Our personal injury firm is 100 percent dedicated to fighting for the rights of people who have sustained injury and loss as a result of another's negligence. We understand the true costs of the unique challenges you face. Medical costs are astronomical today, and victims typically face significant emotional, physical and financial difficulties, including the very real possibility of bankruptcy.
Car accidents are the most common cause of personal injuries throughout Kansas City, but our attorneys represent personal injury victims of all types of negligent accidents, including fatal accidents, in both Missouri and Kansas. Other examples include construction accidents, motorcycle accidents, defective product incidents, medical malpractice and nursing home abuse/neglect, all of which can leave victims with devastating or even fatal injuries.
Our firm also specializes in resolving insurance claims for people who are having issues getting the insurance company to pay the full damages they deserve. When you are an innocent victim and your life has been disrupted, you should not be held liable for the often overwhelming costs associated with medical treatment, lost income and more.
As caring and compassionate personal injury lawyers, our experience and skill make it possible for us to maximize the results you deserve and expect.
Our top priority is to win the full compensation you deserve, whether through negotiation with the insurance company or litigation. Speak with us before agreeing to anything with an insurance company representative or making a recorded statement.
Our legal guidance, support and advocacy will protect your rights and advance your interests aggressively. Fighting for justice on your own is tough. Laws often change, insurance defense teams are incredibly talented and well-financed, and the amount of paperwork and investigation necessary to win is monumental.
Without an experienced attorney on your side, the insurance company will use every tactic available to undervalue your claim, minimize any future costs you may hope to get covered and perhaps get away with paying you nothing.
Our attorneys are skilled negotiators, capable of getting the insurance company to treat you fairly. Should it become necessary to file a personal injury lawsuit, our skills in the courtroom and reputation with judges are outstanding. The personalized legal representation we offer you is unsurpassed.
