Insurance Claim

Cody L. Lamping and Steven H. Schuman may have insurance claims for the deaths of their loved ones. The police reported American Family as an insurance company involved. A lawyer will maximize the amount collected from the insurance company. In most cases, injured people can recover money for their medical bills, lost wages, and for their pain and suffering—even if a family member was driving. Getting a lawyer working on this case early will allow these individuals to receive advice about preserving and gathering evidence and the value of their claims, which will help with their recovery. If you hire a lawyer that focuses their practice on serious personal-injury and death cases in Kansas, you may be able to obtain compensation from the Kansas Automobile Assigned Claims Plan, a deliberately obscure program set up for those that are injured or killed to cover their damages even if there is no insurance.

Large national insurance companies wield immense financial power and political influence, making them formidable forces not only in the insurance industry but also in public policy. Their extensive lobbying efforts have shaped laws and regulations in ways that often benefit their bottom line, frequently at the expense of consumers. These corporations prioritize minimizing payouts to maximize profits, employing vast resources to delay or deny claims, even in cases involving vulnerable individuals like children injured by negligent or drunk drivers.

It’s not unreasonable to suspect that these same companies may have influenced the Kansas Highway Patrol’s policies that make it harder for victims and their families to access critical information. By making it harder for victims and their families to access critical information, these policies create obstacles to accountability and shield the insurers of negligent drivers from public scrutiny. This lack of transparency benefits insurance companies by delaying or reducing payouts, leaving innocent people—especially those suffering catastrophic injuries—without the timely support and justice they deserve. Such actions deepen the imbalance of power between these corporate giants and the individuals they are supposed to protect, eroding trust in both the legal and insurance systems.
