Lee's Summit Personal Injury Lawyer

When you are injured, no matter the circumstances, your injuries can have a serious and long-lasting impact on your life. When someone else causes the accident, it can be even more frustrating as your medical bills pile up, you keep missing work, and their insurance company or defense attorneys continue to downplay the severity of your situation and offer you shockingly low settlement amounts. Working with a personal injury lawyer is one of the best ways to push back against these ridiculous offers and work toward the money that you deserve, all while you are able to prioritize your recovery without being bogged down by the legal and administrative work your attorney will take on for you.

Automobile Collisions

Nobody pulls out of their driveway in the morning planning to get into a car wreck that day, but the reality is that nearly 16,500 car accidents take place EVERY DAY in the United States, with more than an average of 3,000 deaths each day as a result. Many of these collisions are caused by one driver acting recklessly or negligently and putting others at risk of serious injuries, and even death. The most common causes of automobile collisions in the United States include things like drunk driving, texting while driving (and many other distractions), speeding, road rage, and even mechanical failures.

Wrongful Death

A wrongful death case follows the same steps as any other personal injury case, except there are a number of additional damages we will seek on behalf of the surviving family members and beneficiaries. Insurance companies can prey on vulnerable claimants during this difficult time by offering settlements far below the amount they deserve and hope they are distracted enough to accept the offer without considering their options. If you have lost a loved one due to someone else’s recklessness, negligence, or even malice, contact our firm as soon as possible to speak with a member of our team about the support that we will be proud to provide you with during this difficult time.

Work Injuries

In Missouri and Kansas, the majority of workplace injuries are covered under workers’ compensation policies that employers are required to carry in nearly all situations. This policy acts as insurance for both the employees AND the employer since it acts as a no-fault insurance policy that pays out to injured employees no matter how the accident was caused and protects employers from being sued by employees for personal injuries. The damages covered under these policies are limited when compared to a tort claim, but we will help you pursue your claim and examine your case closely to identify all possible options in order to get you the most money possible.

Dog Bites

Missouri has what is known as a “strict liability” statute when it comes to dog attacks, meaning that no matter how many precautions the owner took to keep you safe from their animal, they are still liable for any injuries that their dog causes. Dog bites are dangerous, painful, and oftentimes traumatic, and we will help you make sense of your legal options and seek the most compensation available for you. No amount of money can take back this terrifying attack, but there is no reason that you should be financially responsible for the damages caused by that dog and their owner.

Slip and Fall Accidents

When you visit someone else’s property, whether government property, private property, public property, or a business location, you have every right to expect the property owners and managers have taken the appropriate precautions and maintenance steps to ensure your visit is free from an accident caused by avoidable hazards. In most cases, your visits to other properties are smooth and incident-free, but every day across the country people are injured by hazards like slippery wet floors, broken or icy stairs, and many other premises liability issues that are known collectively as “slip and fall” or “trip and fall” accidents. If you have been hurt by an accident caused by a hazard on someone else’s property, you may be able to seek compensation through a tort claim for which we will be happy to assist you with.

Semi Truck Accidents

Commercial truck drivers are required to have extensive licensing and certification in order to operate massive vehicles such as 18-wheelers and are professional drivers who take safety very seriously. That said, there is no certification or license that will guarantee a truck driver will never be involved in an accident. These large trucks can cause serious, even fatal, injuries to other drivers even at low speeds, so in a collision that may have been categorized as a “fender bender” between two passenger vehicles can prove fatal between two vehicles of such significant size differences.
