Krebs Law Firm

A Closer Look at Who Krebs Helps

Every client has a different story. Some were hit in a car crash. Others worked hard for years but can no longer keep a job because of health issues. Some are grieving the loss of a loved one.

Krebs Law Firm steps in for:

• People hurt in accidents that weren’t their fault

• Workers denied workers’ compensation

• Families facing wrongful death claims

• People with disabilities struggling to get Social Security benefits

The common thread? These are regular folks who need someone to fight for them when they

feel powerless.

Personal Injury Cases

A large part of Krebs’ work is personal injury law. If you’re hurt because someone else was careless, that falls under personal injury.

Car Accidents

Car accidents are one of the most frequent cases. Even minor crashes can lead to back injuries, concussions, or months of physical therapy. Insurance companies often try to settle quickly and cheaply. Krebs lawyers push back, making sure victims don’t settle for less than they deserve.

Truck Accidents

Truck crashes are often more complex. A truck driver might be at fault, but sometimes the company pushed them to drive too long, or the truck itself wasn’t maintained properly. Krebs lawyers dig into records, driver logs, and even black box data to uncover the truth.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists face higher risks on the road. Too often, drivers don’t look before changing lanes. When accidents happen, the injuries are usually severe. Krebs Law Firm fights against bias that unfairly blames riders.

Workers’ Compensation

If you’re injured at work, workers’ comp should cover your medical bills and part of your income. But too many workers face denied claims or delayed benefits.

Krebs Law Firm helps by:

• Filing claims correctly the first time

• Appealing denials

• Challenging employers who don’t follow the law

• Ensuring workers receive proper treatment

This matters most in jobs with higher risk, like construction, trucking, or factory work, where serious injuries can put people out of work permanently.

Disability Claims

Applying for Social Security Disability can feel like running into a brick wall. Many people get denied the first time, even with strong medical evidence.

Krebs Law Firm supports clients by:

• Collecting detailed medical records

• Preparing them for hearings

• Speaking directly to judges on their behalf

• Arguing why their condition prevents full-time work

Winning disability benefits can mean the difference between financial hardship and being able to cover basic living costs.

Wrongful Death Cases

When a life is lost due to negligence, the family left behind faces both emotional pain and financial stress. Wrongful death cases cover things like car accidents, unsafe workplaces, or medical mistakes.

Krebs lawyers help families recover costs such as:

• Funeral and burial expenses

• Lost household income

• Loss of companionship and guidance

While money can’t replace a loved one, it can help ease the burden during such a painful time.

The Krebs Approach

Every law firm has a style. At Krebs, the focus is personal attention. They don’t treat clients like file numbers. Instead, they listen, explain things in plain words, and check in regularly.

This approach builds trust. Clients know their lawyer is fighting for them, not just pushing paperwork.

The Importance of Evidence

Winning a case always comes back to evidence. Krebs Law Firm spends a lot of time gathering proof. Depending on the case, that may include:

• Police or accident reports

• Photos from the scene

• Medical records

• Expert witnesses like doctors or accident reconstruction specialists

• Employment records showing lost wages

Strong evidence is what forces insurance companies to pay fair settlements.

Settlement Negotiations

Most injury cases settle before trial. That means both sides agree on an amount without going to court. Settlements save time and stress, but they also need to be fair.

Krebs lawyers negotiate tough. They won’t let clients accept a lowball offer. If the insurance company refuses to pay what’s fair, the firm is ready to go to trial.

Going to Trial

Trials are harder and take more time, but they can result in bigger awards for clients. At trial, Krebs lawyers present the story of what happened, show evidence, and call witnesses. Judges and juries then decide the outcome.

Some firms avoid trial at all costs, but Krebs Law Firm prepares every case as if it will end up in court. This pressure often makes insurance companies more willing to settle.

Fighting Insurance Companies

Insurance companies are big businesses. Their job is to make profits, which means paying out as little as possible. Common tactics they use include:

• Offering quick settlements before victims know the full cost of injuries

• Delaying claims until people give up

• Blaming the victim

• Asking for endless paperwork

Krebs lawyers recognize these tactics and counter them. They know how to force insurers to treat clients fairly.

Civil Rights Connections

Some cases have civil rights angles. For example, if someone is hurt while in jail or denied benefits because of bias, lawyers may bring civil rights claims. These cases don’t just help individuals—they shine a light on unfair systems and push for broader change.

Long-Term Injuries

Many clients suffer injuries that never fully heal. Brain injuries, spinal damage, and severe

burns may last a lifetime. Krebs Law Firm doesn’t just look at today’s bills. They also consider:

• Future medical treatments

• Ongoing therapy

• Home modifications like ramps or lifts

• Loss of future income

This ensures clients don’t run out of money years down the road.

Common Mistakes Without a Lawyer

Trying to handle a claim alone often leads to mistakes. Common ones include:

• Accepting too little money

• Missing filing deadlines

• Not keeping detailed medical records

• Saying things to insurance adjusters that hurt the case

Krebs lawyers protect clients from these pitfalls.

How Clients Pay

Krebs Law Firm, like many personal injury firms, works on contingency fees. That means clients don’t pay upfront. The lawyer only gets paid if the case is won.

This makes legal help possible for everyone, not just those with money in the bank.

Real-Life Story Example

Imagine a truck driver injured while unloading cargo. His employer’s insurance claims it wasn’t a workplace accident. Alone, he might accept their denial and struggle to pay bills.

With Krebs Law Firm, his case is investigated, medical experts testify, and the court recognizes it as a workplace injury. He wins benefits covering medical care and lost wages.

This is just one example of how strong legal support changes outcomes.

Each case makes a difference beyond the person directly involved.
