Key Missouri Motorcycle Statutes
Navigating a motorcycle injury claim in Kirksville requires a deep understanding of specific state laws that differ from standard passenger vehicle regulations. These statutes can directly impact the outcome of your settlement or trial.
- Helmet Requirements: Missouri Revised Statutes 302.020. Insurance adjusters may attempt to use the absence of a helmet to argue for reduced damages, regardless of fault.
- Statute of Limitations: You generally have five years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in Missouri, under Missouri Revised Statutes section 516.120. However, immediate action is necessary to preserve evidence like witness statements and dashcam footage.
Compensation for Motorcycle Crash Injuries
Because motorcycles lack the structural protection of a car, injuries can be life-altering, such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, or severe road rash.
We pursue full “damages”, the legal term for compensation, to cover your long-term needs, including:
- Economic Damages: Coverage for emergency room bills, future surgeries, physical therapy, and lost wages or diminished earning capacity.
- Non-Economic Damages: Compensation for intangible losses like physical pain, emotional distress, and permanent scarring or disfigurement.
