Can I Get Money for Pain and Suffering After a Car Crash?
By Bradley A. Pistotnik, Wichita car accident attorney, Bull Attorneys, P.A.
Quick Answer:
Yes, if another driver is mostly at fault, you can claim money for pain, stress, and how your life changed.
What counts
Medical notes, therapy records, and family or co-worker statements can show how the crash changed your life.
Kansas fault rule (simple)
If you are less at fault than the other driver, you can recover. Your money can be reduced by your share of fault.
Tip for proof
Keep a short daily journal: pain level, sleep, work limits, and missed events.
