Act Now! Understanding the Importance of Time Limits on Personal Injury Cases in Kansas

Under Kansas Statutes section 60-513, the statute of limitations on personal injury cases is two years, which means you only have two years from the day of your injury to file a claim. Failing to do so within the defined period may result in losing your right to seek compensation. However, there are exceptions to this rule, and an attorney from our firm can help you understand if you qualify for an extension to the statute of limitations. Don't wait until it's too late - act now.

Compensation Available in a Personal Injury Case

At Ralston, Pope & Diehl, LLC, we understand how overwhelming it can be to deal with the aftermath of an accident. If you have been injured in an accident due to another person's negligence, you may be entitled to recover damages through a personal injury lawsuit. Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be able to seek various types of compensation for the losses you have suffered.

Compensatory Damages: Compensatory damages are intended to compensate the injured party for any financial losses and other expenses that resulted from the accident. This includes:

Economic Damages: These damages compensate the injured party for any monetary losses caused by the accident, such as:

• Past and future medical expenses
• Past or future lost wages

Non-Economic Damages: These damages compensate the injured party for non-monetary losses that resulted from the accident, such as:

• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of enjoyment of life

Punitive Damages: In some cases, punitive damages may be awarded. Unlike compensatory damages, their main purpose is to act as a punishment against the negligent party or to send a message to the community. Punitive damages are not intended to compensate the injured party for specific losses.

Our attorneys work diligently to protect your rights and help you recover the compensation you deserve, so you can focus on your recovery. Unlike insurance companies, we fight to ensure you receive adequate compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other losses resulting from the accident.

Tirelessly Advocating on Behalf of Our Clients

At Ralston, Pope & Diehl, LLC, we are true advocates fighting on your side for your best interests. Insurance companies, on the other hand, are looking out for their company's profits rather than your recovery needs after an accident. Even if you feel fine after an accident, injuries can become more severe days or weeks after the accident – so always seek medical attention first. Our firm will help you fight for compensation to cover the full scope of your medical expenses.

Our firm works hard to provide compassionate and effective legal representation to every client. We are committed to fighting for victims. If you have any questions about filing a personal injury claim, feel free to contact us online or at (785) 200-9465 to schedule a consultation.
