Product Liability
When an individual’s life is cut short because of negligence or wrongful conduct, surviving family members are left to cope with intense grief and personal upheaval. These family members deserve empathy, answers, and justice.

Medical Malpractice
A 2016 study by John Hopkins Medicine showed that medical errors resulted in more than 250,000 deaths annually. This makes it the third-leading cause of death in the United States. Establishing a medical malpractice case can be complex, but a personal injury attorney in Kansas City provides guidance throughout the process.
