Welcome back to the Injury Law Pod! March is Brain Injury Awareness Month, and it's an opportunity for us to recognize the impact that brain injuries have on many people's lives. Brain injuries can have various effects, including physical, cognitive, and emotional problems. Concussions are one of the most common types of brain injuries, and while they can range from mild to severe, any injury to the brain is significant.
Demonstrating the impact of a brain injury in legal proceedings often involves gathering evidence from witnesses who knew the injured person before and after the injury. Additionally, neuropsychological assessments can help assess cognitive function and guide treatment plans for brain injury survivors.
Remember, you only get one brain, so let's do everything we can to keep it safe and healthy.

In today's episode, the focus is on an alternative dispute resolution option, specifically mediation. Mediation, as an alternative dispute resolution method, gained prominence in the late '80s and '90s as a way to settle personal injury claims without going through a full-blown jury trial. Eric discusses how mediations work in both the work comp setting and the third-party setting, such as car accidents, slips and falls and dog bites.
Eric details the mediation process, from submitting case information to the mediator to the actual settlement discussions. Also shedding light on the work comp mediation process, where mediations are required before proceeding to a final hearing. Throughout the episode, Eric provides insights into the advantages of mediation, the importance of controlling the settlement discussion, and the role of mediators in narrowing down issues for resolution.

This dual situation results in two potential claims for the injured person, and it's crucial to understand how to navigate these claims effectively. They have both a workers' compensation claim and a claim against the at-fault party.

Many drivers may not realize the importance of having sufficient coverage until it's too late. We'll share real-life experiences and insights to emphasize the significance of adequate insurance.
We all have uninsured motorist coverage, but here's the catch – underinsured motorist coverage is not required in Missouri, although it is in Kansas.
