MRH Injury Law is 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 know that overcoming bias requires more than simply presenting facts. It requires telling the full story of what happened and why.

Drawing on more than 40 years of combined experience, we investigate every detail, challenge unfair assumptions, and hold negligent drivers accountable. We will do whatever it takes to build your strongest case and pursue the maximum compensation available.

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 dig deeper because we care, and we fight harder because it matters.

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

In Missouri, riders aged 26 or older are not required to wear helmets if they have health insurance that covers injuries resulting from motorcycle accidents, or if they have passed a motorcycle safety course. However, all riders under 26 are mandated to wear helmets.

In Kansas, all riders under the age of 18 are required to wear helmets while operating or riding as passengers on motorcycles. Riders aged 18 and older are not mandated to wear helmets.

Our Kansas City motorcycle accident lawyers have seen a lot of injuries in our combined 40+ years. We strongly recommend helmets for every rider regardless of age.

Top priority is always to move to a safe location and check for injuries. 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 motorcycle 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 yourself and your motorcycle – Seeing the damage 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 motorcycle accident lawyers as soon as possible – se we can develop a proactive litigation strategy before valuable evidence disappears

MRH Injury Law finds source of compensation that other attorneys wouldn’t bother with. We may pursue the following people/entities:

• Driver – if he or she was driving distracted, failed to yield to a cyclist or failed to obey traffic laws, unsafely passed a biker, or hit a biker with a car door
• Vehicle owner – if the driver was using someone else’s vehicle
• Employer of the driver – if the driver was on the job when the accident occurred
• Manufacturer or maintenance provider – if the accident resulted from a defect in the car or a failure in maintenance such as faulty brakes
• Government entity – if the accident was caused by a road defect or poor road maintenance
• Case-specific entities/parties – for example, if a construction company’s actions contributed to the accident

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

• Damage to your motorcycle or other property
• Medical bills if the motorcycle accident caused injury including brain injuries, spinal cord and neck injuries, and more
• Lost wages if you had to miss work due to the motorcycle accident
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress resulting from the accident and/or injuries
• If a motorcycle accident is fatal, surviving loved ones may be entitled to wrongful death damages

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?
