Working Toward A Stronger Future

Dealing with medical expenses after an injury often makes attending college a great financial burden or impossibility. The same is true of families who have lost a parent, and are now struggling to afford education for their children. This is why our firm established the Be Strong scholarship at the Missouri State University. The Be Strong scholarship is awarded to students who have been the victim of catastrophic injury, or who have lost an immediate family member in a fatal accident, and wish to attend MSU. Our Missouri personal injury attorneys are honored to help make a difference in the lives of young adults who wish to further their education and their future.
