Arkansas law requires drivers to reduce speed and exercise caution when traveling through highway and roadway work zones.

How long do I have to file a claim for a work zone accident?
What if I share some blame?
Do these cases always go to trial?
How do attorney fees work?
In Arkansas, most personal injury claims must be filed within three years of the accident. Some exceptions may apply, so it’s important to seek legal help as soon as possible.
Arkansas follows a modified comparative fault rule. You may still recover damages if you are less than 50% at fault, but any award will be reduced in proportion to your share of fault.
Most injury claims are resolved through settlement, but we prepare every case as if it will go to trial to protect your interests.
McMath Woods handles work zone accident cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no upfront fees and we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
