Maximizing Settlements, Minimizing Stress
While firearms can be a valuable tool for self-defense, a gunshot injury can result in life-changing injuries or even death, all in the blink of an eye. Gunshot survivors may suffer severe injuries including loss of blood, spinal cord injuries, and/or severe damage to internal organs. Firearms are not toys and should not be handled by anyone who is not trained, experienced, and capable.
After an accident occurs, one of the most important things you can do is find the right legal representation. You deserve an experienced attorney who is able to fight for your justice with dedication. Don’t wait — the path to recovery begins with a call to Montlick.

Montlick Fights For You
If you’ve suffered from a firearm accident. Let Montlick help you get the compensation you deserve.
Accidental shootings often involve negligence by a firearm owner who fails to take a gun safety course or does not take appropriate steps to safeguard one’s gun from curious children. If a gun is not secured in a gun safe and/or equipped with a trigger lock, tragedies can occur because children do not understand and fully appreciate the danger posed by firearms that are not secured.
The type of gunshot injury suffered depends on a number of factors including the type of gun, bullet and the angle the bullet enters the body. If the bullet strikes a person but does not penetrate the skin, the injury is referred to as a grazing injury. When the bullet enters the body by penetrating the skin and becoming lodged in the body, it is called a penetrating gunshot wound. When a bullet both enters the body and also exits the body at another point, the injury is called a perforating wound.
