While your case is pending against the insurance company of the person that caused your injury in your automobile accident, we will try to arrange to have your medical bills paid by your own insurance company. This could be from the medical payments provision of your own automobile insurance policy or your own health insurance policy, or if applicable, worker’s compensation insurance. Please be sure that all medical bills that relate to your injury are sent to our office, so that we may process your claim for them with the appropriate insurance company.
Our Law Firm takes personal injury and workers’ compensation cases on a contingency fee basis. This means that if there is no monetary recovery, you owe us nothing for our services. In the event of a recovery, costs and fees associated with bringing the lawsuit will be deducted from the total judgment or settlement.
The lawyers in our Firm are licensed to practice in Missouri. If, however, you live in a state where we are not licensed, we associate with competent local counsel and work closely with them on your case. Since we associate with local counsel, we are able to appear and practice in states where we are not licensed.
We have many people at any given time working on your case. There are lawyers and legal assistants with whom you will work directly. There are also investigators and word processors that will work on your case. Some of these people you will never see or have contact with. However, we all work as a team in bringing your case to a successful conclusion.
We work in various courts and each court in the United States differs in the amount of time it takes to bring a case to trial. Once we know what court we are in, we will have a much better position to estimate the time to trial.
