A proven track record in personal injury cases.

When selecting a personal injury lawyer to help with your case, good results in and out of the courtroom are an important measure of success of any trial attorney and should be a critical factor in determining who to hire. With more than 20 years of winning fair compensation for clients like you, attorney Kurt Larson understands that every case is unique and has the experience to help you achieve the best possible outcome for you and your family.

Below are a few examples of the results Kurt and his staff have obtained for their clients in regards to personal injury settlements:

$9,073,369.30 Judgment

Our 90-year-old client broke her ankle when another driver ran a stop sign causing a serious wreck. Our client sustained a serious Pilon-type injury to her right ankle including fractures to her tibia, fibula, and distortion of the normal ankle mortise. Due to the severity of this orthopedic injury, we hired a life care planner to calculate the costs of future medical care over our clients lifetime. We took the other driver to Court and obtained an $8,173,369.30 Judgment for our injured client, and a $900,000.00 Judgment for our client’s husband due to the interference with their marriage and his quality of life.

Confidential Walmart Settlement

This case involved a client who tripped over a blown over price display outside a Walmart store in Nixa, Christian County, Missouri. Our client fractured her hip requiring surgery, and as a result of the surgery she developed a nerve injury to her right upper leg known as Meralgia Paresthetica. She ultimately required the implantation of a spinal cord stimulator due to her Meralgia Paresthetica. Walmart originally denied all liability, and claimed our client was not entitled to discovery of its internal documents because her “damages are relatively small.” However, we filed multiple Motions for Sanctions resulting in the appointment of a discovery special master forcing Walmart to produce its internal written policies and procedures, and a “claims run” showing other similar falls. We were able to prove that Walmart employees violated its internal safety rules requiring employees to secure signs in windy conditions, and that this was not the first time a Walmart customer has tripped over a blown over sign. After nearly two years of litigation, Walmart admitted liability, dismissed its comparative fault claim, and settled with our client for a confidential amount at mediation.

$6 millionWrongful Death Jury Verdict

This case involved the wrongful death of a retired 62 year-old husband and father of two daughters who was killed by the driver of a tractor-trailer, who failed to pay attention to traffic stopping in front of him. This jury based its verdict on non-economic damages only, such as the loss of the guidance, love, attention, comfort and consortium that he brought to his family. This case remains the largest verdict ever in Taney County history and was one of the largest verdicts in the state of Missouri that year.

$3.5 millionPersonal Injury Settlement

This case involved a young client attacked by an exotic animal being kept in captivity by irresponsible handlers. The settlement proceeds were placed in a special needs trust in an effort to protect the funds over our client’s lifetime, and to help implement a life care plan providing our client with the best possible quality of life despite his significant physical challenges.

$1.1 MillionWrongful Death Settlement

This case involved the wrongful death of the father of our client, a 3 year-old little girl. Our client’s father was killed when the vehicle he was driving was crushed by a tractor-trailer that slid off the highway at an overpass and fell onto the highway below. After careful planning her settlement was structured so that she would receive payments over the course of her life that would achieve this balance.

$750,000Settlement

Our client was injured while riding a shuttle bus at a local resort. Six years after the collision, which threw her to the ground of the bus, she underwent neck surgery. Because of the gap in time, the insurance company initially offered only $15,000. However, after we filed suit and proved the surgery was medically related to the accident, and also discovered that the shuttle bus brakes were not operating correctly and the resort knew it, the insurance company settled.

$412,000Jury Verdict

Our client was a 41 year-old wife and mother of two, who sustained an injury to her neck. Our client developed fibromyalgia after the collision and suffered daily pain. The insurance company had offered her $3,100 before trial and their insured policy limits were only $100,000. After trial, the insurance company paid the entire judgment, including interest.
