FAQ
Common Questions
The initial consultation is always free. We work on a contingency fee, which means attorney fees come out of a recovery rather than being paid upfront. Ask us how fees and case costs work in your case.
In Missouri, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is five years from the date of the injury. However, there are exceptions that can shorten this window, so it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after your accident.
Seek medical attention first, even if you feel fine. Document the scene with photos if possible. Get the other party's information and contact details for any witnesses. Do not give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company before speaking with an attorney.
Every case is different. Some cases settle in a few months, while others may take a year or longer, especially if a lawsuit is filed. Ed and Phil will give you an honest timeline based on the specifics of your situation during your free consultation.
Most personal injury cases settle out of court. However, Ed and Phil have tried over 300 jury trials, and insurance companies know they are prepared to take a case to trial.
Missouri follows a pure comparative fault rule. This means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. Your recovery amount is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20% at fault, you can still recover 80% of your damages.
