The attorneys of Bretz Law Offices have represented injured people throughout the State of Kansas, across the country, and even internationally. We have handled injury and death claims in Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, Missouri, Idaho, California, Florida, Texas, Nevada, the Phillipines, and Mexico. We litigate claims in both State and Federal Courts, and handle every aspect of injury claims -- from the day of the injury, through the medical treatment process, through settlement negotiations, and through trial and appeal if necessary.

Our case and trial results have been reported on CNN, and by the national, state, and local media.
