A valid claim generally requires proof of negligence or fault by another party that caused your injuries or damages in the accident.
Consulting with our attorneys can provide clarity on your case’s strength and the best path forward.
Compensation may include coverage for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other related losses.
Each case is unique, and we strive to maximize the compensation you receive based on the specifics of your accident.
Our firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
This approach allows clients to access quality legal representation without upfront costs.
Missouri follows a modified comparative fault rule, allowing you to recover damages if you were not more than 50% at fault for the accident.
Our attorneys can help assess fault percentages and pursue the best possible outcome for your case.
Always gather as much information and evidence at the scene to support your claim.
Immediate treatment protects your health and provides important medical records for your case.
Do not accept early offers from insurance companies before consulting an attorney to ensure fair compensation.
