At Kelley Kronenberg, we believe the successful defense of a liability claim begins with an initial evaluation of the type of case and the injuries involved to ascertain the extent of investigation and workup needed on each file. Each case will be evaluated in order to develop an individual approach and budget for each file - smaller injury cases will involve less workup than cases involving more extensive injuries. Strategy is developed on a case by case basis, with all investigation and discovery tailored to the facts of each case. Each case is given a customized approach.
In addition, if applicable, the Liability Department will work with the Firm’s Medicare Set Aside (MSA) Department to handle all aspects of Medicare Secondary Payer requirements. The MSA Department is aware of all federal requirements and recent policy changes, and will provide strategy for managing liability cases in light of changes under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act and amendments, including ensuring compliance with Medicare mandatory reporting requirements and identifying problems and solutions for better claims handling and impediments to settlement.
A detailed list of Case Results and information for this Department is available from the Department Head upon request.
