We’ll remind you that even though insurers spend millions of dollars on TV to convince you they are your good neighbors, or that they want you to place your family in their good hands, or that they are just a bunch of funny cavemen or friendly lizards who want to take care of you, the fact is that insurance adjusters have one goal in life: to pay you as little as possible for your claim. That’s why the first words out of an adjuster’s mouth are often, “Now, there’s no need for you to contact a lawyer…”
But, of course, there is. Personal injury law—even cases that appear run-of-the-mill—are actually extremely complicated and their outcome can impact you and your family’s standard of living and quality of life for decades to come.
Take something as seemingly simple as an injury caused by a dog bite. The insurance adjuster for the dog owner will try to convince you to settle your claim for the cost of the medical treatment you received immediately after the attack. Unfortunately, many dog bite victims require multiple plastic surgeries and years of physical therapy to fully recover from their injuries. Treatment the victim will pay for if they made the mistake of settling the case too soon and for far too little.
The experienced personal injury lawyers at Betras, Kopp, and Markota will make sure you don’t make mistakes that could cost you thousands of dollars and years of heartache. We’ll carefully investigate and evaluate your case, give you our best advice, and win the financial settlement you need and deserve at the negotiating table or in court.

I needed help regarding an accident at work, I was going through a very difficult time due to the injury, and Casey was there for me. Casey was there for me both personally and professionally. Throughout my case, Casey guided me towards the best financial settlement possible all while understanding my individual needs.
