Practice Areas Description

Kenner Schmitt Nygaard LLC provides legal representation and services in the following areas of practice:

- Personal Injury

When you or a family member is the victim of a motorcycle, car, truck or railroad accident, a dangerous product, a swimming pool accident, or other unsafe situation on public or private property, you should be compensated for your loss. To compound the uncertainty you have as a result of your injury many times the insurer representing the other party may take action which substantially increases the difficulty and stress of the situation. Such action might include insisting on a recorded statement from you or demanding unfettered access to all of your medical records. When you have been injured or the insurance company is making demand upon you, our firm is here to assist in regaining control of your claim and your lawsuit.

- Medical Malpractice

When doctors and health care providers make mistakes, families can suffer. Birth injuries often result in lifelong disabilities and high hospital bills. A misdiagnosis can leave you dependent on costly medical care. It's your right to be compensated for losses like these. We can help you determine whether or not medical malpractice has occurred when you or someone you love has been injured as a result of negligence or misconduct of medical professionals. This is what we do, and we want to use our expertise to help people put their lives back together after a medical mistake.

- Insurance Disputes

Insurance disputes often arise as a result of insurance companies interpreting policies to minimize their required payment. Many times insurance companies will wrongfully deny policyholders benefits to which an individual is entitled. This issue can occur with automobile insurance including liability, uninsured and underinsured coverages. Insurance disputes are also common with homeowners policies and business commercial policies. If the insurance company has denied a claim please don't assume they are correct. We provide the legal counsel and support staff that is absolutely necessary for the client to fully understand his or her rights and obligations under the insurance policy and make the most informed decision. We have a national reputation regarding insurance litigation and interpretation of insurance policies and can assist you in obtaining the money owed under the policy.

- Product Liability

A product liability lawsuit involves injury caused by a defective product. A defective product is one that is not reasonably safe for its intended use. An intended use of a product includes all those uses a reasonably prudent person might make of the product, bearing in mind its characteristics, warnings and labels. Companies sued in product liability cases include the manufacturer of the defective product, the wholesaler or distributor of the product and often the retailer of the product.

- Class Action Lawsuit

The Kenner Schmitt Nygaard Law Firm has worked with attorneys across the country in representing large groups of investors or insurance policyholders who were defrauded. The firm also represents consumers and businesses which have been the victims of fraud, price fixing schemes, or other anti-competitive practices. Often many investors come to us complaining about the same security, the same misrepresentations made by the same broker or brokerage firm, or the same inaccurate and misleading sales presentations by insurance agents. In these situations, it is more efficient to represent a large group of similarly-situated plaintiffs in a class action. The Kenner Schmitt Nygaard Law Firm has been successful in representing plaintiffs in many class actions, both in the Midwest and in many other states.

- Securities Litigation

We are dedicated to representing consumers and victims of fraud. We have recovered millions of dollars for defrauded investors in securities lawsuits and arbitration proceedings. We represent individual investors, trusts, pension plans, and insurance policyholders. We believe that Americans who lose their savings due to the fraudulent actions of securities firms deserve the highest quality of legal representation.

- Car Accident

When you or a family member have been injured in an auto accident, you need effective representation by a competent Kansas City car accident attorney. Depending on the seriousness of your injuries, you may be unable to work either for the short term or for the rest of your life. By choosing a qualified team of Kansas City car accident lawyers, you can be sure you will get fairly compensated for any and all costs related to your injuries.

- Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect

When you suspect abuse or neglect of an elderly loved one, a competent Kansas City nursing home attorney will help you sort it all out and advise you of rights your loved one has. Unfortunately today, too many nursing homes are guilty of not providing the quality care for our loved ones that we expect; a team of experienced Kansas City nursing home lawyers will work to ensure that your loved one is compensated for any injuries suffered or wrong-doing that has taken place in an elder care facility.
