What to Expect

A typical client engagement at Edelman and Thompson begins with a consultation at the Lenexa office, during which an attorney listens to the details of the accident or injury and reviews any existing documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of personal injury cases does Edelman and Thompson handle?
The firm handles personal injury cases involving car accidents, slip and fall incidents, and other situations where someone else's negligence caused harm. If your injury has left you unable to work, that lost income is part of the damages the firm will seek to recover.
How does workers compensation work in Kansas?
In Kansas, workers compensation provides benefits to employees injured on the job, covering medical treatment and a portion of lost wages. Disputes with employers or insurers over the extent of your injury or the benefits owed may require legal representation to resolve.
Can Edelman and Thompson help if my workers comp claim was denied?
Yes. A denied workers compensation claim can be appealed, and having an attorney handle the appeal significantly improves the odds of a favorable outcome. The firm can review the denial and advise you on next steps.
What if my injury was caused by a coworker or contractor?
If a third party, such as a contractor or equipment manufacturer, contributed to your workplace injury, you may have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit in addition to your workers compensation claim. Edelman and Thompson can evaluate whether a third party claim applies.
Is there a deadline to file a workers compensation or personal injury claim in Kansas?
Yes. Kansas has statutes of limitations that set deadlines for filing both workers compensation claims and personal injury lawsuits. Waiting too long can forfeit your right to compensation, so it is important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after an injury.
Where is the Lenexa office located?
The office is at 8700 Monrovia St, Suite 310, Lenexa, Kansas. You can call (913) 871-4300 to schedule a time to come in and discuss your case.
