Proven Case Results in Serious Injury and Wrongful Death

Life-changing injuries and the sudden loss of a loved one can leave families overwhelmed—physically, emotionally, and financially. Our firm stands with victims of serious personal injury and wrongful death, providing skilled legal representation and pursuing the full compensation they are owed. At the Law Office of W. Brice Cottongame, P.C., we’ve helped hundreds of Texans move forward after tragedy.

Fighting for Justice Accountability in the Most Devastating Crashes

We have handled high-stakes trucking and vehicle accident cases involving catastrophic injury and death, delivering results that have improved our clients’ lives. The following are just a few examples:

Historic 18-Wheeler Crash in Tarrant County

We represented the family of a man who was killed and his wife, who was catastrophically injured, in what was, at the time, the deadliest 18-wheeler crash in Tarrant County history. A confidential settlement was reached involving 8-figures, helping the family recover financial stability.

Leg Amputation After Rear-End Collision

Our firm filed suit for a father who was rear-ended at highway speeds and suffered a traumatic leg amputation. The case was resolved in favor of our client, securing compensation for his extensive damages.

Wrongful Death for Young Father

We fought for the widow and children of a man who was killed in an 18-wheeler crash. The case concluded with a confidential settlement, providing financial security for his surviving family.
Mother and Daughter Injured in Rear-End Collision
We also accept cases where the injuries may not be catastrophic, but were serious enough to cause injuries that remain for years, as in the case we handled in a conservative Texas county where a mother and daughter were rear-ended in a motor vehicle collision. The jury verdict we obtained was $311,000, and was 25 times higher than the offer of settlement before trial, against one of the largest liability insurance companies in the country.

Results in Complex Injury and Workplace Cases

We take on tough injury cases involving dangerous work environments and negligent operators—and we win.

Arm Amputation from Overhead Crane Incident

A man who suffered a traumatic arm amputation while working on an overhead crane turned to us for help. The case settled out of court for a confidential amount, providing our client with resources for lifelong medical care.

Oil and Gas Wildfire Property Damage

Our team represented multiple families and businesses whose homes and properties were destroyed in a wildland fire caused by the negligent operation of an oil and gas well. Each case was resolved with a confidential settlement.

Jury Awards $6.9 & $1.9 Million in Man Life Collapse

Two men were thrown 20 feet from a collapsing man lift on a worksite. Despite a $25,000 pre-trial offer, we took the case to trial and secured a $6.9 million & $1.9 million jury verdict, which was successfully collected.

Holding Medical Professionals Accountable

We are committed to helping clients injured by medical negligence recover what they deserve.

Surgical Nerve Injury

Our firm filed a medical malpractice claim for a man who sustained permanent nerve damage in his leg after a surgical procedure. The case was settled for a confidential amount.

Dental Malpractice in Wisdom Tooth Extractions

We represented two clients who suffered permanent nerve damage after separate wisdom tooth extractions performed by the same dentist. Each case concluded with a confidential settlement, holding the provider accountable for the harm caused.

Medical Malpractice in Low Back Surgery

We represented a man who sustained permanent nerve damage following a test to diagnose a bleed in his low back. The case was settled pre-trial for a confidential amount that provided for his permanent injuries.

Every Case. Every Client. Every Victory Matters.

These are just a few examples of how we’ve helped individuals and families secure justice after life-altering events. Every case we handle is personal, and every result reflects our commitment to doing what’s right.
