A: A Kansas attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. There is no direct "quick fix" answer to your question of what you should do that would fit in a Q & A forum response. The short answer is that you should consider setting up a free initial consult with a Kansas attorney. You could be right about the insurance carrier stalling, or it's possible they can't reach their insured if she is being held in jail. Unfortunately, there is no instant fix in this type of setting. But an experienced attorney could take immediate steps to look into the possibility of rentals, speeding up property damage adjustment, etc. Good luck
