At Bull Attorneys, we are experienced personal injury lawyers who understand how the force of a motor vehicle accident causes damage to the knee, hip and upper leg at the moment of a car accident.

The National Library of Medicine reported that over 6.6 million knee injury patients went to Emergency Rooms between 1999 and 2008. High energy accidents like car accidents and sports related injuries are the most common cause of knee injuries.
Injuries below the knee are common in a frontal car accident or truck crash and they cost a substantial amount in terms of medical treatment because they cause long term functional impairment and disability. Many knee injuries also cause damage to the hip, thigh and femur due to the significant force of a car accident upon impact with another vehicle. The higher the speed, the worse the injuries are.
Frontal motor vehicle crashes will transmit significant force to the knee which travels to the thigh and hip and can cause severe injuries to all of your lower extremity body parts that sometimes are not repairable.
Our Wichita personal injury lawyers have medical-legal training which helps our law firm team to find the best orthopedic surgeons in Wichita and across western Kansas and Garden City. These medical physicians are specialists and usually are based in Wichita, Kansas. It is more difficult to find a great knee, hip, or leg doctor in Western Kansas.
In trucking accidents that have an over-the-center line car accident or while making left turns hitting the front of cars and pickups can be life threatening and sometimes result in wrongful death. These head-on crashes will easily shatter not only your knee, but travel through the entire leg.

We help you get financial compensation for medical bills, wage loss, future medical treatment, pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life and other financial losses from motor vehicle accidents causing injury to the knee, thigh, or hip. We file the insurance claims, deal with the insurance adjusters, investigate your case to prove the other driver was at fault and if a low-ball offer is made by the insurance company, we file a lawsuit.
In addition to knee injury, the force of a high impact car crash with another large truck or vehicle can jointly injure the pelvis, femur, fibula, and tibia as well as your hip causing damage to many different body parts of the lower extremity. This is because the neck of the femur that is in your hip is the weakest part of the femur and can break easily in a motor vehicle accident.
The most common knee injuries from car, trucking and motorcycle accidents are:
Even with safety improvements like airbags, the National Institute of Health found that there is a high rate of severe injuries when a person has a traumatic hip dislocation following a motor vehicle crash. All car accident victims that have a traumatic hip dislocation need a trauma surgery evaluation immediately following a car or truck collision with another motor vehicle.
Most hip dislocations require a closed reduction of the hip by an orthopedic surgeon. When both hips are injured in a motor vehicle accident it is called a bilateral hip dislocation. These injuries are life threatening and cause disability to the injury victim for a long period of time. Most never fully recover.
The most common hip injury from a motor vehicle accident is an acetabular fracture and injuries to the abdomen and pelvic region which makes up 53.92% of all hip fractures according to the National Institute of Health.
The knee-thigh-hip complex is a highly connected group of body parts that is subject to catastrophic injury in high impact trucking accidents and car accidents with large vehicles.
Accidents involving trucks, semis, or business fleet vehicles can result in devastating knee, hip, and thigh injuries. Given the size and weight of these vehicles and the force of the impact you are more likely to have a more severe injury to your knee, thigh, or hip. These large trucks, semis and delivery vehicles usually carry much higher insurance coverage with many having multimillion dollar levels of insurance.
The Wichita knee, hip and leg accident personal injury attorneys are experienced in understanding Federal regulations that apply to DOT licensed motor vehicles and trucks. Our Wichita personal injury attorneys understand the application of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) as it applies to your car or motor vehicle accident resulting in a knee injury or a hip or leg and thigh injury.

Yes, if your knee injury was caused by the negligent or reckless actions of a person or company, you can sue them for monetary damages. These can cover medical bills, wage loss, pain and suffering, disability, and other non-economic losses.
