Catastrophic injuries involve serious harm that profoundly impacts one’s life and wellbeing. This type of injury often leads to disabilities, extended recovery, and ongoing care needs that can be financially overwhelming.

Begin with a thorough review of your injury details and circumstances to identify potential legal strategies and next steps.
Collect medical records, witness accounts, and other relevant evidence to build a comprehensive understanding of your claim.
Engage with opposing parties to pursue a fair settlement that reflects your damages and long-term needs.
If necessary, prepare thoroughly for trial to advocate effectively on your behalf and seek justice through the court system.
Catastrophic injuries typically refer to severe injuries that result in permanent disability, disfigurement, or significant impairment. These injuries often require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.
Examples include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, and amputations. Each case demands careful evaluation to understand its unique impact.
In Missouri, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims, including catastrophic injuries, is generally five years from the date of the injury.
Filing within this timeframe is crucial to preserve your legal rights and pursue the compensation you deserve. Early consultation helps ensure no deadlines are missed.
Compensation can cover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, rehabilitation costs, and future care needs related to the injury.
Each claim is unique, and damages are calculated based on the injury’s severity and its impact on your quality of life.
Our firm typically works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay legal fees only if we obtain compensation for you.
This approach makes legal services accessible without financial risk during the case evaluation stage.
The timeline depends on case complexity, evidence gathering, negotiations, and whether the case proceeds to trial.
While some cases settle in months, others may take longer. We strive to resolve claims as efficiently as possible without compromising your interests.
Missouri follows the comparative fault rule, which allows you to recover damages even if you were partially at fault, although compensation may be reduced accordingly.
