Assisting You With Every Aspect Of A Car Accident Claim

Every driver has a responsibility to handle his or her vehicle in a manner that ensures the safety of everyone else on the road. When drivers fail to fulfill that responsibility, it can lead to serious accidents that put innocent people at risk.


If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a car accident, it is important that you seek the advice of a qualified personal injury attorney as soon as possible.


At the law firm of Kelly, Reed & Jansen, our team of lawyers represents injury victims in a wide variety of accident cases. We understand the types of injuries that can happen in a particular type of accident, and we know what kind of compensation is typically needed to facilitate a victim’s recovery. We will be diligent in our pursuit of full compensation for all of your losses.

Skillful Representation In All Types Of Auto Accident Claims

No matter what type of accident you were involved in, even if you were partially at fault, you have the right to seek compensation. The insurance companies representing the negligent driver will do anything possible to place the blame on your shoulders in order to avoid paying your claim. We will fight to see that your rights are protected to the fullest possible extent.


We are prepared to represent you in any car accident case, including the following:


Helping You Address Your Catastrophic Injuries

While most car accidents may qualify as fender benders that result in minor bruises and abrasions, more serious collisions, such as those involving semitrucks and other large vehicles, can result in catastrophic injuries, including:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Whiplash and other neck injuries
  • Head traumas
  • Severed appendages
  • Damage to internal organs
  • Serious burn injuries
  • Spinal cord and back injuries

Individuals with catastrophic injuries oftentimes never fully recover after an accident and may need multiple or extensive surgeries, in-home medical devices, multiple physical therapy sessions and long-term medical care just to return to a semi-normal life.

The financial impact of a catastrophic injury is tremendous and should be covered by the at-fault driver’s insurance. Far too often, insurers try to lowball settlement offers, which is something our lawyers fight to prevent.

Holding A Bar Or Restaurant At Fault

In Missouri, bars, restaurants and other venues that serve alcohol can be held liable for the injuries or wrongful death of a person if there is convincing evidence proving that the seller knowingly served a patron who was “visibly intoxicated.” By definition in the state statute, this means a person’s actions are visibly significantly uncoordinated because of their level of inebriation.
