Auto/Car Accidents

Kansas City Auto Accidents Attorneys

Far and above all other types of personal injury, car accidents are the most common, with more claims filed than for any other personal injury category. Statistics reveal that over 6 million car accidents occur in the U.S. every year, a staggering figure compared to other types of accidents.

All Missouri automobile drivers by law must carry minimum liability insurance. However, insurance companies are in the business of paying as little and as few claims as possible. Car accident victims frequently do not know how much they should be compensated for an injury and damages. When you combine a person's general lack of knowledge with an insurance company's reluctance to pay, the prospects for being awarded a fair recovery are not usually favorable. 

Hiring a personal injury lawyer at the outset of a car accident is often a wise decision, especially if substantial damage and injury are involved. Your attorney has knowledge regarding the statute of limitations for filing claims, can deal with insurance adjusters, assist in advising proper medical care documentation as well as interview witnesses and preserve evidence. In investigating and assigning liability for the accident, if other factors arise such as an automobile manufacturing defect or defective tires, your attorney will also be able to decide the most effective course of legal action to take.
