Authentic
Atticus, founder of Atticus Injury Law, grew up in a small town in Iowa and brings his small-town values into every client relationship. He has had to work hard to become an award-winning attorney, and that roll-up-your-sleeves mentality has always driven him. He understands what it’s like to face a larger, wealthier opponent and fights relentlessly for his clients.
Compassionate
No two personal injury matters are the same. The last thing you need when healing from an injury is an attorney who doesn’t take the time to understand your unique needs. Our personal injury lawyer at Atticus Injury Law brings a spirit of compassion to his client interactions. We understand that a traumatic accident and recovering from an injury take a physical and emotional toll.

Courtroom Litigator
