YOU’VE GOT ONE SHOT AT COMPENSATION, MAKE IT COUNT.

Page 2: Farah & Farah Brochure

THE VISION TO SEE, THE FAITH TO BELIEVE, THE COURAGE TO DO.

Page 3: Farah & Farah Brochure

When you’ve suffered loss due to the

negligence of others, choosing an

experienced law firm is one of the most

critical decisions you can make. The

outcome of your case could profoundly

influence your recovery, both financially

and physically, for years to come.

Since 1979, our firm has tried many cases

involving auto accident, personal injury,

and insurance law. We’ve assisted injured

people and their families, all with one goal

in mind: maximizing recovery, no matter

what the claim.

OUR MISSION

Page 4: Farah & Farah Brochure

Every year, countless claims arise involving

physical injuries, wrongful death, property

damage and economic loss. The common

denominator in all three cases is negligence.

Our firm has a long track record of proving

negligence and achieving substantial

awards to compensate clients for pain and

suffering, grief, loss of income, economic

support, medical treatment and damaged

property. Farah & Farah is experienced in

getting you the medical benefits and

treatment you need - even when your

insurance company, HMO

or employer won’t pay. We can handle

denied payments for medical tests or future

therapy, unpaid Personal Injury Protection

(PIP) benefits, inadequately paid claims

for personal property losses and denied

disability benefits. We can also help

you decide whether to file a worker’s

compensation claim for injuries sustained

both at work and during non-work hours

and assist you in receiving Social Security

benefits to which you are entitled. The

bottom line is personal attention -

providing exactly the resources needed to

get you the justice you deserve. We’ll meet

with clients whenever it’s convenient and

wherever they are: in the hospital, at home

or in our offices. And, our fees are strictly

on a contingency basis: Whatever we get

paid comes out of the damages received.

We only get compensated if you do.

VIOXX LITIGATION Vioxx, an arthritis and acute pain medication, was the subject of significant litigationacross the country when a clinical trial showed a dramatic increase in patient risk of heart attacks, strokes,

or other cardiovascular events. In September, 2004, drug maker Merck announced a voluntary worldwide

withdraw of Vioxx. Only after Vioxx was approved by the FDA was it revealed that Merck and its own

scientist knew that the drug had the potential to harm patients. Eddie Farah and his team represented

victims of this dangerous drug and recently received a multi-million dollar settlement for their pain,

suffering, or loss of a loved one.

TOBACCO SETTLEMENT Farah & Farah has committed the firm's resources to pursuing tobacco lawsuits for those who were victimized by decades of deception and lies about the dangers of cigarette smoking.

When a major case against Big Tobacco was decertified in 2003, it allowed thousands of Florida smokers

and the survivors of relatives who had died from smoking-related diseases to join the "class" which had

valuable legal rights. Chuck Farah and his team’s efforts recently brought $80 million in relief to the

families who had waited for justice for so long.

“THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE SHALL BE THE HIGHEST LAW.”– MARCUS TULLIUS CICERO

Page 10: Farah & Farah Brochure

As you can see on the next page, we have

had many successes. Whether a case goes to

court or settles out of court, our dedication

and experience work together to maximize

the amount of your recovery. In the final

analysis, the people who say “It’s all about

the money,” are right. Money you’ll be able

to use to help regain your health and quality

of life. Money you probably wouldn’t have

received if we hadn’t been there to help.

We take great pride in that fact. And that

our clients have received many millions of

dollars as a result of our efforts. But for us,

the real satisfaction comes from knowing

that justice has been served and that we’ve

played a large role in giving our clients

their lives back.

OUR RESULTS

HELPING PEOPLE IS THE ROAD WE TRAVEL.
