Little Rock IsDangerous

Pulaski County, where Little Rock is located, reported a traffic fatality rate of 17 deaths per 100,000 residents according to the Arkansas Center for Health Improvement, with roadway deaths remaining persistently high since a 28 percent increase from 2019 to 2020. Insurance companies begin working to minimize what they pay you immediately after a crash. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.

Warning

IMPORTANT ARKANSAS LEGAL INFORMATION — BIRTH INJURY

Statute of Limitations: 2 years from the date of the wrongful act (Ark. Code § 16-114-203). Arkansas generally does not apply a discovery rule — the 2-year clock starts on the date of the negligent act, not when you discover the harm.

Minor Patients Under Age 9 (Critical): If the child was 9 years old or younger at the time of the birth injury, the deadline is the child's 11th birthday or 2 years from the act — whichever is later. If no injury was known and could not reasonably have been discovered before the child's 11th birthday, the deadline is either the child's 19th birthday or 2 years from the date of discovery — whichever comes first.

Expert Testimony Required: Arkansas requires expert medical testimony in malpractice cases (Ark. Code § 16-114-206).

No Damage Caps: Arkansas does not cap compensatory damages in birth injury cases. Lifetime care costs, future lost earnings, and pain and suffering are fully recoverable.

Comparative Negligence: Modified comparative fault applies (Ark. Code § 16-64-122).

This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.

Your Case May Be Worth More Than They're Telling You.

Insurance companies for hospitals may make early low offers and often use delay and denial tactics to make families feel like they have no case. Lifetime care costs are economic damages and fully uncapped. TopDog fights for the maximum recovery available for your child.
