A serious car accident can leave you facing physical pain, emotional trauma, and mounting financial pressure. Medical bills, vehicle repairs, and lost wages can add up quickly — all while you’re trying to recover from your injuries. If your crash was caused by someone else’s negligence, you shouldn’t be the one paying the price.
At Mulholland Injury Law, our experienced Milwaukee car accident lawyers are here to protect your rights, hold negligent drivers accountable, and fight to get you the compensation you deserve. We have extensive experience handling all types of auto accident cases in Milwaukee and throughout Wisconsin — and we don’t back down from insurance companies.
Why Do You Need a Car Accident Lawyer in Milwaukee?
Car accident cases are rarely straightforward. Even seemingly minor collisions can lead to long-term injuries and disputes with insurers. An experienced attorney helps you:
- Investigate the Accident to uncover key evidence such as dashcam footage, eyewitness statements, and police reports.
- Establish Liability to prove the other party’s negligence, whether it was distracted driving, speeding, DUI, or reckless behavior.
- Negotiate With Insurance Companies that often try to minimize payouts or deny valid claims altogether.
- Calculate Full Damages so you don’t settle for less than your case is worth — especially when long-term treatment or lost future wages are involved.
We are committed to fighting for your best interests and won’t hesitate to take your case to trial if needed.

FAQs About Car Accident Cases
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Milwaukee?
Wisconsin generally allows three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, certain factors can shorten this window — so don’t delay in speaking to an attorney.
What if I was partially at fault?
Wisconsin follows a comparative negligence rule. You can still recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50% at fault — but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
How much is my car accident case worth?
The value depends on the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses, how the accident affected your life, and the degree of the other driver’s fault. We’ll assess the full scope of your damages during a free case evaluation.
Do I have to go to court?
Most cases settle out of court. But if insurance companies don’t offer a fair settlement, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial.
