Joseph N. Casas — The Casas Law Firm
Our Firm Philosophy
01
Big Firm Power.
Small Firm Feel.
6 attorneys licensed across California, Illinois, Texas, Florida, New York, and Washington D.C. National reach through a powerful network of local attorneys and strategic alliances. We routinely go toe-to-toe against the largest law firms and insurance companies in the country — and win.
02
A Focus on Client Rights.
Over 50 years of collective experience across private and public sectors. JAG prosecutors, in-house counsel, insurance counsel, criminal defense attorneys, and personal injury lawyers — all now focused on one thing: representing plaintiffs against those who trample on their rights, life, and liberty.
03
100% Virtual
Since 2010.
We were virtual before virtual was cool. Since 2010, The Casas Law Firm moved away from traditional brick & mortar to a fully virtual presence — cutting costs and passing the savings to our clients. Courts across the country are catching up. We were already there.

Personal Injury

When You're Hurt,
We Fight for You.

When someone else's negligence causes you serious injury, the physical, emotional, and financial consequences can be life-altering. Insurance companies move fast to minimize what they pay — and they count on injured victims not knowing their rights or their claim's full value.

The Casas Law Firm represents injury victims against insurance companies, corporations, and negligent parties. Our trial lawyers have gone up against major insurance carriers and won — in both settlement negotiations and at trial.

We handle:

Automobile and trucking accidents
Catastrophic injuries and permanent disability
Premises liability and slip and fall
Insurance claim denials and bad faith
Product liability and defective equipment

Wrongful Death

Justice for
Those You've
Lost.

When a loved one is killed due to someone else's negligence or wrongful conduct, a wrongful death claim allows surviving family members to seek compensation for their loss. These cases require immediate action — evidence must be preserved, witnesses identified, and claims filed within strict legal deadlines.

The Casas Law Firm handles wrongful death claims with the experience and sensitivity these cases demand. We pursue full compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, loss of companionship, and the pain and suffering endured by surviving family members.

We represent families in:

Fatal automobile and trucking accidents
Workplace fatalities and construction accidents
Medical malpractice resulting in death
Defective product liability
Premises liability and negligent security
