Cutten Car Accident and Personal Injury Lawyer

Cutten is an unincorporated area of Eureka in Humboldt County, which lies east of Rosewood and south of Arcata Bay. Set among a rural area of tall trees, its convenience to Sequoia Park and the zoo makes it a great place to live and raise a family. U.S. Highway 101 is the primary route for those traveling along the coast. The total population in 2019 was 3,108, which gives residents the opportunity to know their neighbors, a commodity not found in many towns. While this lifestyle offers the best of both worlds, accidents still happen.

If you are involved in an accident caused by negligence, I hope you will keep me in mind. An experienced Cutten auto accident lawyer can help you recover fair compensation for injuries or the loss of a loved one due to wrongful death.

Most people don’t think about a lawyer until they’ve been injured or have lost a loved one due to negligence. Googling a lawyer in your area can turn up countless choices. However, whenever you are in need, some of the following suggestions might help:

• Choosing a lawyer who only practices personal injury law is essential.
• Looking over their settlements and verdicts can be helpful.
• Ensure the lawyer doesn’t only settle with the insurance company. Some cases have to be taken to trial to obtain needed compensation.
• Choosing a lawyer who is personally interested in you and your family matters. 
• Make sure the lawyer has experience in handling your type of case.

I’ve worked on upholding my clients’ rights to fair compensation because of motor vehicle accidents caused by distracted, drunk, and other negligent drivers since 1982. My staff and I strive to provide service that is unparalleled because we firmly believe that no one should have to pay for their financial loss and pain and suffering caused by another. 

All of our clients have different interests and their own unique goals. We explain to them options that are available in their cases and possible outcomes. I, as well as my staff of investigators, attorneys, and paralegals try our best to be compassionate and understanding as we help you. 

Understanding something about personal injuries can be valuable information for those who have not studied the law. This helps them learn their rights, how a case is handled, and what they can expect. For around 10 years, I was on a cable television show called Ask the Lawyer, where people could ask their questions. I also wrote two books. Both of them can be downloaded on Amazon for Kindle free of charge. The Ultimate California Auto Accident Handbook answers questions such as choosing a lawyer, time limits for filing, and many others. The other book is called the California Motorcycle Accident Handbook. It answers common questions such as what mistakes can be made when evaluating a motorcycle accident and how a hit and run crash is handled.

My office specializes in all types of motor vehicle accidents and traumas but also handles other cases equally well. We have a good track record of obtaining fair compensation for our clients. In addition, we are called the “personal” Cutten personal injury attorneys because we care about our clients and their families. Having a good outcome for a client is essential to me, and many of our clients become friends. They are always welcome to drop in for a chat and a cup of coffee. We like to see how they are getting along. Some of the types of personal injuries my law firm handles include:

• Bicycle accidents
• Car collisions
• Defective medical devices
• Drug products liability
• Dog Bites
• Electric scooter and bike accidents
• Mesothelioma
• Motorcycle crashes
• Premises liability
• Products liability
• Pedestrian accidents
• Roundup injuries
• Self-driving cars
• Traumatic injuries
• Truck accidents
• Uber/Lyft accidents
• Wildfire injuries
• Workers’ compensation
• Wrongful death

I understand the impact a severe injury can have on the entire family, and I use a holistic approach in handling personal injury cases. I have also suffered pain from accident injuries and am familiar with how it affects a person’s life and everyone around them. The family not only faces the financial loss of an accident such as mounting medical bills, lost wages, and the pain and suffering of those injured.

They can also face the emotional and psychological trauma that an accident can cause. We help our clients not only obtain compensation but find the positive after a medical or emotional injury. This is why we understand the trauma that you’ve gone through and know how to help you overcome or deal with your injuries so you can go forward.
