Common Cases We Handle
Personal Injury
Our attorneys have a proven track record of results in a wide range of personal injury cases, including wrongful death lawsuits, premises liability, pedestrian accidents, boating accidents, bicycle accidents, dog bites, brain injuries, and car, truck, and bus accidents. If you were harmed by someone else’s negligence, we can aggressively pursue justice while you focus on healing.
Many people are unsure whether they have a claim worth pursuing, especially after what seems like a minor crash or a fall that only later develops into a serious injury. A brief consultation with an injury attorney in Santa Rosa can help you understand how California law applies to your situation, what types of damages may be available, and what evidence we will need to gather to present your story clearly to an insurer or, if necessary, a local jury.
Product Liability
From dangerous machinery to defective medical devices, our firm has a reputation for achieving favorable results in product liability claims. If a faulty product caused you harm, our attorneys can fight to hold the negligent manufacturer, distributor, or retailer accountable in a product liability lawsuit.
These cases often involve products that are sold or used throughout Sonoma County, from industrial equipment used in local businesses to consumer goods purchased in neighborhood stores. We work with engineers and other qualified professionals to evaluate how and why a product failed, whether it violated applicable safety standards, and how that failure connects to the harm you suffered, so you are not left shouldering the cost of a dangerous design or manufacturing defect alone.
Nursing Home Abuse
We understand how painful and emotional it can be to deal with nursing home abuse in your family. If you or a loved one suffered abuse or neglect in a nursing home facility, we can work diligently to hold all liable parties accountable. Our lawyers have a deep understanding of these cases to guide your steps wisely while providing compassionate counsel during this difficult time.
Abuse and neglect can take many forms, from unexplained bruises and weight loss to changes in mood, withdrawal, or fear around certain staff members. Families in Santa Rosa often feel torn between wanting to protect their loved one and worrying about moving them or confronting facility administrators, and we help by reviewing medical records, consulting with appropriate professionals, and explaining what state and federal regulations require of local long-term care facilities.
Employment Law
Employer disputes can be nerve-racking. With so much at stake, knowing where to turn for an employment law dispute is essential to protect your employee rights and economic security. Whether you’re dealing with harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, or discrimination, our firm is committed to protecting your livelihood and right to a safe and respectful workplace.
Employees in Santa Rosa and throughout Northern California often face difficult choices when deciding whether to report misconduct or unlawful treatment at work. We help you evaluate your options under California employment law, explain how complaints to agencies or internal human resources departments may affect your case, and develop a plan that seeks to protect both your financial stability and your long-term career.
Family Law
At The Cartwright Law Firm, we have extensive experience representing couples and families in family law proceedings. Whether you’re preparing for a divorce, a child custody and visitation dispute, or other family matter, you can trust our attorneys to guide your steps with care and integrity.
Family law cases in Sonoma County often intersect with other legal concerns, such as questions about who will remain in the family home, how to divide retirement accounts, or how a history of abuse or substance use may affect parenting plans. We walk you through how local courts in Santa Rosa typically handle these issues, what documentation you can begin gathering, and how to approach negotiations in a way that keeps your long-term goals for your children and finances in view.
