Personal Injury

Every day, we trust those around us to act with the reasonable care needed to keep others safe. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case. While true accidents can and do happen, many injurious incidents are completely preventable.

Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice takes many different forms. If you have been the victim of malpractice, you may not even know it. Many people first realize that something has gone wrong when a bad result happens; doctors stop talking with them and staff treat them differently.

Workers’ Compensation

Nearly all workers in the state of Iowa are entitled to workers’ compensation when they are injured at work or while carrying out any duties related to their employment. The state mandates that all employers with one or more employees must carry workers’ compensation insurance (with very few exceptions).

Class Action

Often, when defective products make it onto the consumer market, they don’t just harm one or two people—they injure and kill hundreds or even thousands.

Legal Malpractice

When you hire an attorney to represent you in a legal matter, you rightfully trust that they will provide proper, ethical services. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. When an attorney or law firm acts outside of the scope of acceptable standard service, either through negligence or misconduct, affected individuals have the right to seek restitution.

Motorcycle Accident

In many ways, motorcycle accidents are similar to other types of personal injury litigation. The injured party must prove the other driver’s negligence by a preponderance of the evidence standard.

Car Accident

When you are involved in a car accident, your life can change in an instant. Even when we do everything possible to keep ourselves safe on the road, we cannot control the actions of others. When fellow motorists are careless, distracted, or even downright reckless, they can cause serious accidents with life-altering consequences for all involved.

Catastrophic Injury

When a severe injury changes your life or the life of someone you love, the attorneys at Ball, Kirk & Holm, P.C., are there to help. We serve clients in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area and the surrounding parts of Iowa in catastrophic injury cases involving a wide range of accidents, incidents, and injuries.

Truck Accident

Waterloo is located right at the intersection of several major highways—highways like 20, 218 and 380, among others. Because of our location, many large trucks pass through Waterloo on their way to other places. While these large trucks are a critical aspect of business and our economy as a whole, they can also pose a danger to other drivers on the road.

Product Liability

Every year in America, countless people are hurt by defective products they thought were safe. While defective products can cause relatively minor injuries, these injuries can also be life-changing and, in some cases, fatal.

Wrongful Death

When a loved one has been killed in an accident or by negligence, there is nothing that can ever compensate you for that loss. At Ball, Kirk & Holm, P.C., we understand that a person’s care and affection is worth more than any amount of money, but we also know that legal action may be the only way to help someone gain the resources they need to move forward after a wrongful death.
