Divorce

DUI/DWI
While a victim’s family is grieving over the loss of a loved one, a trucking company insurance company is making certain that deserved compensation to the victim’s family is contested. Because McCutcheon & Hamner handles only personal injury cases, we know what to do in handling complex truck wreck cases. We are not suggesting that lawyers who handle divorce work or DUI cases do not know what to in handling truck wreck cases. What we are saying is here at McCutcheon & Hamner, we have a tried and tested team of truck accident reconstructionists that is on call 24 hours a day and 7 days a week that we call immediately in truck wreck cases, this system has resulted in millions of dollars paid to our clients.
Wrongful Death
This is an amount awarded to a burn injury victim as a means of punishing the person or persons responsible. If the burn victim dies, the family of the burn victim may have a wrongful death claim and sue the companies responsible.
Traffic Violations
Most car accidents are caused by a negligent action or omission on the part of a driver. Common causes include speeding, failing to obey other traffic laws, such as rolling through stop signs, running red lights, or swerving between lanes, as well as driving while texting or using a cell phone, driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, or mere inattention to the task at hand. These types of behaviors place liability for damages on the careless driver and thus his or her insurance carrier.
Assault
Arson
In reaching a burn injury compensation settlement, both sides will negotiate based on what they believe the plaintiff or victim may be awarded at trial. How and where the burn injury occurs may be important because it may show the degree of the defendant’s liability. This could affect how much a jury might be willing to award at trial. There is no one kind of personal burn injury case. They happen in a variety of ways, they can include workplace burn injuries, faulty consumer products burn injuries, arson burn injuries, and any kind of burn accident that is caused by some degree of negligence.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Business Disputes
After graduating from Brooks High School, Joel attended the University of Alabama where he studied corporate finance and investment management as well as chemistry. Initially, Joel had planned to attend medical school but after taking a business law class where he was challenged to resolve complex legal issues, Joel knew he had found his calling. Joel graduated from the University of Alabama with honors in 1991.

Workers Compensation
The law limits the fees charged by lawyers to 15% in workers compensation cases and the attorneys who defend these cases are specialists by and large within the law who largely limit their practice to defending insurance companies in workers compensation cases.

Premises Liability
Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents and injuries can be generally classified as “premises liability” personal injury cases. These types of injury cases arise when a property owner or custodian of property is negligent in the maintenance, upkeep, and repair of the property that is in question. Many states have laws that require landowners to maintain their property so that it does not present an unreasonable risk of harm or injury to those that are visitors of the property. These premise liability laws often pertain to both business owners and homeowners.
Real Estate Transactions
After graduating from the University of Alabama, Joel was accepted into the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama. Although some students focused on corporate law, real estate transactions, or commercial law, Joel knew that he was destined to be a trial lawyer. As a trial lawyer, Joel knew that he could stand in front of a jury and present his client’s case and seek justice for those who might not otherwise have a voice. During law school, Joel focused his studies on trial advocacy and presentation of his client’s case.
Property Damage
At our firm, we always prepare every case as if it will go to trial. Through thorough investigation and documented evidence, we put your case in the strongest possible position. Many personal injury lawyers fail to do this. We have learned that through thorough preparation of all cases, we can obtain the most value for our clients in terms of compensation for medical expenses pain and suffering, lost income, property damage, emotional trauma, and more.

Personal Injury
The first step to take in the aftermath of negligence-based injuries or a work-related injury is to get the medical attention you need. After that, you should consult with an attorney experienced in handling personal injury and workers’ compensation claims and lawsuits. You will want to understand your legal rights and what must be done to pursue those rights and your best interests.

Social Security Disability
When you hear the term Social Security, you probably think of your retirement. But the Social Security Administration offers many types of benefits, including payments to disabled workers. However, Social Security disability payments are not automatic, and denial of benefits is common. In fact, 67% of the individuals who apply are denied at the initial level. You need our experienced lawyers in your corner when you have been disabled. We at McCutcheon & Hamner guide you through every step of the complex disability claim process.

Trusts and Estates

Wills
The law office provided a great service to Veterans and their wives in assisting with obtaining simple wills this was a program that I believe was started on or around Veteran's Day. They were very helpful and kind and my husband who served our country proudly was blessed by the gift.
