Bretz Injury Law

What Bretz Injury Law does

Bretz Injury Law is a Kansas-based personal injury law firm founded in 1991 by Matthew L. Bretz and incorporated as a dedicated injury practice in 1997. The firm exclusively represents injured individuals and families across car, motorcycle, truck, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents, wrongful death, product liability, premises liability, nursing home negligence, and other catastrophic injury matters. The firm advertises $300M+ recovered for Kansas families over 30+ years with a 98%+ win rate, supported by a small in-house team of roughly 10 staff (one lead attorney, five paralegals, a registered nurse, a bookkeeper, a director of marketing and intake, a marketing specialist, and a receptionist) across 11 physical offices statewide.\n\nThe firm operates exclusively on a contingency fee basis under a written 'No Fee Guarantee' that has been in place for over 30 years; clients pay no attorney fees unless the firm wins, and case expenses are advanced and reimbursed from settlement proceeds. Technology is limited to a standard law firm practice management and client communication platform for case management and intake handling. The go-to-market is a direct attorney-led sales motion (24/7 phone intake with local numbers per office, free in-person or remote consultations, walk-in availability, direct cell phone access to the attorney) layered with community-driven content marketing (a published book in its 4th edition, video library, blog, social media, email newsletters, and event sponsorships such as MADD, the Bretz Foundation, and motorcycle safety events).\n\nThe business is privately held and founder-owned, with no disclosed institutional investment, parent company, or outside funding. A 501(c)(3) charitable foundation (established 2015) is funded by a portion of case fees and supports community and safety initiatives. The firm is geographically concentrated in Kansas (Hutchinson, Hays, Liberal, Topeka, Wichita, Dodge City, Kansas City, Salina, Garden City, Olathe) with bilingual English/Spanish service capability and no disclosed international or multi-state expansion.
