How Can I Be Compensated For A Personal Injury
Claim?

  • After an injury which you believe was caused by
    anothers negligence, you may be eligible to file
    a personal injury claim and seek compensation for
    your
  • Pain and suffering
  • Medical bills
  • Property damage
  • A crucial part of making your claim successful is
    doing the right things right after the accident.
    That is why it is essential that you have an
    understanding of the situation and your injuries
    so that you can do the right thing and act
    accordingly.
  • Here are a few things that everyone should do
    following an accident.

3
Calling the Police
  • One of the most important factors in determining
    fault after the accident is directly related to
    the police that was on the scene right after the
    accident happened. With that in mind, be sure to
    call 911 as soon as you are able to, or ask
    someone around you or do it if you are unable to
    do it due to your injuries suffered in an
    accident.
  • Once the police arrive, talk to them and help
    them understand how the accident happened and
    what caused it. Once they write a report, ask for
    a copy of it and pass it to your attorney
    afterward.

4
Know The Full Value Of Your Claim
  • Never accept less than what you deserve. In this
    case, do not settle for less than you actually
    deserve. The other partys insurance company may
    approach you with several different offers at the
    start, all seeming good enough. In reality,
    these offers are not even close to what you
    should really receive for your damages. Do not
    rush to accept a settlement before consulting
    with your attorney.

5
Medical Treatment
  • It is essential (for your general wellbeing and
    your case) to visit the hospital or another
    healthcare facility right after the accident.
    That way you will prevent any serious injuries
    from developing and receive treatment for any
    existing injuries. On top of that, your doctor
    will write a report which will be the evidence
    that your attorney needs to prove that you
    suffered injuries from that particular accident.
    Ask for a copy of the medical report.

6
Hire An Attorney
  • If your case goes to court, you will have an
    experienced attorney in your corner protecting
    and fighting for your legal rights. Contact a
    Kansas City Personal Injury Lawyers and schedule
    an initial (completely free) consultation with no
    legal obligation. Their attorneys will evaluate
    your case, and investigate the accident to
    determine fault. Also, they will negotiate the
    settlement with the insurance company ensuring
    that you are paid what you are owed for your
    damages.
