Frequently Asked Questions

What types of workplace injuries qualify for compensation?

Workplace injuries can include physical trauma, repetitive strain injuries, occupational illnesses, or accidents occurring on the job. Missouri law covers a broad range of injury types for worker’s compensation eligibility.

If your injury is directly related to your employment, you likely qualify to file a claim. Consulting with an attorney ensures your claim is accurately presented.

Missouri generally requires injured workers to report injuries within 30 days and to file a worker’s compensation claim within two years from the date of injury or diagnosis.

Timely action is critical to protect your right to benefits. An attorney can help you meet all deadlines and prevent claim denials due to timing issues.

Missouri law allows for compensation even if you bear some responsibility for the injury, as long as it was an accident arising out of and in the course of employment.

The total disability and benefits you receive may depend on the degree of fault, which your attorney can help clarify in your specific case.

Seek medical attention immediately to document your injury and begin treatment. Report the incident to your employer as soon as possible within the required timeframe.

Early reporting helps preserve your rights and strengthens your claim. Consulting an attorney early can also ensure proper handling of your case.

You are not required to have an attorney, but legal guidance often results in better outcomes by navigating complex paperwork and negotiations effectively.

An attorney provides valuable support understanding your rights and ensures you receive the benefits you’re entitled to under Missouri law.

We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.

This approach allows clients to access high-quality legal services without upfront costs or financial risk.
