  • Takes the depositions of treating physicians and medical experts to prove the client’s disability is related to a work injury.
  • Ensures all work-related medical bills are paid, including money for possible future treatment, so that her clients will be fully taken care of in the future if the disability is permanent, and;
  • Negotiates with the insurance company for a fair settlement of the claim, ensuring her clients are fully compensated for medical bills, lost wages, and lost earning capacity.
  • Kelly also handles personal injury cases deriving from accidents involving cars, motorcycles, trucks, and medical malpractice. She understands the difficulties facing her clients when medical treatments are needed, and bills are piling up. Kelly fights hard on their behalf to reach the best possible outcome.
