The Dollar, Burns, Becker & Hershewe Difference

Why do Missourians repeatedly choose us as their personal injury law firm of choice? Because

  • We never seek anything less than maximum compensation in personal injury cases.  Our clients rely on us to litigate cases successfully to help pay for their injuries, bills, and pain and suffering. So when we win $50 million in just one jury verdict, we know we are supporting the victim and their loved ones for hopefully decades to come.
  • We charge clients only when we win their case. Using a contingency fee payment structure is another way we support our clients seeking justice in their personal injury cases. Contingency fees depend upon an attorney winning their client’s case and require no upfront payments to the firm to start work on a victim’s case.
  • We understand the tactics insurance companies use to undermine a victim’s case. An insurance company profits from collecting premiums and not paying out on claims. This is why it’s sadly all too common for insurers to claim the case was mostly the victim’s fault in an attempt not to pay or to underpay a claim. The attorneys at Dollar, Burns, Becker & Hershewe understand these strategies and can successfully navigate them to produce favorable results for you.
