Serious Motor Vehicle Accidents

Experienced Motor Vehicle Accident Attorneys

At The Law Offices of N. Trey Pettlon, III, our attorneys help people with serious injuries caused by any type of motor vehicle accident. We have helped people recover compensation for their injuries, past and future medical bills, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, lost income and future earnings.  To get this done effectively, it is important to move fast...the insurance company will.  The insurance adjusters for the other driver aren’t there to help your case...quite the opposite.  Discuss the case with us before you discuss it with the other driver's insurance company.  We can meet with you at our office, your home or even the hospital.

We will put together a team of medical experts that may include orthopedic surgeons, plastic surgeons, nurses and psychiatrists, and in some cases, put together a life care plan to help illustrate to a jury what the accident has caused them and their family. In some situations we will employ accident reconstruction experts and economists to get the best result possible in your case.

Car Wrecks

The roads seem to be getting more and more dangerous with each passing year.  Young, inexperienced drivers, aggressive drivers and inattentive drivers cobine to create a recipe for disaster if you or your loved one happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Good driving takes experience...it's the same with good lawyering.  If your world has been turned upside down by a car accident, you need an attorney who has represented clients in the same situation before.  During the jury trial is not the time to find out your attorney has never or has only rarely tried a case before a jury...you can bet the insurance company's attorney is aware of it.  Trey Pettlon has helped many, many people in automobile accident injury law suits over the years.  He's helped them settle their cases...and he has represented them recover for their injuries in jury trial. 

We represent people who have suffered serious personal injury  such as broken bones, paralysis and severe brain injuries in collisions, or the families of victims who have died car wrecks caused by the negligence of another driver.  A car accident caused by careless or reckless driving can be devastating.  It can change your life forever.  Our goal is to help you put your life back together.

Truck Accidents

The roads in Kansas City are dangerous even when drivers are attentive and obey the traffic rules. There is heavy construction on the major highways in an around Kansas City making them even more dangerous. When the accident involves a truck driver who is driving too fast for conditions, not keeping a proper look out or otherwise violating traffic ordinances, the consequences can be devastating, the damages significant and the litigation can be difficult. The cause of the accident can be the carelessness of the truck driver caused by aggressive driving or fatigue due to failure to take required rest stops. It could be defective brakes or other mechanical problems.

Trucking accident cases usually involve sophisticated legal defense teams with substantial resources for defense experts and exhibits.  You will want an attorney representing you who has faced them before and will use whatever resources are necessary to fight back and win your case.  Trey has the experience a trial attorney can only get by having several jury trials in cases involving serious personal injury. Trey has represented people in several serious trucking accidents, including clients in state and federal court and helped clients settle their cases and tried cases to juries. 

Motorcycle Accidents

Trey rides a motorcycle himself, and understands that accidents with motorcycles happen even with the most attentive, careful rider.  The rider is, of course, not protected by a metal frame like the passenger in a car, or a seat belt or air bag, and the other vehicle is likely much heavier.  Consequently, the injuries a motorcycle rider may suffer in an accident are more likely to cause death or other serious injuries such as brain damage, loss of limbs and permanent scarring

We have helped clients who were seriously injured or killed as a result of motorcycle accidents in Kansas, Missouri and other states.  We will work with experts to understand your accident, you injuries and your case.  Contact a trial attorney who is experienced in handling serious motor vehicle accidents involcing severe injuries and death.
