How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Missouri?

In Missouri, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including motorcycle accidents, is generally 5 years from the date of the crash. For wrongful death claims, the window is shorter: 3 years from the date of the person’s passing. Waiting too long to take legal action could mean losing your right to seek compensation. Starting early allows your lawyer to gather time-sensitive evidence and build a stronger case.
