Services
Personal Injury
Our personal injury practice specializes in representing victims of negligence across Kansas. With over 40 years of experience, we handle car accidents, slip-and-falls, and workplace injuries, focusing on securing compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress. Our attorneys leverage deep knowledge of Kansas tort law and a proven trial record to negotiate with insurance companies or litigate when necessary. Clients benefit from our contingency fee model and personalized approach that prioritizes individual needs over case numbers.
Truck Accidents
Truck accident cases require specialized expertise in federal motor carrier regulations. Our firm investigates violations like driver fatigue, logbook falsification, and improper cargo loading to establish liability against trucking companies. With experience in complex litigation involving multiple parties, we pursue maximum compensation for catastrophic injuries while navigating intricate insurance policies. Our track record includes significant verdicts in truck collision cases involving spinal cord and brain injuries, ensuring clients receive resources for long-term recovery.
Wrongful Death
For families grieving loss due to negligence, we provide compassionate yet aggressive representation in wrongful death claims. Our attorneys handle cases arising from car accidents, nursing home neglect, and product defects, seeking compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering. We guide families through complex legal processes while respecting their emotional needs, with experience in both jury trials and negotiated settlements. Our approach balances legal rigor with sensitivity to survivors' unique circumstances.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accident cases demand specialized knowledge of both vehicle dynamics and bias against riders. We combat insurance company tactics that minimize rider safety, focusing on driver negligence and road hazard cases. Our attorneys understand the severe injuries common in motorcycle crashes, working with medical experts to document long-term impacts. With experience in jury trials and settlements, we ensure motorcyclists receive fair compensation for medical costs, lost earning capacity, and pain and suffering.
Defective Products
Our product liability practice holds manufacturers accountable for dangerous defects in consumer goods, automotive components, and pharmaceuticals. We investigate design flaws, manufacturing errors, and inadequate warnings through expert analysis and discovery processes. Cases often involve complex litigation against corporate defendants, requiring thorough documentation of injury causation and damages. Clients benefit from our experience in both individual claims and class-action litigation, with a focus on securing compensation for medical expenses and future care needs.

Questions
What should I do immediately after an accident?
Prioritize medical care, document the scene, collect witness information, and contact our firm before speaking with insurance companies to protect your rights.
Why do I need an attorney for my injury case?
Insurance companies employ teams to minimize payouts. Our experienced attorneys level the playing field, ensuring proper evidence collection, accurate damage assessment, and aggressive negotiation for fair compensation.
Can I still file a claim if I share fault for the accident?
Kansas follows comparative fault rules - if you're less than 50% at fault, you can recover damages proportionate to the other party's liability through our strategic legal representation.
How are attorney fees structured for injury cases?
We work on a contingency fee basis - no upfront costs. Our payment comes as a percentage of your settlement or verdict, ensuring access to justice regardless of financial situation.
