Will I have to file a lawsuit in order to get compensation for my St. Louis car accident claim?

It depends. Most car accident injury claims can be settled prior to filing a lawsuit as long as there are not complicated issues of law or fact in the case. Insurance companies only offer fair compensation when a lawyer is aggressive and isn’t nervous about filing a lawsuit. Our injury lawyers file lawsuits every day and conduct trials on a regular basis. A lawyer who is unwilling to file a lawsuit when the insurance company is being unfair is NOT doing you any justice. Question: What is the statute of limitations for a car accident in St. Louis Answer: The statute of limitation for a car accident injury claim in Missouri is five (5) years. For fatal car accidents that result in wrongful death claims, the applicable statute of limitations is three (3) years from the date of the crash. Failing to file a lawsuit in the appropriate jurisdiction within the time period allotted by law will result in a complete bar to recovery.
