These medical professionals receive years of education and training before they are allowed to work with patients, and there is simply no excuse for them to commit careless errors that result in patient harm.
If you or someone you know has suffered a life-changing illness or injury due to inadequate or negligent care at the emergency room, you may be able to take legal action to pursue fair compensation for your losses.

How long do I have to file a personal injury case in Missouri?Every state has a time limit for how long you have to file a personal injury claim called the statute of limitations. In Missouri, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is five years from the date the injury occurred or could have been reasonably discovered. If you fail to file your personal injury lawsuit before the statute of limitations expires then the defendant will most certainly file a motion to dismiss the case.
