Is There a Time Limit for Filing a Personal Injury Claim in Missouri?

In Missouri, claimants generally have five years from the date of their accident to file their case with the court, but the time frame varies depending on the type of case in question. For cases that involve a wrongful death suit, the claimant has three years from the time of the event to file their claim. From the moment you contact us, we’ll help you keep track of all court deadlines and filings.

How Long Does It Take to Achieve a Settlement or Win Compensation?

In some instances, clients have been able to settle their claim within weeks. At other times, cases can drag on beyond a year. Although there’s no way to definitively say how long a case will go unresolved, we can say that most of these claims are resolved without litigation, so that means they tend to be resolved more quickly. Many defendant’s and their insurance companies want to avoid court if possible. They know that we are going to fight for our client’s rights and they have access to the same evidence that we do. In many cases, they understand precisely where the fault lies and are willing to offer a settlement.

If we the defendant is unwilling to offer a settlement or admit wrong-doing, we can pursue the matter in court. We’ve argued before judges and juries on behalf of our clients. We are aggressive litigators and will pursue every angle in order to achieve our goals.

Why Is It Important to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney Early?

There is a plethora of reasons why it’s helpful to hire a personal injury attorney early. For instance, if you were involved in a car accident, your vehicle could possible be towed away before it’s been photographed. These photographs could be important for your claim. If you slipped and fell in a convenience store, the incident might have been caught on the store’s security video. These tapes may not be preserved for a lengthy period of time, making it crucial to procure them as evidence. Witnesses can be difficult to track down as time goes by and they may prove forgetful after a month or even years go by.

When we have the opportunity to investigate a claim in its earliest stages, we have the best chance for recovering the most helpful evidence. Moreover, we will pour over medical records and police reports, which may contain errors. If we discover these errors early on, we can have them repaired before they can damage your claim.

Did you know that it’s common practice for insurance companies to call you in the earliest days of your recover and ask you to provide a recorded statement? They might even ask you to sign paperwork before you even know the full extent of your medical condition. Insurance have one thing in mind: their own best interests. They will do everything they can to negate your claim or reduce the amount they could have to pay out. When clients invite us to represent them, we can handle these insurers right from the start. We know how to protect your interests. And—they know we know how to protect your interests.
