We emphasize clear communication and personalized legal strategies tailored to each client’s circumstances. By understanding the nuances of Missouri’s premises liability laws, we strive to achieve results that help our clients move forward confidently.
We begin by discussing the details of your slip and fall incident, reviewing medical records, and assessing potential liability to determine the merits of your case.
Our team collects evidence such as photos, witness statements, and inspection reports to build a comprehensive understanding of the circumstances surrounding your accident.
We engage with insurance providers and responsible parties to negotiate a fair settlement that covers your damages and losses.
If settlements are not satisfactory, we prepare diligently for trial to ensure your case is presented effectively in court.
After a slip and fall incident, it is important to seek medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor, to document your condition.
Additionally, report the incident to the property owner or manager and gather evidence such as photos and witness contact information to support your claim.
Missouri follows a comparative fault system, meaning you may still recover damages even if you are partially responsible, as long as your fault is less than 50%.
An experienced attorney can help evaluate your case and advise you on the best course of action based on your degree of fault.
The statute of limitations for slip and fall claims in Missouri is generally five years from the date of the accident for personal injury claims.
Filing promptly is important to preserve evidence and protect your right to compensation.
You may be entitled to recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages related to the accident.
Each case is unique, so a thorough evaluation will help determine the full scope of potential compensation.
Our firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no upfront costs and we receive payment only if we successfully recover compensation for you.
This approach allows clients to pursue their claims without financial risk.
Many slip and fall cases are resolved through settlement negotiations, but if necessary, we are prepared to take your case to trial for the best possible outcome.
We will counsel you throughout the process and recommend the most suitable strategy based on your specific circumstances.
