Frequently Asked Questions
How soon should I contact a lawyer after an injury?
Sooner is better, because evidence fades and deadlines apply. An early consultation lets an attorney preserve records and document the scene. It also helps you avoid early insurer tactics that can undercut a claim.
What does a contingency fee mean?
On a contingency fee, you pay no attorney fee up front. The firm is paid a percentage only if it recovers money for you. Most injury attorneys in the St. Louis County area work this way.
Where are injury cases heard in St. Louis County?
Injury lawsuits for Clayton and nearby cities are handled at the St. Louis County Circuit Court in Clayton. Because the courthouse sits in the county seat, local attorneys know its procedures. That familiarity helps a case move efficiently.
