Kansas City, MO Personal Injury Lawyer Welcome to the Henning Law Firm Click here for our homepage. HOW TO HIRE A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER Experience, Past Results and Peer Recognition Hiring a personal injury lawyer is an important decision. Hopefully, this will be the first and last time that you will ever have to be involved with the legal system due to someone else's careless acts which caused you to suffer injuries. You want your personal injury lawyer to have experience in not only settling lawsuits but trying lawsuits that involve personal injuries or death in a car or automobile, motorcycle, slip and fall or semi-truck accident. While accidents and wrecks may happen every day, you want a lawyer who is used to trying this type of lawsuit in front of a jury. At Henning Law Firm, we have extensive trial experience and both of the trial partners have been awarded the prestigious awards. Denise Henning, founder and owner, is the recipient of the coveted Lon O. Hocker Award from the Missouri Bar Foundation which recognizes outstanding trial skills within the State of Missouri . Don't trust the phone book listing for personal injury lawyers! When selecting your personal injury lawyer to handle your accident, be sure to do more than just look at the phone book. Look to see what results this lawyer has gotten in the past. While previous results are no guarantee of a similar result in your case, you will want to know if that lawyer has tried million dollar lawsuits and won. If you are interviewing a lawyer, ask that lawyer about their trial experience, their jury verdicts, their awards, and their ability to handle your case. We encourage you to review the "Verdicts and Settlements" page of our website which describes many of the cases we handle. You will see that we have experience with a variety of personal injuries, semi-truck accidents, and automobile accidents. Even Internet listings are sometimes paid referral services. It is important to know that law firms pay to be listed in an online referral service, so simply being listed in a referral service does not mean the law firm is qualified to handle your case. You want a personal injury lawyer who has handled accidents like yours and who has obtained sizeable jury verdicts and settlements. A lawyer listed with a referral service does not automatically guarantee you will get that type of personal injury lawyer. Is the personal injury lawyer recognized by their peers? Finally, when searching for a personal injury lawyer to handle your car wreck or other accident, you will want to figure out if that potential lawyer has been recognized by their peers as an outstanding trial lawyer. The most prestigious trial award in the State of Missouri is the Lon O. Hocker Award presented by the Missouri Bar Foundation. This award recognizes outstanding trial skills. Denise Henning has received this prestigious award. You will also want to know if your personal injury lawyer is a leader in legal organizations. Denise Henning has been the president of the Association of Women Lawyers and has been active in the Missouri Bar and the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association. Hiring your personal injury lawyer to handle your accident or wreck is an extremely important decision. Do not take it lightly. Do the research and ask the hard questions before signing a contract. Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingent fee basis which means the lawyer only gets paid if there is a settlement or verdict. At Henning Law Firm, we advance the expenses to get your case to settlement or verdict so you do not have to come up with any money in order to pursue recovery for your personal injuries.
