Voted Best Trial Lawyer in Nevada by his peers in 2015 and holding Martindale-Hubbell's highest AV Preeminent rating, Robert built The Cottle Firm around a single principle: every case prepared like it's going to trial.

Editorial Verdict

Why Choose The Cottle Firm?

If you're hurt in a Las Vegas crash and the insurance carrier sees Robert Cottle's name on your demand, the conversation changes. Three-and-a-half decades of trial work, AV Preeminent peer reviews, and $300M+ in real recoveries give the firm leverage that translates into bigger settlements without a courtroom — and a credible threat when one is needed. Cottle is admitted in Nevada and Utah and personally tries the firm's complex cases, including trucking, wrongful death, and defective product matters. Clients consistently describe a small-firm experience: direct attorney access, returned phone calls, and a sense that someone is actually fighting for them.

What Clients Say

Client
Anthony D.
Car Accident · Las Vegas
★★★★★
"I was rear-ended by a delivery truck on Eastern. The Cottle Firm got my medical bills covered, my truck repaired, and a settlement that gave my family breathing room. Robert took my call himself the first day."
Client
Lisa M.
Slip & Fall · The Strip
★★★★★
"I slipped on a wet floor at a casino and shattered my wrist. Three other firms passed because they didn't want to fight a casino. The Cottle Firm took the case and won — and the casino fixed the policy."
Client

FAQ

Common Questions About This Firm

What kinds of cases does The Cottle Firm handle?
Plaintiff personal injury only — car and truck accidents, motorcycle and pedestrian crashes, slip-and-fall, casino and hotel injuries, defective products, and wrongful death.
How is fee handled if my case settles?
A typical Nevada injury contingency is 33% before suit is filed and 40% after. The firm provides a written fee agreement that explains the percentage, case-cost reimbursement, and how everything is calculated at the end of the case.
What is the deadline to file in Nevada?
Generally 2 years from the date of the accident or death. Some claims involving government defendants have shorter notice deadlines (as short as 6 months). Don't wait to call.
Will Robert Cottle work on my case personally?
Robert reviews every new matter and tries the firm's complex cases. Day-to-day handling is shared with his team, but the attorney of record stays accessible — clients consistently report direct calls and texts back.
Do you handle cases outside of Las Vegas?
Yes. The firm represents clients across Clark County and statewide, and Robert is also admitted in Utah.
