Auto Accident

The lawyers at Nash and Franciskato have over 80 years combined experience handling automobile accident and semi- trucking cases involving serious personal injuries or death. We are located in Kansas City but represent folks throughout the country.

Nash and Franciskato represents individuals who have been involved in automobile accidents and semi-trucking accidents involving serious personal injuries or death.

Today, we spend a great deal of time in our cars and on the road. We eat in our cars, talk on the phone, text, and check email; we are a society of distracted drivers. Add to the mix other negligent driving behaviors, such as aggressive, drowsy or drunk driving, speeding and just plain recklessness; it’s no wonder that auto accidents continue to be a leading cause of personal injuries.

Unfortunately, poor driving practices and negligent behavior endanger everyone on our Kansas City roads. In 2017, speeding alone killed 9,717 people across the country. Automobile semi-truck accidents have serious consequences. When automobile accidents involve a fatality or life-threatening injury, you need strong legal guidance to protect your rights.

Nash & Franciskato has a successful track record of obtaining multi-million dollar settlements in cases involving serious personal injuries and wrongful deaths resulting from automobile and semi-truck crashes.
