RESULTS

Gates Law Firm has a proven track record of helping clients across Arkansas and the country. Most recently, we secured a $110 million verdict for “Baby Owen,” one of the largest personal injury verdicts in Arkansas history, on behalf of a family whose infant suffered permanent blindness and traumatic brain injury at an unlicensed daycare. Combined with our other successful recoveries, we’ve now helped clients receive over $160 million in compensation.

Our experience spans a wide variety of cases, including car wrecks, trucking collisions involving 18-wheelers, product liability cases, and traumatic brain injury cases. While each case is unique, we bring the same level of dedication and expertise to every client we represent, working tirelessly to secure the best possible outcome for their situation.

You don’t have to bear this alone. We’ve got your back. We will get you the just compensation you deserve.
