On Missouri roads, negligent driving is described as “careless and imprudent”. Such unsafe practices can take the form of driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, failure to follow traffic laws, driving while texting, and a general failure to drive safely and with the highest degree of care.
If you suspect that negligent driving caused the death of your loved one, whether your loved one was on foot or in a vehicle, reach out to Jimerson Law Firm, P.C. We’ll listen carefully to better understand the details of the accident and help you compile and preserve the evidence needed to prove wrongful death in Missouri.
If your loved one has passed away due to another’s drunk driving, you may have the right to sue for wrongful death. A wrongful death claim helps compensate you and your family for the financial loss due to your loved one’s death. This financial loss may include loss of income, final medical expenses, and funeral-related expenses for your family member.
If you are a surviving spouse, child, or parent, you can legally file a wrongful death claim. Grandchildren can file if no children of the deceased are surviving. Should there be no surviving parents, children, or grandchildren, surviving siblings may bring a suit. Finally, if there are no surviving siblings, surviving nieces and nephews may sue.
If you or your vehicle were struck by another motorist, they are legally obligated to remain on the scene and provide aid, exchange information, and notify the police. When this fails to happen and the injurious driver flees, you have rights as a victim of a hit-and-run.
Should the other driver be identified, you may seek damages for lost wages, property damage, and medical bills due to injuries. Your auto insurance’s uninsured driver insurance can be another source of compensation. If struck by a driver, seek medical attention immediately and reach out to a knowledgeable personal injury attorney to better understand your rights and options.
Were you injured in an accident with a drunk driver? After seeking medical help, get in touch with a personal injury lawyer. You may be entitled to damages in light of lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering endured because of the accident.
The caring and diligent legal staff at Jimerson Law Firm, P.C. can help you compile and preserve evidence, negotiate for appropriate damages, and represent your injury and its impact on you faithfully and meaningfully.
If you have been arrested in Missouri, it is crucial that you cooperate with law enforcement and other officials throughout the process of your arrest and that you do not resist. By law, you may have to show proof of your identity. Assuming they have a search warrant or probable cause, law officers have the right to search you or your property.
However, cooperating does not mean that you should explain the situation from your perspective or answer their queries about the events leading to your arrest. Your answers to their questions could be used as evidence against you and put you in a worse position.
It is always better to wait for a professional criminal defense lawyer to represent you. Keep in mind that you should inform law enforcement that you have chosen to remain silent until you receive legal counsel.
After an arrest, you may be taken to jail for holding, and you may be required to complete fingerprinting and be searched. You will be allowed two phone calls, and as soon as possible, you should reach out to a criminal defense lawyer.
