If you want a good smooth case and not just be another Number then I would highly recommend these guys. Michael Van Brunt
"Steve and his office did an amazing job with my settlement in regards to a work related injury. I was always able to get ahold of Steve and he answered any question I asked him. No one else I would recommend other than Steve. He even took less of a percentage to help me out. He is unequivocally, the best lawyer this side of the Mississippi. Melissa Decker
"I had an issue with my employer not wanting to cover workman’s comp for an on the job injury. I called this law firm to find out if they could help. They answered all my questions and helped me through the process. If I ever had a question I would call or email and they would respond quickly. The whole settlement seemed to resolve quicker than what I expected. I would definitely use them again in the future if needed!

Harvest season fills the two-lane roads and highways around the Northland with more grain trucks and semis than usual. More trucks on the road means more high-speed, multi-vehicle wrecks. Once a commercial truck is in the mix, the case works differently than a regular crash claim.

Under federal and Missouri law, any truck weighing 10,001 pounds or more counts as a commercial motor vehicle. Not just the big rigs. A loaded grain truck running that route to the elevator can clear that weight easily, and the same safety rules apply.

That's where the case shifts. A lot of these trucks are driven by leased owner-operators, not direct employees. Federal law still makes the interstate carrier that leased the truck fully responsible for how it was driven. They can't say "that guy's not our employee" and walk away from what happened.

If a grain hauler or semi caused your crash this fall, call us: 816-400-4878.

A spinal cord injury typically takes 12 to 24 months to settle into whatever it's going to be. Doctors call that point maximum medical improvement, and it's generally the first time anyone can put honest numbers on lifetime care and the work you may never get back to.

The offer tends to arrive well before that. Months earlier, usually. What our team often sees is an adjuster pushing to close a file within days of the crash, before the imaging has been fully read and before anyone has said the word surgery out loud. The number can sound like a lot when the bills are only a week old.

In Missouri, signing a settlement release ends the conversation. A worse prognosis, a second operation, a career that never restarts: none of that reopens a settled case.

Call us: 816-400-4878. Nothing about your claim is locked in until you sign.

Can a college be held responsible when a student is assaulted? ⚖️🎓

The answer isn’t always straightforward. When something serious happens on or around a college campus, there are 5 key questions that can help determine whether the school may have legal responsibility.

Eric breaks down what matters—from what the college knew beforehand to whether reasonable steps could have prevented the harm.

The offer lands before your surgeon has cleared you to carry a grocery bag up the stairs.

That timing isn't random. In cases like this, adjusters often want a signature before your file even reflects how serious the injury turned out to be.

Proving what you actually lost depends on your paycheck. If you're on a W-2, pay stubs and a wage verification letter typically get you there. If you're self-employed, insurers often want tax returns, profit-and-loss statements, and sometimes an expert to explain what your business would have earned.

None of that gets fixed after you sign. In Missouri, a release is final, even if the diagnosis changes later. Call us at 816-400-4878 while your file's still being built out.

We'd rather build your file too thick than let an insurer use a thin one against you.

Late August through September, grain trucks and farm haulers start filling Northwest Missouri's two-lane highways again. On routes like 71, 36, and 29 that feed into Kansas City, harvest traffic often means slower rigs mixed in with commuters rushing home.

If a hauler hits you, photograph the truck's DOT number, company name, cargo, road conditions, and any skid marks, then grab the other driver's plate and witness contacts before people leave. Get checked out. Don't give a recorded statement to the trucking company's insurer.

Carriers must keep ELD records of duty status and supporting documents for six months. Dash cam footage isn't held to that standard. Onboard cameras typically overwrite in days to a week, and cloud copies can clear out in a month or two—right where the footage that shows fault usually lives.

If a grain truck or hauler hit you on one of these rural routes this fall, call us: 816-400-4878.

Think you’re fully covered? Your insurance policy might say otherwise.

The fine print matters—especially after a serious accident. Eric breaks down why you should know what’s actually in your policy before you ever need to make a claim, including coverage limits, exclusions, and protections that could make a major difference.

The first call we make after you hire us isn't to the insurance company. It's to the carrier, telling them what they can't touch.

That call turns into a preservation letter naming the hours-of-service logs, the ELD data, the maintenance records, and the camera footage. Federal rules already require carriers to hold onto driver logs and ELD data for six months, and maintenance records for a year while the truck's still in service. Dash cam footage doesn't get that same protection. Onboard cameras typically overwrite within days, and cloud copies often clear out within a month or two.

Missouri courts can tell a jury to assume that missing evidence would have hurt the carrier's case. That's why we typically send that letter within 24 to 72 hours of taking your call, right while continuous footage still exists to save.

Before that footage is gone, call us: 816-400-4878.
