Bretz & Young Injury Lawyers

I was in a serious car accident and hired the lawyers at Bretz & Young. They promptly addressed my concerns and questions and resolved the case very quickly. They had all of my outstanding medical expenses paid and the case settled in less than a year and a half. After all of my medical bills and litigation costs were paid I received more than $50,000. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone that needs legal representation.

I was impressed by the customer service from the very beginning through the end. They were very thorough and got me way more than I imagined I could. They see things most others don't, and they definitely see what insurance companies don't want us to know. I'll only recommend Matt and Melinda from now on.

The best attorneys and staff that truly care about each case and the clients. Every person is invested in the case from start to finish!

Matt Bretz and his team handled our personal injury case in spectacular fashion culminating in a fair and just settlement well before going to trial. Their successful track record of years of ethical practices and knowledgeable, effective representation served us well. The lawyer you choose does make a difference.nnMy wife suffered a debilitating injury in a fall due to unsafe conditions while dining in a Kansas tourist town. We tried to negotiate a fair settlement with the proprietor's insurance company ourselves but they offered us only a laughable, token amount to sign off on all claims since their “investigation” concluded that their client was not at fault.nnI had purchased a couple books on the subject of seeking a premises liability settlement without hiring a lawyer, which greatly aided our case. Learning from the many actual case histories detailed Matt’s book, I was able to compose a compelling and eloquent Demand Letter. Still, the insurance company knew they had the upper hand especially since we were out-of-state and out-gunned. So they hoped that we would simply give up in frustration fighting an uphill battle.nnOne of the books that I purchased from Amazon titled “And Justice for All: Win Your Injury Case” was co-authored by Matthew Bretz and Melinda Young of Hutchinson, Kansas. Besides the book’s excellent content, the law firm of Bretz and Young was a perfect fit geographically since we now needed a lawyer that was licensed to practice in Kansas yet not in the immediate vicinity of the same town. The stars were aligned which led me to call Matt’s office and shortly afterward he pulled off the road to call me for details. He enthusiastically convinced me that he wanted to take this case (for public safety concerns as well) and was confident in a favorable outcome. He followed up by having photos taken of the deteriorating premise conditions the following weekend and he took charge from day one.nnMatt is a very cordial and compassionate gentlemen but when it came to his negotiating skills in mediation, his tenacity and experience shone through. Mediation is an increasingly common (and often mandated) formal procedure before assigning a court date that often results in early settlement. We quickly learned to appreciate having Matt on our side. The opposing lawyer team tried a couple tricks but Matt saw right through them and put them on the defense. He then cleverly devised a simple yet effective formula of assigning a calculated value of pain and suffering that a jury could easily assign a tangible figure. Just the mention of presenting this to a jury in closing arguments instantly broke the stalemate in mediation negotiations, leading to a quick and rewarding resolution without the time-consuming expense and uncertainty of a jury trial.nnRegardless of whether or not you might try going it alone, you would do well to purchase a couple books such as Matt’s to educate yourself for one of the most important financial events of your life. Before you say or do something that might jeopardize your case, take the time to research and learn how the legal system works. Most likely if your case rises to a high dollar figure, you will benefit greatly by choosing the right lawyer to achieve a fair and just settlement. We found our perfect match in Bretz and Young.
