Legal Services Available in Baltimore
Cohen, Snyder & Eisenberg, P.A. handles four main practice areas from its Baltimore office: personal injury, workers' compensation, Social Security Disability, and criminal defense. Each of these areas involves different legal procedures, deadlines, and strategies, so having representation that understands the specific type of claim you're pursuing matters.
Below is an overview of what each practice area covers and what Baltimore residents should know before moving forward with a claim or case.
Personal Injury Services
When someone is injured because of another person's negligence, Maryland law allows them to pursue compensation for medical bills, lost income, and other losses. The personal injury attorneys at Cohen, Snyder & Eisenberg, P.A. represent clients across a wide range of accident and injury types.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Car accidents make up a large share of personal injury claims in Baltimore, and the circumstances of each crash affect how a claim is handled. This includes rear-end collisions, accidents at intersections, and situations involving uninsured or underinsured drivers. Truck accidents present their own challenges, particularly when driver fatigue or negligent vehicle maintenance contributed to the crash. Motorcycle accidents, along with bicycle and pedestrian accidents, often involve serious injuries and require careful documentation of fault and damages. In the most tragic cases, a crash results in a wrongful death, and surviving family members may have the right to pursue a claim on behalf of their loved one.
Other Personal Injury Claims
Not every injury claim stems from a car crash. Premises liability cases arise when a property owner fails to maintain safe conditions, leading to incidents such as swimming pool injuries or other accidents on someone else's property. Products liability claims involve injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. Recreational vehicle accidents can also lead to significant injury claims. Across all of these case types, the severity of the injury plays a major role in the value and complexity of a claim. This includes spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, amputations, knee and shoulder injuries, broken bones, neck and back injuries, and scarring or disfigurement. Because these injuries can affect someone's ability to work and carry out daily activities, documenting the full extent of the harm is an important part of building a claim.
Workers' Compensation Services
Maryland workers who are injured on the job have the right to pursue workers' compensation benefits, but the process is not always straightforward. Cohen, Snyder & Eisenberg, P.A. helps Baltimore workers understand their rights after a workplace injury and assists with claims that have been delayed or denied.
Workplace injuries can happen in many ways, including ladder falls, industrial accidents, and fires or explosions. Some claims involve pre-existing conditions that were aggravated by work activities, which can complicate how an insurer evaluates the case. When a workplace injury results in death, surviving dependents may be able to pursue death and dependent claims.
The firm also assists with:
- Denied workers' compensation claims and the appeals and hearings process
- Workers' compensation settlements
- Coordinating workers' compensation with unemployment insurance or FMLA leave
- Fire and police heart, lung, and cancer presumption claims
- Workers' compensation for public safety employees and correctional officers
- Post-traumatic stress disorder claims related to work incidents
- Allegations of workers' compensation fraud
No two workplace injury claims are identical, and outcomes depend on the specific facts involved. An attorney cannot guarantee that a claim will be approved or that a particular settlement amount will be reached, but having someone familiar with the appeals and hearings process can help ensure a claim is presented as completely as possible.
Social Security Disability Services
Social Security Disability claims fall into two main categories: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). SSDI is available to individuals who have worked and paid into the Social Security system, while SSI is based on financial need rather than work history. Both programs require applicants to demonstrate that a qualifying impairment prevents them from performing substantial work.
What happens if my disability claim is denied?
A denial is common and does not necessarily mean the claim lacks merit. Applicants have the right to appeal, and the appeals process typically involves several stages, including reconsideration and a hearing before an administrative law judge. Cohen, Snyder & Eisenberg, P.A. helps Baltimore applicants understand why a claim may have been denied and what evidence is needed to strengthen an appeal.
How do I know if my condition qualifies?
The Social Security Administration evaluates whether a medical impairment meets specific criteria and significantly limits a person's ability to work. Because this determination relies heavily on medical documentation, applicants benefit from understanding what evidence is most relevant to their specific condition.
Criminal Defense Services
Being charged with a crime in Baltimore can affect employment, housing, and other areas of life, even before a case is resolved. Cohen, Snyder & Eisenberg, P.A. represents clients facing a range of criminal charges and helps them understand the process ahead.
Common cases handled by the firm include traffic violations, DWI and DUI charges, and related MVA hearings, which are administrative proceedings separate from criminal court that can affect driving privileges. Drug crime charges, including drug possession and marijuana possession, vary in severity depending on the substance and circumstances involved. Theft offenses and violent crimes such as assault and battery each carry different potential consequences depending on the specifics of the incident and the defendant's history.
Search and seizure laws, including those governing the search of digital devices like phones and computers, often play a central role in criminal cases. When law enforcement fails to follow proper procedure, evidence obtained improperly may be challenged. For individuals with older convictions, expungement may be available to remove certain records from public access, depending on the type of offense and how much time has passed.
No attorney can promise a dismissal, acquittal, reduced charge, or reduced sentence. What a defense attorney can do is review the evidence, identify procedural issues, and advocate for the best possible outcome given the facts of the case.
