For the Injured And For A Safer Iowa

Fighting For Iowans Injured Because Of Negligent Driving

The personal injury attorneys at Galligan Law have successfully represented thousands of Iowans injured on Iowa roads. We have advocated for families after fatal car accidents took the lives of their loved ones. Statistics from the Iowa Department of Transportation show that more than 20,000 individuals are injured and 300 killed in motor vehicle collisions in Iowa every year.

The overwhelming majority of these injuries and deaths can be traced to negligent driving. The injuries suffered in a collision can be life-altering. For instance, victims are often left with challenges such as loss of income, medical bills, pain, loss of function, depression, anguish and loss of enjoyment of life. And the effects from the death of a loved one can be life-shattering.

Galligan Law attorneys have successfully fought for and obtained justice through meaningful financial recoveries for Iowans who have been injured or killed in motor vehicle collisions.
