01.
Car & Auto Accidents
A serious auto accident can disrupt nearly every part of your life. Even when the insurance company seems cooperative at first, questions about fault, medical treatment, lost wages, and the value of your claim can become complicated quickly.
Wilcox Injury Law PLLC represents injured Iowans in car accident claims involving distracted driving, speeding, unsafe turns, rear-end collisions, intersection crashes, and other forms of careless driving. The goal is to build a clear claim that documents what happened, how the crash affected you, and what compensation is needed to account for your losses.
As a solo personal injury practice, the firm emphasizes direct attorney access, clear communication, and personal attention from start to finish. You work directly with Fred Wilcox as your case is evaluated, developed, negotiated, and, when necessary, prepared for litigation.
02.
Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Commercial trucking accidents differ significantly from ordinary automobile collisions. Federal safety regulations, driver qualification requirements, maintenance records, electronic logging devices, and company policies can all become critical evidence.
Because trucking companies frequently dispatch investigators immediately after serious crashes, injured victims benefit from having legal representation as early as possible. Important evidence can disappear quickly if it is not preserved.
Wilcox Injury Law investigates every aspect of a commercial vehicle collision to determine whether driver negligence, improper maintenance, overloaded cargo, distracted driving, fatigue, or inadequate training contributed to the crash.
Whether your injuries resulted from an eighteen-wheeler, delivery van, utility vehicle, or other commercial vehicle, we are committed to pursuing full compensation from every responsible party.


03.
Motorcycle, Bicycle & Pedestrian Accidents
Drivers have a duty to remain alert for everyone sharing Iowa’s roadways. Unfortunately, many crashes occur because motorists fail to see motorcycles, fail to yield to pedestrians, or make unsafe turns across bicycle lanes.
These collisions often produce severe injuries including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, fractures, road rash, internal injuries, and permanent disabilities.
Insurance companies sometimes attempt to unfairly blame injured motorcyclists, cyclists, or pedestrians for collisions. Wilcox Injury Law carefully investigates each accident to ensure the facts—not assumptions—determine liability.
We understand how life-changing these injuries can be and strive to help clients obtain compensation that reflects the true impact on their lives and future.
04.
Slip, Trip & Fall Injuries
Falls can occur almost anywhere—including grocery stores, apartment buildings, parking lots, restaurants, hotels, sidewalks, office buildings, and retail businesses.
Hazards such as wet floors, broken stairs, uneven pavement, poor lighting, ice accumulation, missing handrails, and neglected maintenance may create unreasonable risks that property owners should address.
Although insurance companies often dismiss fall injuries as minor, many victims suffer broken hips, wrist fractures, spinal injuries, concussions, or injuries requiring surgery and lengthy rehabilitation.
Wilcox Injury Law works to identify hazardous conditions, preserve evidence, and establish whether a property owner failed to exercise reasonable care to keep visitors safe.


05.
Dog Bites & Animal Attacks
Children are especially vulnerable to serious injuries from dog attacks, but victims of all ages may require emergency medical care, reconstructive surgery, or counseling following an attack.
Dog bite claims often involve medical expenses, lost wages, permanent scarring, emotional distress, and future medical treatment. Prompt investigation is important to identify witnesses, document injuries, and preserve evidence.
Wilcox Injury Law assists clients through every stage of the claims process while working to recover compensation that reflects the full extent of their injuries and losses.
If you or a loved one has been injured by someone else’s animal, we are prepared to help you understand your legal options.
06.
Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injuries often include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, severe burns, amputations, multiple fractures, and other life-altering conditions.
These cases require careful evaluation of future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost earning capacity, adaptive equipment, home modifications, and lifelong care needs.
Wilcox Injury Law works closely with medical providers and other professionals when necessary to accurately present the full financial and personal impact of these devastating injuries.
Our objective is to pursue compensation that provides financial security while allowing injured clients to focus on rebuilding their lives.


07.
Wrongful Death
Wrongful death cases frequently arise from motor vehicle collisions, commercial trucking accidents, dangerous property conditions, and other acts of negligence.
Families often face overwhelming emotional grief while simultaneously dealing with funeral expenses, lost household income, and unanswered questions about what happened.
Wilcox Injury Law approaches these cases with compassion, professionalism, and careful attention to detail. We investigate the circumstances surrounding the loss and work diligently to hold negligent parties accountable.
Throughout the process, we strive to provide clear communication and trusted legal guidance while treating every family with the respect they deserve.
