony cases out of the State Attorney's Office in St. Lucie County.  Firm attorney Christian Van Riper states: "With a caseload in the 100s, I was able to hone his jury trial skills and ability to think and work under incredible pressure and time constraints."

The work and life experiences of the firm's trial attorneys affords the law firm unique and valuable insight into the lives and struggles of our clients, how their cases are defended, and with trial experience right here in the Treasure Coast.  Timothy Nies'  past experience representing insurance companies gives them credibility with insurance companies, and his knowledge of how insurance companies evaluate and value cases proves effective during the pendency of injury cases, at mediation and at trial.   To learn more about the firm's trial lawyers, we invite you to review our individual attorney biographies.http://www.stuartpersonalinjurylawyers.com/Our_Attorneys_...

Tim and Christian have known each other most of their lives and litigate and try all personal injury cases as an effective trial team.  This approach benefits our clients on two levels. First, both Tim and Christian are extremely familiar with the details of all our clients’ cases and are able to collaborate to effectively come up with a litigation and trial plan. Second, our clients are able to speak with an attorney about their cases at any time.  We are known for the personal attention we are able to provide to our clients. Our clients are usually pleasantly surprised to be able to speak us after hours and on the weekends

The firm's attorneys represent clients in all personal injury matters, including automobile and truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, premises liability, falls, inadequate security, construction site accidents, swimming pool injuries and drowning, product liability, boating injuries, personal watercraft injuries, Longshore & Harbor Workers’ claims, Defense Base Act claims, cruise ship injuries, crime victim injuries, medical malpractice, dog and animal bites, back injuries and wrongful death cases, among others.
