Aggressive Representation of Mississippi Motor Vehicle Accident Injury Victims

If you are injured in a motor vehicle accident, you will usually be dealing with an insurance company when you seek compensation for your injuries, property damage and other forms of loss.  If the other driver’s insurance company contacts you following a motor vehicle accident, generally you should avoid speaking with the adjuster, furnishing a recorded statement or signing any documents.  Although the other driver’s insurance adjuster may seem friendly and amicable, he is paid to help the insurance carrier deny or minimize your claim.

Mississippi personal injury attorney William S. Kellum III understands the tactics used by insurance companies to avoid paying the actual value of a motor vehicle accident injury claim.  Whether an insurance company attempts to shift blame to the injured vehicle occupant, claims an injury is pre-existing or disputes the existence or severity of an injury, Mr. Kellum has the experience to gather the necessary evidence, experts and diagnostic records to effectively rebut such defenses.  Mr. Kellum will aggressively pursue a wide range of damages that might include:

  • Medical and hospital bills
  • Rehabilitation costs
  • Lost income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Impaired enjoyment of life experience
  • Loss of support, companionship and/or guidance of a spouse/child
  • Property damage (i.e. vehicle repair or replacement)
  • Burial/funeral costs (wrongful death cases)
  • Punitive damages (cases of particularly egregious conduct)
