Were You Hurt in a Rear-End Collision?
Rear-end collisions are among the most common types of car accidents, occurring when one vehicle strikes the back of the vehicle in front of it. These crashes can cause serious harm, including injuries to the neck, spine, and head. If you’ve been hurt in a rear-end accident, Bretz Injury Law is ready to help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
Matthew Bretz has spent over 30 years helping accident victims seek justice and accountability across Kansas and Missouri. When your health and your future are on the line, Bretz Injury Law brings the experience and resources your case demands.
Understanding Liability in Rear-End Car Accidents
Bretz Injury Law represents clients across Kansas and Missouri, and the laws governing how car accidents are handled can differ significantly from state to state. Kansas is a no-fault car insurance state, which means drivers are required to carry personal injury protection (PIP) coverage. After an accident, you first file a claim with your own insurer regardless of who caused the crash. However, when damages exceed a certain threshold, you may have the right to pursue a claim directly against the at-fault driver.
If an insurance company tries to undervalue or deny your claim, that’s when having an attorney at Bretz Injury Law in your corner becomes critical. Matthew Bretz has deep knowledge of car accident claims and works to hold insurance companies accountable for treating your claim fairly. And if litigation becomes necessary, he is fully prepared to take your case to court.

Whiplash: One of the Most Common Rear-End Collision Injuries
Whiplash is a serious condition and one of the most frequent injuries seen in rear-end car accidents. It typically refers to soft tissue damage in the neck and lower skull caused by the sudden snapping motion of the head during impact. Whiplash can occur even at low speeds, and many people don’t realize they’ve been injured right away.
Not all symptoms show up immediately, which can lead some people to put off seeing a doctor. If you’ve been in a rear-end accident, getting medical attention as soon as possible is one of the most important steps you can take.
Symptoms of whiplash can include:
- Headaches or migraines
- Fatigue and tiredness
- Stiffness and pain in the neck and shoulders
- Difficulty concentrating
- Numbness in the arms
