Personal Injury
Personal injury is one of the most vitally important areas of law in the United States. People’s lives can be irrevocably damaged if they aren’t awarded the financial compensation they need after a serious injury. Not everyone has great health insurance, and even if you do, a serious injury could put you out of work for months or even permanently. A serious car crash might deprive you of a vehicle and prevent you from earning a living, paying your bills or putting food on the table – all while you struggle to pay mounting accident-related medical bills.
Attorney Isaac F. Cotto considers his clients family, which is why every case he takes is personal to him. He will dedicate all the time and effort necessary to investigate your accident, build a case that shows the responsible party should be held financially liable and aggressively negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf.
Car and Truck Auto Accident Injuries
People who drive negligently and cause accidents should pay for the injuries and damages they cause. Unfortunately, the insurance companies don’t always see it that way. They may act as if they want to do right by you, but what they’re really concerned about is paying you as little as possible for your injuries.
Your livelihood shouldn’t be permanently damaged because of a car or truck crash that wasn’t your fault. The Cotto Law Group will investigate the circumstances of your accident and take on the insurance company in negotiations or even the courtroom if they refuse to reach a fair settlement in your car or truck accident
injury case.
Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcycle accident cases are often tougher than normal car or truck accident cases. Judges and juries often hold biases against riders. They sometimes assume that motorcycles are for reckless people, and reckless people cause accidents. The insurance company knows about those biases and may try to get you to accept an inadequate settlement by suggesting that no one’s going to believe your side of the story. The Cotto Law Group is committed to justice and integrity in the legal system. If you were blameless in your accident, we’ll fight to prove it and get you the money you need to recover.
Slip and Fall
Business owners, homeowners, government organizations and every other type of property owner has a duty to keep people on their property safe from preventable injuries. Hazards on properties range from things like boxes in walkways and loose railing to damaged outlets and asbestos. If your injury was caused by unsafe conditions on a property, the property owner should be paying for your medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. The Cotto Law Group is here to make sure you don’t suffer the financial consequences of someone else’s negligence.
Workers’ Compensation
Georgia businesses have many responsibilities to their employees. Two of those responsibilities are directly related to workplace injuries:
- They have a duty to provide a safe workplace for employees
- They are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance
Not every business meets these obligations. In some cases, businesses that do have workers’ compensation coverage don’t want to pay claims because they don’t want their rates to go up.
Uber/Rideshare Accident Injuries
Uber, Lyft and other rideshare drivers are required by law to have their own insurance. In some cases, their employer also provides liability protection. Unfortunately, there are often specific rules about who is and isn’t covered and scenarios in which passengers might not be eligible for compensation. Whether you were injured in an accident caused by an Uber driver or you were a passenger in an Uber when it got hit, it may end up being in your best interest to speak with a lawyer to learn about your options.
Criminal Law
No one is entirely defined by their mistakes. Unfortunately, the criminal legal system often approaches every case as black or white – guilty or innocent. Criminal defense lawyer Isaac F. Cotto fights to ensure the lives of his clients and their families aren’t left in tatters by a single mistake or inaccurate accusations. From DUI defense to theft and assault cases, The Cotto Law Group will have your back.
Family Law
Some of the most emotionally complex legal cases are those involving internal family disputes. Having an attorney who speaks your language and is authentically concerned for the wellbeing of you and your children can make a painful situation much more bearable. Duluth family lawyer Isaac Cotto strives to reach the best divorce, child custody, child support or alimony resolution for every client he represents.
