MAINLAND VISITORS


Since tourism is Hawaii's leading industry, it is not surprising that tourists can and do get injured while on vacation. If you or a family member have suffered an injury while visiting Hawaii, Winer Meheula & Devens LLP is prepared to assist you with your claim.

Winer Meheula & Devens LLP has represented mainland visitors from across the United States and Canada for injuries occurring on Oahu, Maui, Lanai, Molokai, Kauai and the Big Island. These cases include motor vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian accidents, slip and fall and trip and fall incidents at hotels and commercial establishments and cases involving beach and pool owner liability. Most recently, the firm obtained a $900,000 settlement for a Massachusetts man who was injured at a condominium in Maui.

In representing mainland visitors, the firm recognizes that it has a special responsibility to provide clients with information regarding Hawaii's laws and to work with your physicians and health care providers to facilitate medical treatment. This is especially true in motor vehicle accidents due to Hawaii's complex no fault laws.

If you have an attorney on the mainland or if you are a mainland attorney looking for local Hawaii counsel, Winer Meheula & Devens LLP will consider co-counsel arrangements. The firm has worked with attorneys from twenty states and five Canadian provinces. In addition, if you need a firm with foreign language capabilities, the attorneys and employees of Winer Meheula & Devens LLP speak Japanese, French and Spanish, and we have ready access to translators for many other languages.

The firm welcomes the opportunity to communicate with mainland visitors and to provide you with quality legal representation. Please contact us at winer@pacificlaw.com if you have any questions regarding Hawaii law.
