Truck Accident Attorneys

Representing Injured Clients in Alabama

Cunningham Bounds, LLC was founded in 1958 by Robert T. Cunningham, Sr. and Richard Bounds as a local general practice.  In 1973, our firm began exclusively representing injured plaintiffs.

We continue this tradition today by advocating for victims of catastrophic injuries caused by commercial truck crashes, defective products, work-related accidents, and medical malpractice.

The legal team at Cunningham Bounds is made up of 18 attorneys and a full-time investigative unit that includes former law enforcement agents.  In order to provide our clients with the best service possible, we also maintain a support staff of more than 30 people.

Verdicts for the Injured in Alabama

The dedicated advocates at Cunningham Bounds are known for their experience and the results they have achieved.  Our lawyers have participated in hundreds of courtroom cases that have resulted in record-breaking decisions:

• Obtained the 3rd largest verdict awarded to an individual in the United States in 2008
• Obtained the 7th largest verdict awarded to an individual in the United States in 2007
• Obtained the 15th largest verdict in the United States in 2007

Our firm is known for presenting well-organized cases at trial and for not being afraid to take on large corporations.  We have the experience and resources to level the playing field between trucking companies and our clients.

The firm served as the lead counsel and lead trial counsel for the State of Alabama in their suit against ExxonMobil alleging oil and gas royalty fraud.  This case resulted in a jury verdict of $3.5 billion for the State.  The Supreme Court overturned the verdict and ordered a new trial.  The retrial resulted in a verdict and judgment in the amount of $11.9 billion for the State.  This is one of the largest verdicts ever rendered by a jury in the U.S.

Cunningham Bounds was also Lead Trial Counsel for a nationwide class of consumers against Masonite for selling defective building material. The firm obtained a jury verdict, which resulted in homeowners across the Country recovering nearly one billion dollars to date. This class action is believed to be one of the largest class action cases ever tried to a jury verdict in the United States.

A record of excellent results for our clients has earned us recognition in a number of publications, and many of our attorneys have received praise from independent evaluators.
