Most personal injury firms in Missouri settle fast. We don’t.
Settlement mills take on hundreds of cases, close them quickly, and move to the next one. That approach works well for the firm. It rarely works well for the client. At Mid-America Injury Law, every case is prepared as if it will go to trial. Insurance companies know the difference between an attorney who will accept whatever they offer and one who will take them to court. That difference shows up in what our clients are paid.
If someone else's negligence caused your injury, you may be owed compensation.
We handle every major personal injury case type in Missouri.
Rear-ends, T-bones, drunk drivers — all road accident claims in Missouri. 18-wheelers, delivery vans, and commercial fleet incidents under FMCSA rules. Premises liability on commercial or residential property in Missouri. Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, and hospital negligence under Missouri law. Rider injuries from negligent drivers or road defects across the St Louis metro. Representing Missouri families after a preventable, fatal accident. We're not a settlement mill. We take cases to trial when that's what it takes. We don't just threaten to go to court — we actually do. Insurance companies know it. We know the St Louis County courts, the judges, and the insurance adjusters in this region. Zero upfront cost. You pay nothing unless we win your case — ever. Your case won't be handed off to a paralegal. You work directly with your attorney throughout.Personal injury cases we win

What every Missouri injury victim needs to understand
You have five years, but the clock matters now
Missouri gives you five years to file a personal injury lawsuit under RSMo 516.120. That sounds generous. It is not. Dashcam footage gets overwritten in days. Witnesses move. Physical evidence disappears. Insurance companies spend that time building their defence. The earlier you have an attorney, the more of that evidence we can preserve.
Being partly at fault does not end your claim
Missouri follows pure comparative fault. If you were 20 percent at fault and your damages total $100,000, you still recover $80,000. Insurance adjusters know this law and will try to inflate your percentage of fault to reduce what they pay. Having an attorney stops that from happening.
The adjuster calling you is not on your side
The person who calls you after your accident works for the insurance company. Their goal is to settle your claim quickly for as little as possible. Once you accept any settlement, you cannot come back and ask for more even if your injuries turn out to be far more serious. Do not give a recorded statement and do not sign anything before speaking to an attorney.
Contingency fee means you risk nothing
We do not charge anything upfront. Our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you. If we do not win your case, you owe us nothing at all. There is no financial risk to hiring us, and there is significant financial risk to handling an injury claim on your own.

Answers to the questions we hear most often from injury victims across Missouri. Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis -- our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you, and only if we win. If we do not recover anything, you owe us nothing at all. Five years for most personal injury claims under RSMo 516.120. Medical malpractice is two years under RSMo 516.105. Wrongful death is three years under RSMo 537.100. Claims against government entities may have notice requirements as short as 90 days. Yes. Missouri follows pure comparative fault. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault but not eliminated. Even if you were 40 percent at fault and your damages are $100,000, you recover $60,000. Straightforward cases often settle within six to twelve months. Cases involving disputed liability or severe injuries can take 18 to 36 months. Cases that go to trial take longer. We give every client a realistic timeline after reviewing their specific facts. Free, confidential consultation — no obligation, no pressure.Case results
