Slip & Fall Lawyer in Mt. Pleasant, IA
Serving the Injured with Seasoned Legal Help in Southeast Iowa
A slip and fall can happen in seconds due to a wet floor with no warning sign, a cracked sidewalk, or a poorly lit stairwell, but the aftermath can reshape your life for months or years. While you're dealing with pain, medical bills, and missed work, the property owner's insurance company is already working to minimize what they owe you.
Cornell Injury Law understands the stress and hardships you face during such critical times. Before turning to the law, Attorney Danny Cornell served as a pastor, counseling people through life challenges. That understanding and his ability to connect with people remain today, shaping how Danny and his team treat clients.
At our firm, we don’t see “cases,” but people. We build a legal strategy around what actually matters to you, not a one-size-fits-all playbook.
With decades of experience, Danny has the record to back up the compassion. However, what he's most proud of isn't the number on a settlement check. It's watching our clients get their lives back.

- Pain and suffering - Compensation for the physical pain and emotional toll of your injury
- Permanent impairment or disfigurement - Additional compensation if your injury results in lasting limitations or scarring
- Loss of enjoyment of life - If your injury prevents you from doing the things you once loved
Why Iowans Choose Danny Cornell

- Over $100 million recovered; Danny's track record speaks for itself, but he measures success by more than the settlement; it's whether a client can afford treatment, keep their home, and move forward with their life.

- Direct, responsive communication: You'll never wonder where your case stands. Danny remains accessible to you throughout the duration of your claim or lawsuit.
