Personal Injury

  • Car accidents – Insurance companies have unequal bargaining power. We provide experienced legal representation to people who have been injured in car, city bus, motorcycle and bike accidents. Our firm is dedicated to leveling the playing field between injured people and insurance companies.
  • Truck accidents – Trucking accidents often cause serious injuries to the people involved. We investigate the cause of the crash and work to obtain compensation and hold the responsible parties accountable for their negligence.
  • Slip and falls – If you have been injured in a fall on public or private property, contact our slip and fall attorneys. We effectively pursue compensation for people who are injured from falls because of slippery floors, bad sidewalks and poor lighting.

Premises liability – Property owners have the duty to adequately maintain, light, and secure their property. We represent people who have been injured as a result of dangerous properties and negligent property owners.
Dog bites – Dog bites can cause scarring and disfigurement to adults and children. Our firm pursues compensation for people who have been injured in animal attacks.
Medical malpractice – People rely on doctors, dentists, and other medical professionals to provide proper care. We represent people who have been injured by the negligence of medical professionals.
Wrongful death – Losing a family member in a fatal accident is devastating and traumatic. We approach wrongful death claims with sensitivity. We understand no amount of compensation can reverse the loss of a loved one, but we believe obtaining compensation allows for closure and holds people responsible for their negligent acts.

Workers' Compensation

  • Workplace accidents — When employees are injured on the job or while performing job-related duties, it is important for them to be aware of their rights. We vigorously pursue benefits for people who suffer on the job injuries.
  • Construction accidents — Due to the use of heavy equipment and to lifting requirements, workers in the construction industry often suffer job-related injuries that may result in permanent disabilities. Our attorneys work with construction workers to obtain the compensation they need to cover medical bills and lost wages.

Traffic Violations

  • Drunk Driving/DUI — After a drunk driving arrest, call an experienced DUI defense lawyer at Downer, Walters & Mitchener to protect your rights and your driver's license.
