Common Personal Injury Questions

Below are some of the most common questions that we receive from people seeking information about their injury case. If you need additional information, please contact our office and we would be happy to discuss your case with you.

When should I get a personal injury lawyer?

You should consider hiring a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident. Acting quickly is crucial because evidence can be lost and witnesses’ memories may fade over time. An experienced attorney can guide you through the legal process, help preserve important evidence, and handle communication with insurance companies on your behalf. The right lawyer will have a deep understanding of the law and will work diligently to ensure you receive the compensation you need for medical bills, lost wages, and other costs related to your injury. Contact a personal injury lawyer immediately after an accident for the best chance at a favorable outcome.

How long does an accident case take to settle?

Generally speaking, an accident case can settle at any time before you obtain a verdict at trial for your case. Thus, it depends on the unique facts and circumstances surrounding your case, as these will greatly impact how long it may take. In some cases where the evidence strongly shows the other driver’s fault and establishes your damages the defense will likely wish to settle soon to avoid risking a substantial verdict and save time. However, if the evidence in your case is more disputed and fault is not clearly established for your injuries, the other side will be less likely to settle early.

Are personal injury settlements taxable in Missouri?

The majority of damages for injury settlements are tax free in Missouri. Both the federal and state governments do not count personal injury settlements as income for tax purposes. However, there are certain types of damages which may be taxable. Your medical bills, lost wages and other direct harms are generally tax exempt. However, punitive damages are taxable, because they are not directly related to the harm which you suffered. Additionally, damages for emotional distress are also generally taxable, as these are non-monetary damages. However, direct monetary damage done to you by your injury are always tax exempt, so in most cases you will not face a tax penalty for your settlement.
