If you were injured due to someone else's negligence in Brentwood, you likely have a valid claim. Common scenarios include car accidents on Manchester Road or Brentwood Boulevard, slip and falls at Brentwood Square, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, dog bites, and wrongful death.

To determine if you have a case, call (314) 651-8631 for a case evaluation. We'll review the facts and explain your options.

Our office is at 1034 S. Brentwood Blvd., Suite 1900A—right on the boulevard that shares your city's name, just steps from the Brentwood city limits. We're near the Saint Louis Galleria and I-64/Highway 40, making us easily accessible from anywhere in Brentwood.

Unlike firms that claim to "serve" Brentwood from downtown St. Louis, we're actually in your neighborhood.

Missouri follows a comparative fault rule. You can still recover compensation as long as you were less than 51% responsible for the accident. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.

For example, if you're awarded $100,000 but found 20% at fault, you'd receive $80,000. Insurance companies often try to inflate your fault percentage—we fight back against these tactics.

Every case is unique. Compensation depends on several factors:

• Medical expenses — Past and future treatment costs
• Lost wages — Income lost and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering — Physical pain and emotional distress
• Permanent injuries — Disabilities or long-term impairments

Wolff Trial Lawyers has recovered hundreds of millions for clients. Call (314) 651-8631 for a case evaluation.

Most personal injury cases settle within 6 to 18 months. Complex cases with severe injuries or disputed liability may take longer. Key factors include:

• Completing medical treatment
• Investigation and evidence gathering
• Insurance negotiations
• Whether litigation becomes necessary

We push for the fastest resolution that protects your interests while ensuring you don't settle too early.

Missouri's statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is 5 years from the date of injury. However, exceptions apply:

• Medical malpractice: 2 years from discovery
• Wrongful death: 3 years from date of death
• Claims against government: Much shorter deadlines (often 90 days notice required)

Don't wait—evidence disappears and witnesses' memories fade. Contact us immediately to protect your rights.

Wolff Trial Lawyers works on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing unless we win your case. We only collect a fee when you receive compensation.

This arrangement allows injured Brentwood residents to access experienced legal representation regardless of their financial situation. Call (314) 651-8631 to discuss your case.

Insurance adjusters work for the insurance company, not you. Their goal is to minimize payouts. Avoid these mistakes:

• Don't give a recorded statement without an attorney
• Don't say "I'm fine" — injuries may appear later
• Don't admit any fault — even saying "I'm sorry" can hurt you
• Don't accept a quick settlement — initial offers are usually far too low
• Don't sign anything without legal review

Simply say: "I'm represented by Wolff Trial Lawyers. Please contact my attorney at (314) 651-8631."

No. Insurance companies and defense attorneys actively monitor social media to find evidence against you. Even innocent posts can be twisted to hurt your case.

• Don't post photos of activities (even old photos)
• Don't discuss your accident, injuries, or case
• Don't accept new friend requests from strangers
• Set all accounts to private

When in doubt, stay off social media until your case is resolved.

A denial is not the end. Insurance companies deny valid claims hoping you'll give up. Common denial reasons include disputed liability, policy exclusions, or "insufficient evidence"—many of which can be overcome.

When you have an attorney, insurance companies take your claim more seriously. We can file an appeal, negotiate aggressively, or take your case to court if necessary. Call (314) 651-8631 if your claim was denied.

Take these steps to protect your health and legal rights:

1. Seek medical attention — Call 911 or go to SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital or Barnes-Jewish Hospital
2. Report the accident — Contact Brentwood Police at (314) 962-4800
3. Document everything — Photos of the scene, injuries, and property damage; witness contact info
4. Don't admit fault — Even to the other driver
5. Contact an attorney before talking to insurance — Call (314) 651-8631

The sooner you contact us, the better we can protect your rights and preserve evidence.
