Car Accidents in Jackson County
Millions of car accident victims endure serious injuries every year across the country as several thousand more lose their lives. Missouri saw 143,826 vehicle collisions in 2008 alone, generating a total of 1,326 victim fatalities.
Missouri allows liability to be assigned in a couple of ways. It can be determined by things like eyewitness accounts, discovery via opposing council, and the testimony of expert witnesses. Although the state grants a five-year statute of limitations in which to file your claim, it is important to speak with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
The longer you wait, the harder it will be to prove your version of events and obtain full and fair financial compensation.
