Step-by-Step Guide
What Should You Do After an Accident in Webb City?
- 1
Call 911 and Report the Accident
In Missouri, you are legally required to report accidents involving injury, death, or significant property damage. Call 911 from the scene in Webb City and request both police and medical assistance.
- 2
Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Go to a hospital or urgent care — even if you feel fine. Many injuries like whiplash, concussions, and internal bleeding don't show symptoms immediately. Nearby hospitals include Freeman Health System (nearby Joplin).
- 3
Document Everything at the Scene
Take photos and videos of all vehicles, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals, and skid marks. Get names, phone numbers, and insurance information from all parties and witnesses.
- 4
Do Not Speak to Insurance Adjusters Without an Attorney
Insurance companies will contact you quickly — often within 24 hours. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and to offer a lowball settlement before you understand your claim's true value.
- 5
Contact a Personal Injury Attorney Immediately
Missouri's statute of limitations is 5 years (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 516.120). However, critical evidence — surveillance footage, witness memories, vehicle data — degrades rapidly. The sooner you call Bond Legal at (866) 423-7724, the stronger your case.
- 6
Keep All Medical Records and Bills
Every doctor visit, prescription, therapy session, and medical bill becomes evidence of your damages. Keep a daily journal documenting your pain levels, limitations, and emotional impact.
Missouri Law
How Does Missouri Personal Injury Law Work?
Pure Comparative Fault
Source: Mo. Rev. Stat. § 537.765
Missouri follows pure comparative fault — your damages are reduced by your percentage of fault regardless of amount.
Statute of Limitations: 5 years
Source: Mo. Rev. Stat. § 516.120
In Missouri, you generally have 5 years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation. There are limited exceptions for minors, discovery of latent injuries, and government claims — consult an attorney immediately.
Damage Caps
Non-economic damages capped in medical malpractice only (adjusted annually, approximately $450,000–$800,000 per Mo. Rev. Stat. § 538.210). No general PI damage cap.
Key Missouri Laws Affecting Your Case
Pure Comparative Fault
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 537.765
Missouri follows pure comparative fault — you can recover damages even if you are 99% at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.
5-Year Statute of Limitations
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 516.120
Missouri has a generous 5-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims. Wrongful death claims must be filed within 3 years (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 537.100).
Mandatory Auto Insurance
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 303.025
Missouri requires minimum liability coverage of 25/50/25 ($25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident BI, $25,000 PD). UM/UIM coverage is required to be offered but not mandatory to carry.
No Pay, No Play Law
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 303.390
Missouri's 'no pay, no play' law limits uninsured drivers' ability to recover non-economic damages. If you were uninsured at the time of an accident, your pain and suffering recovery may be reduced or barred.
DWI Law
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 577.010
Missouri's DWI law sets the BAC limit at .08 for adults, .02 for those under 21. Implied consent applies — refusal results in 1-year license revocation. Missouri classifies DWI offenses by count, with enhanced penalties for repeat offenders.
Dram Shop Liability
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 537.053
Missouri's dram shop statute allows injured parties to sue licensed sellers who sell alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person who subsequently causes injury. Missouri courts have interpreted the statute to require proof that the seller's conduct was a proximate cause of the injury.
