Serious accident, catastrophic injury, workers compensation, alcohol-related injury, and wrongful death law with a heavy emphasis on catastrophic injury and wrongful death litigation describes the majority of the limited cases accepted by The Faulk Law Office.

We do not represent drunk drivers; we sue them and the taverns, bars, beer and liquor stores that sell them alcohol when they’re already intoxicated or underage. Cases against taverns, bars and beer stores for wrongful death and personal injury claims are known as “dram shop” cases. Mike Faulk has successfully prosecuted several dram shop cases for innocent third parties who have suffered catastrophic personal injuries or death and have fallen victim to careless bartenders, bar maids, beer store clerks, and the drunk drivers to whom they sell more alcohol after the drunk driver is already visibly intoxicated. This is a highly technical sub-specialty of civil litigation.

At the Faulk Law office, we're not just in the business of litigating. We believe in the truth of the old expression "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." In addition to assisting in teaching locally offered classes in alcohol server training programs, to help prevent alcohol-related injuries Attorney Mike Faulk offers twenty-minute programs to civic groups and bueinesses in the alocohol sales business, one-hour lectures and four hour seminars to businesses wishing to supplement alcohol server training for employees, and similar legal seminars for attorneys both prosecuting and defending dram shop cases.

Litigation of all types is our focus.

Standard legal services such as simple estates, deeds, wills, contracts, leases, etc. are also provided; but on a more limited basis.
