Wichita Personal Injury Lawyer

Most people in Kansas do not feel comfortable filing a personal injury lawsuit or speaking to an attorney after they or a loved one has sustained a serious personal injury such as a slip and fall, car accident, work injury or an injured at a place of business. The problem arises when you or a loved one is injured and you expect that the negligent party will be fair and compensate you for your medical bills, lost wages, property damages, pain and suffering. Then you may have been surprised to learn how many insurance claims are nearly impossible to settle on your own and without legal representation.

Keep in mind, all insurance companies are "for profit" companies and they are usually under staffed and are less likely to respond quickly to pay on a claim. In fact, most insurance adjusters are trained to try and find any possible way to refuse payment on a personal injury claim. This includes offering "low ball" settlement offers, refuting causation, blaming you for the injury, or simply electing to not pay your claim altogether.

When you are injured, speaking to an attorney does not mean you have to file a lawsuit right away or that you even need to hire an attorney to represent you. Speaking to a lawyer about your personal injury is a good way to make sure that your legal rights are protected and that you understand the process of getting reimbursed for your lost wages, medical expenses, pain and suffering.

The most important thing to consider when you have been injured is understanding that time limit you have to bring a lawsuit in the event it is necessary to file suit. In Kansas, there are different time limits for different types of injury claims. The shortest period of time is 1 year from the time of your injury.

Another thing to consider when thinking about speaking to an attorney about your persona injury case is the need for a comprehensive medical examination and medical treatment. Most people try to deal with the pain because they do not have medical insurance and this can really put you in a financial and health crisis. Many injuries may seem less serious at first but can become very serious if left untreated.
