The Fight for Fair Compensation

You deserve to be compensated, but it is never automatic. The profit-driven insurance companies will downplay your injuries or deny your claims. Lee’s Summit attorney Tamara Putnam is diligent and aggressive in pursuit of a good recovery that covers your losses and ongoing needs.

At Carter & Putnam, LLC, we represent victims of motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, slip-and-falls, and other personal injury cases. Let us deal with the insurers and other hassles while you focus on getting healthy and well.
