    Ranges vary by claim type. Confirm the date that applies to you with a participating attorney.

Local context

Legal landscape in Missouri

Missouri follows pure comparative fault. Your recovery can be trimmed by your share of blame, but you are not shut out of compensation automatically. Frequent matters include I-70 crashes and premises injuries in St. Louis and Kansas City.

Personal injury claims in Missouri usually carry a five-year filing window, longer than what many states allow, though certain claims expire sooner. A Missouri lawyer can pin down the precise deadline for your circumstances.

Matters that frequently surface in Missouri case reviews

  • 01

    An extended window, but not for everything

    A number of Missouri injury suits are talked about in terms of roughly five years, which runs longer than in many other states. Claims against medical providers, government entities, and others may carry far shorter windows. Treating the long window as a safe rule is a mistake.

  • 02

    Two metros joined by one interstate

    St. Louis and Kansas City generate most of the caseload, linked by I-70. A collision close to the Kansas or Illinois line may raise the question of which forum applies.

  • 03

    Uninsured-motorist issues along I-70

    AutoInjuryAccident.com does not file anything in Missouri circuit court and does not provide legal advice. A participating lawyer can examine a metro or I-70 crash and determine whether an uninsured-motorist claim fits.
