Kansas City Falling Objects Lawyer

Falling object injuries cases involve individuals behind harmed by objects that fall from a higher location. They are a subset of premises liability cases, which means the accident happened on someone else’s property or a public property.

They may involve a slip & fall or in serious cases, brain injuries.

Our Kansas City falling objects lawyers litigate the following types of falling objects injuries cases and more:

• Retail stores – merchandise, displays, or signage falling from shelves
• Warehouses – falling objects like boxes or goods
• Workplace injury – objects falling in offices or workplaces; often invoking Workers’ Compensation
• Outdoor areas – tree branches, signage, or objects falling in public spaces
• Residential buildings – items falling from balconies or windows
• Transportation incidents – cargo falling from trucks, trains, or other vehicles
• Construction sites or industrial settings – tools, equipment, materials, or debris falling from heights
• Crane accidents – objects falling during lifting operations

There is a science behind stocking shelves and securing inventory. Our falling objects injury attorneys have learned that science over our 40+ years of combined experience. We dig deeper because we care, and that means we know what records companies keep, how to get our hands on them, and how to prove that the company did or should’ve known it was putting its customers in danger. We fight harder because it matters.

Only property owners can stop these incidents before they happen. With your help, we will continue creating a community where property owners are motivated to make their businesses safe by thinking ahead and proactively preventing accidents.

Our Kansas City falling objects attorneys have taken numerous falling object cases to jury trial, and insurance companies know it. When they see us coming, they offer more money, earlier in the process.

Our attorneys will take care of you. We’ll dig deeper and fight harder to empower you and maximize your recoveries, financially and otherwise. Our empathetic and investigative approach sets us apart from most personal injury law firms who minimize their clients – taking the easy, surface-level money from as many cases as possible.

Our financial interests are aligned with yours. We don’t get paid unless you do

Beyond that, we are not a high-volume personal injury law firm. We don’t churn and burn clients. We take only the cases we believe in, and we invest considerable time and attention into maximizing the compensation we recover for each. We are a trial-focused firm that digs deeper, fights harder, and takes care of its clients.

We frequently take cases rejected by other law firms and settle them for millions of dollars.

Of course, top priority is always to get the medical attention needed. Beyond that:

1. Call the police immediately, make sure a report is made and ask for a copy – A police report helps provide objective evidence about how a premises liability accident happened and helps provide important information about the people involved
2. If you are hurt, seek medical attention immediately and do exactly what your doctor or health care provider tells you – Even if you have to go to a free medical clinic, taking care of your injuries and health problems is the most important thing to do after a premises liability accident because you need to understand your injuries and get help for them
3. Save all documents, including the police report, medical records, and repair estimates – Your lawyer will need to collect these documents and if you already have them, your case will move along much quicker
4. If possible, take photographs – Seeing the damage and aftermath has a big impact on people, including insurance adjusters and juries. This will greatly help your case.
5. Do not sign or agree to anything from an insurance company before you know your rights and speak to an attorney – Sometimes insurance companies will ask you to sign documents that will waive your right to other remedies or invite legal trouble down the road
6. Call our Kansas City falling object attorneys as soon as possible – so we can develop a proactive litigation strategy before valuable evidence disappears

Each case is unique, but our lawyers are committed to digging deeper and uncovering your maximum compensation. Our falling objects injury attorneys will thoroughly explore compensation for:

• Severity and long-term impact of the injury, regardless of medical expenses
• Medical expense reimbursement – including hospitalization, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing medical treatment
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Disability and impairment
• Rehabilitation and therapy costs
• Wrongful death damages – in the tragic event of a fatality, surviving family members may be eligible for compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and emotional distress
• Punitive damages – if the incident was particularly egregious, punitive damages may be awarded
• Legal fees – including attorney fees and court expenses

How much you get will depend on these 5 things:

1. How great are your losses?
2. How egregious is the liability?
3. Can the wrong-doer pay?
4. Where will you have to file suit?
5. Are you likeable?
