Verdicts and Settlements

Case Results

Verdicts are decided usually in a jury trial. A jury trial is a legal proceeding in which a group of people, called a jury, is selected to hear the evidence and testimony presented in a case and then decide the facts. The jury's role is to determine whether the defendant is liable or not liable in civil cases.

What Are The First Three Things
To Do After An Accident?

01

Document Everything

Immediately take pictures & video. Documentation allows for better representation and a stronger case for you.

02

Call the Police

Do not assume that the other person involved will file the claim with the insurance company. This leaves it up to chance.

03

Seek Medical Attention

There are different forms of medical evidence that you need to collect. You need to get all medical treatment promptly. Without medical treatment, there is no case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the insurance company harass me during my personal injury case?

During a personal injury case in Kansas City, state laws prohibit insurance companies from engaging in deceptive or unfair practices, such as misrepresenting facts, delaying claims without reason, or pressuring you into low settlements. If you feel harassed, document all interactions, communicate in writing, and consider consulting a personal injury attorney to ensure your rights are protected. Complaints can also be filed with the Kansas Insurance Department or the Missouri Department of Insurance for further action.

Will the insurance company be able to look up and investigate my work history?

In Kansas City, insurance companies may investigate your work history to evaluate your personal injury claim, but they must comply with privacy laws and regulations. They can gather information relevant to your claim, such as employment status, income, and job duties, to assess the impact of your injury on your ability to work. However, they are prohibited from using deceptive or unfair practices under the Kansas Consumer Protection Act and must respect your rights to privacy and fair treatment during the investigation. If you have concerns, consult a personal injury attorney to protect your rights.

What is a subpoena?

A subpoena is a legal document issued by a court compelling an individual to testify as a witness at a deposition, hearing, or trial or to produce documents or evidence relevant to a legal proceeding. Governed by Kansas and Missouri state laws, subpoenas ensure that necessary information or testimony is available to support the judicial process. Failure to comply with a subpoena can result in legal penalties, including fines or contempt of court charges.

What if the negligent party does not have any insurance?

If the negligent party in Kansas City lacks insurance, you can still pursue compensation through other means, such as filing a lawsuit directly against them to seek damages. Your insurance policy also includes uninsured motorist coverage, which can help cover your losses. Kansas and Missouri laws mandate that insurance companies offer uninsured motorist coverage, providing a safety net. Consulting with a personal injury attorney can help you explore all available options to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Should I speak with the negligent party’s insurance company, as they keep calling me?

In Kansas City, it is generally advisable not to speak directly with the negligent party’s insurance company without consulting a personal injury attorney. While the insurance company may seem helpful, their goal is to minimize their payout. Kansas and Missouri laws protect you from unfair claims practices, and having an attorney can ensure your rights are upheld and that you don’t inadvertently jeopardize your claim. An attorney can handle communications on your behalf and negotiate a fair settlement.

What if my personal injury claim happened in another part of the state?

Suppose your personal injury claim occurred in another part of Kansas or Missouri; the same state laws apply, including those governing negligence, liability, and insurance practices. Regardless of where the injury happened, you can still seek legal assistance from a Kansas City attorney licensed to practice state-wide. They can help you navigate the legal process, ensuring compliance with local jurisdictional rules and maximizing your potential compensation.

How do I prove my personal injury claim?

To prove your personal injury claim in Kansas City, you must demonstrate that the negligent party owed you a duty of care breached that duty, and caused your injuries, resulting in damages. This involves gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and expert testimony. Kansas and Missouri laws require clear documentation and credible evidence to establish liability and the extent of your damages. Consulting a personal injury attorney can help you compile and present the necessary evidence to strengthen your case.

How soon should I get medical treatment after an accident?

In Kansas City, seeking medical treatment as soon as possible after an accident is crucial to ensure your health and strengthen your personal injury claim. Prompt medical attention addresses potential injuries and creates important medical records documenting the extent and cause of your injuries. Both Kansas and Missouri laws recognize the importance of timely medical treatment in establishing a direct link between the accident and your injuries, which is essential for recovering damages. Delaying treatment can harm your health and weaken your claim.

What exactly is a personal injury or a personal injury claim?

A personal injury in Kansas City refers to physical or emotional harm caused by another’s negligence or intentional actions, such as car accidents, slips and falls, or medical malpractice. A personal injury claim is a legal process where the injured party seeks compensation for damages from the responsible party. Under Kansas and Missouri laws, these claims require proving the other party’s fault and demonstrating the extent of your injuries and losses. Consulting with a personal injury attorney can help you navigate the legal complexities and pursue appropriate compensation.

What damages can I recover for my personal injury claim?

In Kansas City, you can recover various damages for your personal injury claim, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. Kansas and Missouri laws compensate for economic damages (like medical bills and lost income) and non-economic damages (such as pain and suffering). In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded if the defendant’s conduct was particularly egregious. Consulting with a personal injury attorney can help you identify and pursue all applicable damages to maximize your compensation.
