Legal Matters Our Firm Handles
At Privette Law Office, an experienced legal advocate can help guide you through legal matters such as the following.
Personal Injury
If you or a loved one have suffered injuries due to the negligent or careless actions of another party, let an attorney from Privette Law Office help you seek the compensation and justice you deserve for your financial, physical, and emotional losses. Our firm advocates for victims and families in personal injury claims such as:
- Car accidents

Workers’ Compensation
In Missouri, most employees who suffer work-related injuries or occupational illnesses have the right to seek workers’ compensation benefits that help pay for medical care and compensate them for lost wages from missed work.
However, employers and insurers sometimes make it hard for injured workers to obtain the financial relief they need by denying claims or downplaying injuries. Our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys defend the rights of hardworking residents across Springfield who have been hurt on the job. We hold employers and insurers accountable for providing the benefits our clients need.
Sexual Assault and Abuse
Sexual assault and abuse can inflict physical and emotional trauma that may never truly heal. While the criminal justice system may punish a perpetrator for what they’ve done to society, assault and abuse survivors also have the right to seek accountability and compensation for what they themselves were made to endure. They can do so regardless of whether their attacker faces prosecution, conviction, or time behind bars.
If you have suffered because of sexual abuse or assault, let an attorney from Privette Law Office advocate for your rights. We will take the time to listen to your story, understand your concerns and needs, and develop a strategy to help you move forward.
