I've been told my case is only worth 3x my medical bills. Is this true? ANSWER: No. Many factors come into consideration as to what your case is worth. Ultimately, if your case is not settled beforehand, a judge or jury can consider all the evidence, and award you a reasonable amount for your injuries. They, as well as the attorneys involved, can consider the type of injury or injuries you suffered, did someone die as a result, the amount of your treatment bills or funeral expenses incurred, all lost wages or income you have lost out on, pain and suffering you have endured, and whether you have permanent injury, disfigurement or impairment as a result of the accident. As your attorneys, we use our knowledge of the law, experience with prior cases and their settlement values, as well as our knowledge of the local judges and juries, in determining a reasonable settlement range for your case. Our job is to ultimately get your case into that reasonable settlement range with the opposing insurance company, if not more. Many times, the ultimate settlement value for our clients is well in excess of 3x their medical bills. This is why we do not use this as a rule in determining settlement value in our clients' cases.

The at-fault driver does not have insurance. What do I do? ANSWER: In situations where the at-fault party either has no insurance, or not enough insurance, then we next look to your own insurance company for additional UM or UIM coverage. UM (uninsured motorist) and UIM (under-insured motorist) coverage provides you with protection in these types of situations. BUT BEWARE. Before you can release an at-fault driver for their insurance policy limit, Kansas law requires you give notice to your own UIM carrier and allow it 60 days to substitute the BI carrier's tender of policy limits. If you violate this rule, you can extinguish your UIM coverage which is not in your financial interest.

Why do you need an experienced, motor vehicle accident attorney? In addition to taking matters off your chest which allows you to focus on your recovery, another benefit of having experienced counsel represent your interests is that we handle all aspects of your claim, including your third-party liability claim, your first party no-fault PIP and/or Med Pay claim(s), and any UM/UIM (uninsured and underinsured motorist) claims if applicable. We also handle all prospective lien claims from your health insurer and PIP insurer. Depending on the size of recovery, we also routinely help clients structure their settlements which more fits with their long-term needs and goals. All these legal services are covered by your one-time contingency fee paid from your case when we make a recovery for you.
Need cash now? Kansas, Missouri and Texas law allows for certain no-fault PIP benefits, and/or 1st party Med Pay benefits, to be paid to you now, not later. As part of our representation of you, we get these benefits going for you and your family.

I was injured in a Kansas car accident and have ambulance and medical bills. Who pays for all these bills? ANSWER: If you live in Kansas and were injured in a car wreck anywhere, OR you live outside of Kansas but your car wreck was in Kansas, the primary payer of your bills will be your own car insurance company. They usually pay $4,500, but it could be more. Then your health insurance pays after that. Legally speaking, the at-fault driver and insurance company are not legally obligated to pay your bills until either 1) you reach a settlement with them, or 2) you obtain a judgment against them. As it sometimes can take months if not years to make a recovery against the at-fault driver and their insurance company, it is important to submit bills for payment to your own companies as soon as they are incurred. Your car insurance company and possibly your health care company will then carry liens against your third-party recovery against the at-fault driver. We handle these PIP and ERISA health care liens on your behalf at the end of your case. We charge no additional fee for this task.

Missouri electrocution death cases at Lake of the Ozarks and other Missouri and Kansas bodies of water.
With more shoreline than California along the Pacific Ocean, the 58,000-acre Lake of the Ozarks in central Missouri is a mecca for boaters and homeowners with large private docks. Under its license from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Ameren UE of St. Louis is responsible for stewardship of the lake, which includes issuing permits for docks, seawalls and decks along the coves and inlets of its 1,150 miles of shoreline. According to Ameren UE, there are over 25,000 docks on Lake of the Ozarks. These tens-of-thousands of residential docks, as well as the hundreds of docks owned and operated by commercial bars, restaurants and marinas located on the water, are all subject to the jurisdiction and rules published by Ameren UE.
https://www.ameren.com/.../lake.../dock-requirements-safety
Most home owners and business owners follow the rules and properly build and maintain their docks. However, many do not and most summers witness more than one vacationer being injured, or worse electrocuted and killed around docks at Lake of the Ozarks. Similar events unfortunately occur at other lakes across Missouri and Kansas. When docks are properly built, wired and maintained according to the National Electrical Code, events such as this should not occur.
Shields Law Group and Missouri electrocution death attorney Spencer Shields have experience with representing family members who have had a loved one electrocuted and killed at Lake of the Ozarks. Our firm handled and prosecuted the law suit filed in Camden County, MO on behalf of a 21-year old boy who was electrocuted and killed while swimming off a dock at Lake of the Ozarks in 2015. In reaching a $1.8 Million recovery for the boy’s surviving family, it was timely investigated and alleged that errors were made while re-wiring the dock.
A proper investigation is needed by independent, electrical experts immediately following an electrocution and death by drowning case at Lake of the Ozarks, or any body of water for that matter. Shields Law Group only works with industry leading experts, such as SEMKE https://semke.com/ whose electrical engineers were instrumental in building a liability case in the above incident.
Shields Law Group and Missouri and Kansas electrocution death attorney Spencer Shields have successfully handled electrocution wrongful death cases and are available to discuss you or your family’s case if injured or electrocuted on or around a dock. Call Shields Law Group now at (816) 421-0800 (Missouri) or (913) 393-2080 (Kansas), or email Mr. Shields privately at [email protected] to discuss your situation further.

What is a Structured Settlement? Many personal injury and wrongful death cases involve minors, or a child younger than 18 years of age. When children are injured and recovering money, a court must first approve the settlement as in the best interests of the child. From experience, a reviewing judge's primary concern is that the child's funds be protected until he or she reaches the age of majority, which is 18 in most states. Spencer Shields and Shields Law Group have over 25 years experience handling wrongful death and minor settlements. We traditionally utilize structured settlements in situations such as this, where most if not all of the child's funds are placed into an annuity or other interest bearing account, until he or she reaches 18. At 18, payments start to come to our client, and best yet the growth on these investments is tax free under IRS guidelines. The child's funds are safely invested, earn income tax free, and upon reaching 18, they then can receive their settlement funds either all at once or in staggered payments. We have a 100% approval rate with reviewing Courts having our minor clients' settlement funds structured in this fashion. And parents love it because it takes the issue of "what to do" off of them.

I've been injured in a Kansas car wreck and told Kansas is a no-fault state. Can I recover from the driver who caused the accident? The answer is "yes". "No-fault" is simply a statutory scheme that allows you, as the injured driver or passenger, to get certain medical and lost wage benefits paid from your own insurance company, while you wait for a recovery from the at-fault driver. Your medical bills are first paid by your car insurance company, then after you make a recovery from the negligent driver, your insurance company has a PIP lien which we resolve for you as part of our representation of you. Health care companies are also granted certain rights under both state and federal law which need to be dealt with. In any event, the at-fault driver who caused the wreck remains negligent and you can ultimately recover all your damages allowed under the law.
Shields Law Group LLC and its attorneys have combined handled over 1,000 car wreck cases over the past twenty five years. If you or your loved one have been severely injured in a car wreck, call now for a free consultation with an experienced car wreck attorney.
