Kansas City Truck Crash Attorneys
We understand the devastation of a trucking accident. In a collision with a tractor trailer or other large commercial vehicle, the occupants of the car suffer terrible injuries if not death. Recovery takes months or the damage is permanent. How do you even begin to put your body and your life back together?
Many families have put their trust in the experienced personal injury lawyers of Dempsey & Kingsland, P.C. We have obtained large settlements and jury awards in truck accident cases across the greater Kansas City area and surrounding counties of Missouri and Kansas.
Time is Critical — Securing full compensation for truck crash injuries is a race against time. Call us immediately at 816.421.6868 to start the investigation.
Aggressive and Sophisticated Representation
Representatives of the trucking company and its insurance carrier are quickly on the scene. We need to get there promptly with professional investigators and accident reconstruction experts of our own. We get photos and video of the wreckage, locate witnesses and have the semi truck inspected before it is hauled away and repaired.
Trial lawyers Lee Dempsey and Bob Kingsland have handled numerous commercial trucking accidents in their 50 years of combined experience. They leave no stone unturned in building a case for liability — driver's logbooks, "black box" data recorders, driver history, past DOT violations, Highway Patrol reports and other evidence of the negligence:
- Driver error, speeding or fatigue
- Overweight or improperly loaded trucks
- Bad brakes, tires or lights
- Inadequate training
Comprehensive Compensation
Once liability is established, we focus on the long-term needs of the victim and family in the aftermath of the crash. How big are the medical bills? Can our client return to the same job? Was there a major injury resulting in permanent disability? Will there be future surgery, rehab or special care? Our attorneys meet with family members to ensure that a personal injury or wrongful death settlement covers all these bases.
