About Kyle
Biography
I approach every case with relentless dedication and the same compassion I would show my own family. While I have recovered more than $80 million for my clients, what truly sets me apart is not just the results—it’s the way I practice law. At The Cottner Firm, every client has an open line of communication directly with me. You will never be passed off to a paralegal or non-attorney case manager, because I believe your case deserves my personal attention from start to finish. Every client receives my personal cell phone number and is encouraged to reach out anytime with questions or concerns.
I have always believed that keeping my finger on the pulse of every case and going the extra mile is what separates a good recovery from a great recovery. And why would you ever settle for anything less than great? When you work with me, you don’t just get an attorney—you get a dedicated advocate who will fight for you, keep you informed, and treat you with the respect, honesty, and compassion you deserve.

Mr. Cottner was the best lawyer I could have asked for. Not only did he help me feel comfortable throughout the process by keeping me updated he got better results than I could have expected. He genuinely cares and I would recommend him to anyone that needs a lawyer
