The court may also consider the financial losses that you endure as a result of your accident. For example, if your injuries cause you to miss work, you may be compensated for your inability to earn a living.

Know Your Statutes of Limitations for Kansas and Missouri
It is important to keep in mind that Kansas and Missouri both have statutes of limitations for injury claims. If you miss the deadline to file, your case cannot continue, and you may be prohibited from bringing your claim. The statute of limitations for personal injury cases is as follows:
Kansas
- Negligence action – 2 years
- Wrongful death – 2 years
Missouri
- Negligence action – 5 years
- Wrongful death – 3 years
Missouri gives victims more time to bring a personal injury claim.
Consider Seeking Help
Regardless of where your claim arises, it is essential to get the ball rolling as soon as possible to avoid the statute of limitations.
