FAQ

  • What should I do immediately after being injured in an accident in St. Louis?

    If you’ve been injured in an accident in St. Louis, prioritize your safety and check yourself and others for injuries. Call 911 to report the accident and request medical assistance, even if injuries seem minor, as some may not be immediately apparent.

    Follow any medical advice offered by medical professionals, whether on the scene or at a hospital. Follow all recommended treatments and keep detailed records of your medical care. If your personal injury claim needs to go to trial, records of your medical care can be used to determine your total damages and can also demonstrate that you took your injuries seriously. Most importantly, and this should go without saying, these treatments should help you recover and move on with your life.

    At the scene of the accident, if you are able, use your phone to capture photos and videos of the accident scene, including vehicle damage, road conditions, visible injuries, traffic signals, and anything else that may be relevant to your case. Exchange contact and insurance information with the other party involved. Collect names, phone numbers, and statements from witnesses who saw the accident.

    While at the scene, speaking to officials, or when engaging with others involved in the accident, be careful what you say. Avoid making statements that could imply fault, such as "I’m sorry" or "I didn’t see you." Let the police and insurance companies determine liability based on evidence.

    Next, file a police report. A police report serves as an official record of the incident, which can be critical evidence when filing your claim. Be truthful and stick to the facts when speaking to officers.

    Then, report the accident to your insurer. Be honest but avoid admitting fault or making statements that could be used against you later.

    Finally, speak to a personal injury lawyer at Morgan & Morgan. Contacting an experienced personal injury attorney early in the process can help protect your rights, gather evidence, and navigate the complexities of filing a claim.

  • How do I know if I have a case under Missouri law?

    If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence, you might be entitled to compensation. We want to ensure that everyone has access to information and the ability to get justice, so you can simply contact Morgan & Morgan for a free case evaluation to learn more about your legal options. Our team can review the details of your situation and advise you on the best course of action.

  • How long after an injury in St. Louis can I file my claim?

    The amount of time you have to file a personal injury claim, known as the statute of limitations, varies by state and the specifics of your case. However, some exceptions may apply, such as in cases involving minors, government entities, or when the injury wasn’t discovered right away.

    It's important to file your claim as soon as possible to preserve your legal rights. Failing to file within the statute of limitations could result in your case being dismissed, meaning you may lose the opportunity to recover compensation for your injuries.

    Since deadlines can vary by state and situation, it's best to consult with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible after the incident to understand the specific timeline for your case. An attorney can help ensure your claim is filed correctly and on time.

  • How much does it cost to hire a St. Louis personal injury attorney from Morgan & Morgan?

    Morgan & Morgan’s St. Louis attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that there are no upfront fees or expenses until your case comes to a successful conclusion. That’s right—the Fee Is Freeâ„¢, and you only pay if we win.

    Our fee is a percentage of the settlement or verdict amount, ensuring we are motivated to achieve the best possible outcome for you.

  • Do I have to pay for a consultation with a St. Louis personal injury lawyer?

    No. Consultations at Morgan & Morgan are completely free. We believe everyone deserves access to legal advice, regardless of their financial situation. 

    Hiring one of our lawyers is easy, and you can get started in minutes with a free case evaluation on our site or by phone.

  • What sort of compensation can I recover from a St. Louis personal injury case?

    Compensation can vary widely depending on the specifics of your case, but generally, it could include:

     

    Medical Expenses

    You could recover the costs of medical treatment related to your injury, including hospital bills, doctor visits, surgery, physical therapy, prescription medications, and any future medical care you may need.

     

    Lost Wages

    If your injury has caused you to miss work, you may be compensated for lost wages. This includes not only the income you have already lost but also any future earnings you may be unable to earn due to your injury.

     

    Pain and Suffering

    Compensation for pain and suffering addresses the physical pain and emotional distress caused by your injury. This could include compensation for chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and reduced quality of life.

     

    Property Damage

    If your personal property was damaged as a result of the incident, you might be entitled to compensation for repair or replacement costs. This often applies to cases involving car accidents, where vehicle damage is a significant factor.

     

    Loss of Consortium

    In some cases, your spouse or family members may be entitled to compensation for the loss of companionship, support, and services resulting from your injury.

     

    Punitive Damages

    In cases where the defendant's actions were particularly egregious or reckless, you might be awarded punitive damages. These are intended to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior in the future.

     

    Disability and Disfigurement

    If your injury has resulted in a long-term or permanent disability or disfigurement, you may be entitled to compensation for the impact on your ability to work and perform everyday activities, as well as the emotional toll of such changes.

     

    Other Related Expenses

    You may also recover other expenses related to your injury, such as transportation costs for medical appointments, home modifications needed to accommodate a disability, and costs for assistive devices like wheelchairs.

    Every case is unique, and the specific compensation you may recover will depend on the circumstances of your injury and the extent of your damages. At Morgan & Morgan, our experienced attorneys will thoroughly assess your case and fight to ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve.

  • Who will be on my St. Louis case team?

    When you hire Morgan & Morgan, you don’t just hire a lawyer, you hire the largest personal injury law firm in the country with an army of over 1,000 lawyers and offices in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.

    Your case will be handled by a dedicated team of professionals, including personal injury lawyers, paralegals, and support staff. You will be assigned a care team that includes a primary attorney who will oversee your case and ensure you receive personalized attention throughout the process.

  • When do I meet with my St. Louis lawyer?

    After your initial consultation, your care team will schedule regular meetings to discuss your case, provide updates, and prepare you for any upcoming proceedings. We are committed to maintaining open lines of communication and keeping you informed every step of the way.

  • Do you have attorneys in St. Louis who speak multiple languages?

    Yes, Morgan & Morgan has a diverse team of attorneys who speak multiple languages, including Spanish. We strive to ensure that language barriers do not prevent you from receiving the legal representation you deserve.

  • What happens after I submit my personal injury claim in St. Louis?

    After you submit your personal injury claim in St. Louis, the insurance company for the at-fault party will review it. The insurer will assign a claims adjuster to your case, who will investigate the details of the accident, review documentation, and evaluate the extent of your injuries. The adjuster may collect evidence such as police reports, medical records, witness statements, and any other relevant information to assess liability and damages.

    The insurance company will thoroughly review all submitted documentation, including medical records, accident reports, and any other evidence. They may contact witnesses, seek expert opinions, or even conduct site visits to better understand the incident.

    After gathering evidence, the insurance adjuster will evaluate your claim based on a liability assessment and a damage calculation. Based on their evaluation, the insurance company will typically extend a settlement offer. This offer may be lower than what you might expect or need. It’s essential to review this offer carefully, as it may not fully account for all your damages. If the initial offer is unsatisfactory, your Morgan & Morgan personal injury attorney can negotiate on your behalf to pursue a fair settlement that reflects the true value of your claim.

    Negotiations can involve back-and-forth communication between your attorney and the insurance adjuster. Your attorney may present a counteroffer based on your assessment of damages, leading to further discussions until a mutually acceptable agreement is reached. If negotiations do not lead to a satisfactory settlement, you may need to file a lawsuit.

  • Will my personal injury case in St. Louis go to trial or settle out of court?

    Many personal injury cases are resolved through settlements before reaching trial. Settling out of court can be a quicker, less stressful, and more cost-effective way to resolve a case depending on the facts of the case. 

    However, whether your case will settle or go to trial depends on several factors, including the strength of the evidence, the willingness of the other party to negotiate, and your own preferences. At Morgan & Morgan, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial to ensure we are ready to fight for the maximum compensation possible. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, our attorneys are fully prepared to take your case to court.

  • How long does a personal injury lawsuit in St. Louis take to resolve?

    The duration of a personal injury lawsuit varies depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of the injuries, and the willingness of the parties to reach a settlement. Some cases may be resolved in a matter of months, while others can take years, especially if they go to trial. 

    At Morgan & Morgan, our attorneys work diligently to move your case forward as efficiently as possible while ensuring no corners are cut. We will provide you with an estimated timeline based on the specifics of your case and keep you informed of any changes. To learn more, get a free case evaluation today.

    At Morgan & Morgan, we understand that staying informed about your case is important to you. In St. Louis, our attorneys are committed to keeping you updated regularly throughout the legal process. You will receive updates at key stages of your case, including when there are new developments, when we receive important information, or when decisions need to be made.
