If you have suffered harm due to someone else’s negligence or misconduct, you may have a valid claim and should consult with an attorney promptly.
Missouri law typically allows for a two-year statute of limitations from the date of injury for filing personal injury claims.
It’s important to act promptly to ensure your rights are preserved and evidence is collected while it remains fresh.
Many personal injury cases settle through negotiation without proceeding to trial, saving time and resources for the client.
However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may proceed to court where we will advocate fully on your behalf.

Also, gather any evidence such as photos, witness contacts, and incident reports to support your claim.
The duration varies depending on the complexity of the case but typically ranges from several months to over a year.
We strive to resolve cases efficiently while ensuring thorough preparation and strong representation.
Missouri follows a comparative fault system, which means you may still recover damages even if you were partially responsible for the accident.
Your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but consulting an attorney can clarify your rights and options.
Keep thorough records of medical visits, accident details, and communications to support your claim.
Refrain from sharing details on social media or with insurance adjusters without legal advice.
Contact a knowledgeable attorney soon after injury to guide you through the complex legal process.
Be aware of statutes of limitations to ensure timely filing of your claim.
