Cases Our Co-Counsels Handle in Missouri
Our trusted network of co-counsels across Missouri has extensive experience representing clients injured in a wide range of serious accidents. Here are some of the most common types of cases they pursue:
Car Accidents
Our co-counsels routinely handle cases involving rear-end collisions, distracted driving, drunk driving, and uninsured motorists. These car accident cases often involve negotiating with insurance companies, proving fault, and fighting for full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Truck Accidents
Due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles, truck accidents often cause catastrophic injuries. Our co-counsels work on complex cases involving 18-wheelers, delivery trucks, and freight carriers, frequently dealing with multiple liable parties such as trucking companies, maintenance providers, or parts manufacturers. They understand federal regulations and use that knowledge to build strong cases.
Personal Injury Deserves Personal Attention!
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable on the road; even minor collisions can result in serious injuries. Our co-counsels advocate for riders injured due to careless drivers, unsafe road conditions, or defective equipment. They fight against bias toward motorcyclists and work to secure full compensation for clients’ physical, emotional, and financial recovery from bike wrecks.

Frequently Asked Questions
In Missouri, the statute of limitations for most personal injury lawsuits, including car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, is five years from the date of the accident. This means you must file a lawsuit within five years or risk losing your right to pursue compensation. However, certain exceptions may apply in cases involving wrongful death, minors, or government entities, so it’s essential to consult an attorney as soon as possible to preserve your rights.
Yes. Missouri follows a pure comparative fault system. This means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. However, your percentage of fault will reduce your recoverable compensation. For example, if you are found 20% responsible for the accident, your compensation would be reduced by 20%. An experienced personal injury lawyer can help ensure fault is assessed fairly and advocate for the maximum recovery possible.
After an accident, your top priority should be your health and safety. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you don’t think your injuries are serious. Next, report the accident to the police and obtain a copy of the accident report. If possible, document the scene by taking photos and collecting witness information. Avoid discussing fault or giving recorded statements to insurance adjusters without legal guidance. Finally, contact a personal injury lawyer to protect your rights and begin building your claim.
Yes. Our co-counsels take cases with no upfront fees and don’t take payment unless and until they win. You can get the help you deserve with no upfront out-of-pocket expenses.
