If you have been involved in a car accident, in Overland Park, Kansas, or anywhere in the state of Kansas, you are likely wondering how long it will take to resolve your claim. The answer is, it depends on the facts of your unique case. Typically, a car accident claim will settle between three and nine months from the date of the accident and the completion of your medical care. Should your case go to trial, it may take your case one or two years to resolve. In some instances, a case may take much longer than another  (ex. where multiple defendants involved). 

You should be careful when considering a settlement offer from the insurance company, immediately following your accident. The insurance company will take advantage of your circumstance and desire to settle quickly and, for that reason, offer you less than you would otherwise be entitled to. Our office has settled claims that  increased 3 to 15 times when we began representing our clients. You have more questions and we have the answers. Call us today, Attorney T.

If you are injured in a car wreck, in Kansas, you are somewhat covered. That is because all Kansas car insurance policies must have no-fault benefits, called personal injury protection (PIP); therefore, regardless of whether the other driver has insurance you first file the claim with your personal insurance. Uninsured and underinsured motorist protection will also cover you if the other driver has some insurance, but not enough to pay for the full cost of your injuries. Similarly, if you are involved in an accident, with a hit-and-run driver, and that driver is never found, you can claim your uninsured motorist benefits (a driver who cannot be found is considered uninsured by default). While this may seem simple, making sure your claim is quickly resolved, your medical bills are paid and your all of your damages are covered can quickly become complex.
