PERSONAL INJURY
Common Accidents in Pulaski County
Pulaski County is home to busy highways, hospitals, businesses, and residential neighborhoods—which means a high volume of injury-causing incidents. Some of the most common include:
Car wrecks on I-30, I-40, and major city streets
18-wheeler accidents on the 430 and 530 bypasses
Pedestrian and bike collisions near downtown Little Rock or UAMS
Falls in commercial buildings, apartment complexes, and city sidewalks
Medical malpractice from hospitals like UAMS or Baptist
Nursing home neglect in both private and public facilities
No matter how it happened, if someone else’s carelessness caused your injury, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain.
Whether it’s a car crash on I-630, a slip and fall in Midtown, or a dog bite in North Little Rock, accidents in Pulaski County happen fast—and the aftermath is complicated. At Ludwig Law Firm, we help injury victims protect their rights and secure compensation, starting with one critical truth: the steps you take immediately after an injury matter.
