FAQs
Can a defendant plea bargain in a drug case?
Plea bargaining, which involves negotiating with the prosecutor to get the charges reduced and the punishment minimized, is allowed in drug-offense cases. For example, a person charged with three separate drug charges-possession, possession for sale, and transportation of drugs may be able to negotiate the charge down to simple possession in exchange for an agreement to plead guilty to that charge. The prosecutor agrees to plea bargains in appropriate cases because the government simply does not have adequate resources to try every case, so both sides benefit from the bargain.
Should I accept a check from the at-fault driver or his or her insurance company?
Accepting a check may be construed as a settlement that prohibits you from obtaining any additional amounts from the at-fault driver or his or her insurance company. Therefore, you should not accept a check or sign a release from the at-fault driver or his or her insurance company until after you have conferred with an attorney. Typically, an attorney will encourage you to wait to accept a check until you have completed your medical treatment and have been released by a doctor, so you know you have received an amount that adequately covers your medical bills and other damages. An insurance adjuster may push you to settle the claim for the lowest possible amount and may discourage you from contacting an attorney. If so, you should ignore his or her advice, and consult an attorney immediately before accepting any payment, signing any release, or otherwise settling your claim to ensure that you are receiving fair compensation and not jeopardizing your right to a full and fair recovery.
What is my auto accident case worth?
The value of a case depends on a variety of factors and cannot be determined without analyzing information regarding the injury, medical bills, loss of income, and permanency of the injury. There is no rule of thumb, and each set of facts results in a different amount of damages.
Will I have to go to court for my injury case?
Not necessarily. Many motor vehicle accident cases are concluded without even filing a lawsuit. Most lawsuits are settled without an actual trial. A settlement avoids the costs and delay of a trial and may result in a greater net recovery. However, if the case cannot be settled on satisfactory terms, it may be necessary to try it in court.
DO ALL OFFICERS WEAR BODY CAMERAS WHILE ON DUTY?
No. To the surprise of many, there is no requirement in Missouri that police officers carry body cameras or even possess dash cameras in their vehicles. Other states, such as New Mexico, do impose that duty on their police officers. In Missouri, however, whether or not your encounter with law enforcement is recorded is up to the head of that specific police department, his or her policies, and his or her use of budget resources for body cameras.
