Personal Injury
The Cottrell Law Office handles these personal injury cases in Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri:
Auto Accidents
Car accidents are the leading cause of acquired disability and cost every American more than one thousand dollars each year. They are often the result of carelessness, recklessness, or poor driving conditions. The attorneys at The Cottrell Law Office know that your pain and suffering does not necessarily end after the wreckage has been cleared away.
It is difficult to predict the future expenses related to an auto accident such as medical expenses, physical therapy, and lost wages. The Cottrell Law Office has experienced attorneys who know how to estimate total damages for the maximum compensation that may be sought for an injury or death.
If you or a loved one were injured or killed in a Joplin or Rogers auto accident, or Fayetteville AR car accident, that was not your fault, contact the Cottrell Law Office immediately.
We have extensive experience in helping families like yours during these difficult times.
Truck Accidents
A truck accident can leave lasting physical and emotional scars. There are more than 500,000 trucking accidents in the United States each year, of which approximately 5,000 result in fatalities to one or more parties. In fact, a person is killed or injured in an accident involving a large truck every 16 minutes.
The manufacturer of the truck, the truck company's owner, and the driver may all be responsible for the accident. Only some trucking accident law firms know which parties can be held responsible for your accident and injuries. The Cottrell Law Office has been successfully representing truck accident victims in legal claims since 1992.
If you or a loved one were injured or killed in a southwest Missouri or northwest Arkansas truck accident that was not your fault, contact the Cottrell Law Office immediately.
18 Wheeler Accidents
An 18 wheeler accident is not like an ordinary car accident. The very size and velocity of the vehicles magnify both the physical and emotional consequences of a typical motor vehicle accident. Unfortunately, the number of 18 wheeler trucks on the road is growing, and one out of every eight traffic deaths is attributed to an 18 wheeler accident. Those who survive an accident with one of these enormous vehicles often suffer catastrophic, life-altering injuries.
The attorneys of the Cottrell Law Office know that your 18 wheeler accident must be dealt with in a special way. We can give advice about what to say and do when speaking to trucking and insurance companies, and we obtain evidence that helps determine and prove fault in an 18 wheeler accident. We pride ourselves on helping clients understand their rights if they have been involved in an 18 wheeler accident.
If you or a loved one were injured or killed in a Fayetteville, Rogers, or Joplin 18 wheeler accident, that was not your fault, contact the Cottrell Law Office immediately.
Motorcycle Accidents
A motorcycle accident can often have serious and devastating consequences. And although motorcycle drivers are sometimes portrayed as reckless, the attorneys at the Cottrell Law Office know better. The vast majority of motorcycle accidents that occur do so when the driver is acting responsibly and following all applicable Arkansas or Missouri traffic laws.
If you are concerned about paying legal fees in addition to all your costly medical bills, you do not necessarily have to worry. Many of our motorcycle accident cases are taken on a contingency basis, which means that you do not owe us any money if you do not receive a settlement for your case.
If you or a loved one were injured or killed in a Joplin, Rogers, or Fayetteville motorcycle accident that was not your fault, contact the Cottrell Law Office immediately.
