Kansas City Hit and Run Accident Lawyer

Your victimization stops here and now.

We understand that hit and run car accidents can make you feel like a victim multiple times over.

You did nothing wrong, yet you’re stuck with the consequences. Sadly, many personal injury law firms further victimize their clients by aiming to settle their cases quickly and cheaply. We dig deeper because we care what happens to you, and we fight harder because it matters.

Your victimization will stop the moment we start on your case. MRH Injury Law is a Kansas City personal injury firm that uncovers what others miss, prepares every case for trial, and supports clients through every step of the process. Our hit and run accident lawyers are aggressive litigators and compassionate people. We dig deeper to investigate further, identify exactly what happened, and work to find the hit and run driver whenever possible.

If it comes down to using your own insurance, we fight harder to protect your outcome at every step. We will force your insurance company to pay all the uninsured motorist coverage you’re entitled to, and we will ensure they don’t raise your rates. Legally, they are not allowed to do so.

Group 9 Group 9

Hit and run car accidents can make you feel like a victim multiple times over. You get unfairly stuck with the consequences – and the blame. You may even have to fight your own insurance company to get the uninsured motorist coverage you’re entitled to.

That’s where MRH Injury Law is different. We are a trial-focused Kansas City personal injury firm that uncovers what others miss, prepares every case for trial, and supports clients through every step of the process.

We dig deeper because we care what happens to you. We fight harder because it matters. Unfortunately, many personal injury law firms aim to settle cases as quickly and cheaply as possible. Not us.

We have handled hundreds of insurance claims and uncovered millions of dollars that insurance companies have owed our clients. We know the scams insurance companies employ and will force them to uphold their promises to you.

We will help you get a rental car and fight off debt collectors too. Because our goal is always to empower you and help you through the entire healing process, not just the legal process.

How can I know MRH Injury Law has my best interest?
Group 9 Group 9

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 dig deeper and fight harder to maximize the compensation we recover for each.

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

What should I do immediately after a hit and run car accident?
Group 9 Group 9

Top priority is always to move to a safe location and check for injuries. Beyond that:

  1. Call the law enforcement immediately, make sure a report is made and ask for a copy – A police report helps provide objective evidence about how a car 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 car 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 of your car before it is totaled – Seeing the damage to a car has a big impact on people, including insurance adjusters and juries. Being able to show them how damaged your car was 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 hit and run accident lawyers as soon as possible – so we can develop a proactive litigation strategy before valuable evidence disappears
How much hit and run compensation could I get?
Group 9 Group 9

Each case is unique, but our hit and run lawyers are committed to digging deeper and uncovering your maximum compensation. We will thoroughly explore compensation for:

  • Medical expenses – reimbursement for past and future medical bills
  • Lost wages – compensation for income lost during recovery
  • Property damage – reimbursement for vehicle and property damage
  • Pain and suffering – damages for physical and emotional distress
  • Emotional distress – additional compensation for psychological impact
  • Loss of consortium – compensation for the impact on spousal relationships
  • Wrongful death damages – in fatal accidents, compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and emotional distress
  • Punitive damages – awarded in cases of egregious conduct

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?
