Our client, a schoolteacher, was struck head-on by a tree-trimming truck that crossed into her lane. This collision caused her to spend 4 days in KU Medical Center, where she was treated for a concussion, broken facial bones, and the loss of her left eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Due to the severity of the injuries, we were able to get $500,000 from the tree-trimming company and an additional $50,000 from the truck driver\u2019s coverage, for a total of $550,000 in settlement<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, our work was not over yet. Our client\u2019s health insurance came from her employer. The insurance company claimed that they were to be reimbursed for the total settlement since they were covering the injured victim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We would not let our client lose her compensation. We were able to demonstrate through Kansas law that they had no claim over our client\u2019s settlement, and that she would keep the remaining compensation after paying for the medical bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSometimes, our job isn\u2019t getting you the money you deserve; it\u2019s helping you keep that money.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nAttorney Jason Moore<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our client, a schoolteacher, was struck head-on by a tree-trimming truck that crossed into her lane.
