Truck Accident Lawyer in Missouri – The Schultz Legal Group
In the spring of 2010, St. Louis injury lawyer Stephen Schultz formed the Missouri & Illinois law firm of Schultz & Myers. With offices located in Chesterfield, Schultz & Myers is solely dedicated to the representation of victims of serious personal injuries and the families who lose loved ones due to the negligent conduct of truckers on our roads and highways. It is critical to bring negligent truck drivers, negligent trucking companies, AND their insurance companies to justice. In our nation's civil justice system, this means obtaining large settlements and judgments against these entities. Our mission is that in bringing these companies to justice, we are effectuating change in the commercial trucking industry, resulting in safer roadways for our residents.
Looking for an attorney who knows what it is like to be in YOUR shoes? Mr. Schultz was injured in a serious automobile accident following graduation from college. Being injured and feeling helpless was one of the driving forces for his enrollment into Washington University School of Law in St. Louis and subsequent devotion to assisting the victims of serious truck accidents. His clients are given office, home and cellular phone contact information so that "no injury victim feels helpless or distant" throughout the handling of the case.
Our tractor-trailer accident lawyers will thoroughly review your case and determine what can be done to fight for maximum compensation. Be assured that all claims for compensation will be made, including future medical care. Truck accidents can cause deadly accidents and serious injuries. When facing recovery from such an accident, the last thing you need to worry about is the claims process and negotiating with insurance companies that are not genuinely concerned with your interests. In fact, without legal representation the insurance company may offer you a “settlement” that is ridiculously low, without consideration of the full extent of your damages. Don’t discuss settlement with any insurance company without first talking to a personal injury attorney from the Schultz Legal Group. What you say to insurance company personnel can be a barrier in making a claim in the future. Don’t take chances; get high-quality legal representation for your truck accident case.
