How Long Do You Have To File A Personal Injury Claim In Missouri?
You generally have five years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury claim in Missouri. While that may seem like a lot of time, the sooner you file, the better.
Key evidence may be harder to collect only months after the accident. The sooner you file your personal injury claim, the higher your chances are of recovering maximum damages. However, some personal injuries have a shorter statute of limitations, and you may need to talk to a lawyer to learn about your deadlines.
How Is Negligence Determined In A Personal Injury Claim?
Determining negligence in a personal injury claim depends on the kind of accident involved. However, the type of evidence that exists, such as police reports and video evidence can quickly prove where negligence lies.
Who Is Responsible For Paying Damages?
A successful personal injury claim can hold drivers, business owners, property owners, medical professionals, manufacturers and pet owners liable for injuries. Once it is clear who caused your injuries, they will be held responsible for paying your damages.
How Should You Negotiate With Insurance Companies?
If an insurance company calls you with a settlement offer, you should consider talking with a lawyer first. Our lawyers find that insurance companies often make low settlement offers. When we negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf, we aim for maximum compensation.
