Auto Defense Litigation

Proven Trial Experience. Strategic, Results-Oriented Representation.

The attorneys at Derrevere Stevens Black & Cozad have successfully tried more than 200 automobile negligence cases to verdict, including those involving wrongful death, catastrophic injury, trucking accidents, and high-exposure claims. Our trial-tested team understands what’s at stake — whether defending an individual, business, or insurer — and we focus on early, candid assessments to drive strategy, control costs, and deliver results.

We represent clients across a broad spectrum of automobile negligence matters, including claims involving uninsured or underinsured motorists, workers’ compensation interactions, sovereign immunity defenses, civil DUI allegations, punitive damages, and statutory violations. Our attorneys are adept at navigating complex factual and legal issues, and we know how to position a case for resolution — whether through dismissal, settlement, or trial. Should the matter proceed to appeal, our team is fully equipped to continue the defense through the appellate courts.

At every stage of litigation, we combine deep trial experience with cutting-edge legal technology to deliver high-quality, cost-effective representation. Our approach is practical and proactive — identifying risks early, developing strong legal defenses, and executing a strategy that aligns with our client’s goals. Whether defending a single case or managing a volume-based litigation portfolio, we bring the same level of rigor, responsiveness, and professionalism to every matter.
