This legal professional has shown exceptional competence and dedication in their field. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking legal representation that is committed to unwavering advocacy and support throughout the entirety of their case.
I would describe this lawyer as highly educated, sharp, and top of his game. Explains the car accident process and treatment options well. The lawyer said if they don’t pay you, we will have the jury take it from the insurance company. Great lawyer. Dynamic person.
Very good car accident lawyer. Gets the job done.
This lawyer is as good as you will find in st. Louis. Call this lawyer if you are in an auto accident. 100% recommended
Interviewed all the TV car accident lawyers and decided to call this law firm that had great reviews. So happy I did. What a difference!
Response from the owner: TV car accident lawyers are just mass production. This is not a good fit for litigated cases. Paralegals instead of lawyers. Monthly quotas for settlements. Car accident victims end up in a cattle call with the lawyers on TV.
Love my car accident lawyer. This law firm is a step above.
Response from the owner: Our lawyers train and track the best approaches on cases. Whether litigation in cases or the practicalities of certain treatment, the growth of our lawyers over time is paramount. Always staying ahead of and setting practice trends. Thank you.
This auto accident law firm is incredible!! Very accomplished lawyers!
Response from the owner: Being labeled “an incredible lawyer” is quite the compliment. We are only incredible if this client is. Thanks.
Serious family member have a car accident injury? Look no further. This litigator is for real. Always two steps ahead of the other lawyer.
Response from the owner: This is a sad reality for car accident lawyers. The #1 passenger in an auto accident is a relative. Helping a family make it through this and putting the family back together is one of the most rewarding things I do as an automobile accident attorney.
This lawyer handles really big accident cases in St Louis. He is a lawyer, accountant and has his masters in tax so he gets the injury cases for individuals that can never go back to work or individuals own a business and cannot run it due to injury. He specializes in valuations of massive loss. Thank goodness a firm like this exists.
Response from the owner: Thank you. When accident are severe and you lose the ability to work or to continue a business, having an accounting and tax background is key. Valuing large losses are second nature for us.
You are a great lawyer! Thank you.
Response from the owner: That is a great compliment. Thanks.
Asked a trauma surgeon who operates on car accident victims who are the best injury lawyers that have taken his deposition. He said “by far” it was Mr Hoffmann. Interviewed several attorneys and this was a correct assessment. In a league of his own!
Response from the owner: Our attorney have deposed nearly all the trauma surgeons at every Level 1 Trauma Center in Saint Louis. These doctors save lives after a car accident. Whether controlling bleeding or reestablishing blood flow or bone structures, they are life savers.
Few lawyers in St. Louis can handle the biggest injury cases! This is one of them!
Response from the owner: Our law firm has made great efforts in terms of training to handle life changing injury cases. Whether in depth knowledge of the medical, loss of income and earning capacity, or lifetime medical care plans, our clients feel confident and know their case is in good hands. Thank you for the compliment.
Cannot say enough about this lawyer. Call if in an accident. This attorney handles the biggest car accidents in St Louis.
Response from the owner: Thanks Ash! Our biggest source of cases is our clients. Our second biggest referral source is defense lawyers telling their relatives to call us. Few lawyers can handle the largest cases. Our law firm welcomes and has trained for this. We don’t do mass production settlement like the lawyers on TV. Our clients can never go back to work. Their cases need massive focus and effort and often long fought litigation.
So glad I called attorney Hoffmann. This time I got it right! So glad I hired the Hoffmann Law Firm - professional, reliable and available.
Response from the owner: Thanks Taylor. Our lawyers answer the phone day, night, weekends and even during lunch. Being professional means training to beat the best defense lawyers. Client rely on us to get results and we do.
Great lawyer. Cares about his clients, knows his stuff and goes the extra mile. I recommend this lawyer for car wreck injury claim. Every other lawyer on TV would not even help with my property claim. This attorney did.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the kind words. Every case starts with a great client. You are correct the car accident lawyers on TV are mass production settlement mills. When injury clients fire them, we get their files and the cases are not worked up at all. Appreciate your confidence in us!
Major car accident injury in St Louis area for a family member. Four different lawyers we know said the same thing - call Chris Hoffmann. On another level.
Response from the owner: This is such a great compliment. Most of our cases come from prior client or lawyers that also do car accidents cases but the particular case is too large or too difficult. Being a lawyer and an accountant, we specialize in cases with total lost of income, earning capacity and/or often the inability to continue a family business. Evaluations such as these are second nature for our lawyers. Thanks.
Best in St Louis for auto accident cases. Nobody else is even close.
Response from the owner: So kind of you to leave this review. Whether our lawyers are going after big insurance or their lawyers, skill and experience are essential and win the day for our auto accident clients. Thanks!
This attorney is very smart, very experienced, returns phone calls and knows the answers when asked. One call and I knew this was a great law firm for auto accidents.
Response from the owner: Our law firm appreciates this. This is a comment we get from so many people who call…”none of the lawyers we called told me all the things that you did.” Whether we take a car accident case or not, helping people is a good thing.
5 Star Lawyer for sure! Best you will find in Saint Louis.
Response from the owner: Thanks for the 5 Star Rating. Reviews like this are great. Injury victims quickly figure out the TV advertisers are not good. We work hard at being the best we can be and it reflects in our representation of car accident victims.
Watch this lawyer in action. Was way better than all the others. Get this lawyer for an automobile accident for sure.
Response from the owner: Thanks for the recommendation. Besides doing cases, our attorneys train for this. Hard work, case knowledge and technique is key to success in car accident litigation.
Very pleased with The Hoffmann Law Firm. Lawyers are attentive, friendly and go the distance to force the settlement you want. The TV lawyers recommend low offers. This law firm gets the maximum.
Response from the owner: We get calls from car accident victims that had to fire the TV lawyers that they hired. They give the same two reasons: 1) they never spoke to a lawyer at the Big TV law firms, only a paralegal, and 2) the paralegal recommended they accept a low offer. At our law firm, you only talk to the lawyer and if an offer is low we tell you to sue. Thanks!
You will love this car accident lawyer.
Response from the owner: You are the best! Thanks for the review. Our attorneys work hard but it all starts with a great client.
Several lawyers said to call this lawyer because he is the best. You will appreciate this law firm. Helped with the injury and property claims. Attentive and knowledgeable. Great reputation in St Louis.
Response from the owner: Thanks Lexi. Our #1 source of cases is other lawyers referring us cases that are too big for them to handle.
Would use this accident law firm. Best in Saint Louis. Highly rated and it shows. After one phone call, you just know this attorney is better. 5 Stars!!
Response from the owner: Thanks for recommending our lawyers in St Louis. There is a major difference in lawyers as you well know.
Great law firm thanks Leah for the referral
Response from the owner: Appreciate you recommending our law firm. Car accident litigation is all we do and specializing allows us to focus.
Car accident lawyers on tv are not good . Get this attorney ! He is a pro !!
Response from the owner: Thanks Nathan. TV lawyers market for car accidents, use paralegals instead of lawyers and give their employees settlement quotas hence forcing cheap settlements. At our law firm, you get a lawyer who keeps pushing forward for more.

Get this lawyer if you have an automobile accident. Simply the best!
Response from the owner: Thanks Lizzy. Recommendations from other is the best way to find a car accident attorney.
This lawyer is big time. Smooth. The other lawyers on the other side were not nearly as good as this attorney. I recommend friends in St Louis to him for accident injuries and they all say the same thing…”that lawyer is great.”
Response from the owner: Very nice of you to say. Our lawyers work hard on auto accident cases.
Family used this car accident attorney after a crash. Located in St Louis. This lawyer answers the phone and will walk you through the process. Knows his stuff!
Response from the owner: Taking calls, going over the car accident injury and property process is important. Clients that call always say we are the only lawyers that explained everything. Much appreciated.
Tried the lawyers on TV. They were not good. Hired this car accident lawyer instead because he had great reviews. The reviews are correct. This attorney is as good as they get. He does big injury cases that need to be litigated.
Response from the owner: Car accident lawyers on TV do not litigate cases. It is mass production. They have quotas. Local attorneys are best on auto accidents.
Very very good at injury claims for car wrecks. Use this St Louis attorney. Two thumbs up!
Response from the owner: Thanks for the review! All we do is accidents. When you specialize, your knowledge base and practice skills grow. Thanks!

Maximizing Your Car Accident Settlement

At The Hoffmann Law Firm, L.L.C., we understand that securing a fair settlement after a car accident is crucial for your recovery and financial stability. Several factors can influence your settlement amount in Missouri, and our experienced attorneys work diligently to maximize your compensation.

  • Car accident settlements in Missouri are typically negotiated between the injured party and the at-fault driver’s insurance company. The settlement amount is calculated based on various factors, including:
  • Punitive Damages: In extreme negligence, such as drunk driving accidents, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the at-fault party.
  • Economic Damages: These are quantifiable losses such as:
    • Medical expenses (current and future)
    • Lost wages
    • Property damage
  • Non-Economic Damages: These are more subjective and can include:
    • Pain and suffering
    • Emotional distress
    • Loss of consortium

Several factors can impact your settlement amount:

  • Severity of Injuries: More severe injuries typically result in higher settlements.
  • Type of Accident: Certain accidents involving distracted driving or occurring at intersections may affect liability determination.
  • Comparative Fault: Missouri follows a “pure comparative fault” rule, which means your settlement may be reduced by your percentage of fault in the accident.
  • Future Medical Treatment: This should be factored into your settlement if you require ongoing care.
  • Impact on Quality of Life: Significant lifestyle changes due to injuries can increase non-economic damages.
  1. Document Everything: Keep detailed records of all accident-related expenses, medical treatments, and how the injuries have affected your daily life.
  2. Don’t Rush to Settle: Insurance companies often offer quick, low settlements. Be patient and consult with your attorney before accepting any offer.
  3. Consider All Damages: Ensure all damages are accounted for, including less obvious ones like loss of earning capacity or emotional trauma.
  4. Gather Strong Evidence: This includes police reports, witness statements, and expert testimonies, especially in cases involving fatal car accidents.
  5. Understand the Full Extent of Your Injuries: Some injuries may have long-term consequences. Work with medical professionals to understand the full scope of your injuries and future needs.
  6. Negotiate Effectively: Our experienced attorneys know how to negotiate with insurance companies to secure maximum compensation.

Remember, the average car accident settlement can vary widely based on the specific circumstances of each case. At The Hoffmann Law Firm, L.L.C., we have the knowledge and experience to evaluate your case thoroughly and fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.

Practice Areas

How Do I Receive Full Compensation?

It usually takes work to determine the right compensation amount that someone in an auto accident deserves. Only an experienced St. Louis Car Accident Attorney can consider all factors and help get the maximum possible compensation for the losses suffered in the car accident. It’s crucial to schedule a free consultation with a car accident lawyer in St. Louis soon after an accident. Delays or failures to do so can jeopardize the chances of getting the full compensation to which you may be entitled.

Only give a recorded statement or sign a settlement after consulting an experienced attorney. It is essential to determine the actual value of the case before an agreement is approved, and only a competent St. Louis car accident attorney can do so.

Helping You Recover Maximum Compensation

Our legal team works hard to help you recover the maximum compensation for lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, disability, and reduced quality of life. Because of our strong focus on motor vehicle accident claims, the chances are excellent that we have handled a claim similar to yours.

From intersection collisions resulting in broken bones to high-speed highway crashes resulting in a brain or spinal cord injury, our experience, legal knowledge, and investigative resources can be immediately put to work in determining the exact cause of your car accident. We have experience with all types of car accidents, including:

We have also helped clients secure financial recovery after drunk drivers, uninsured or underinsured motorists, or in a construction zone injured them.

Whether you suffered a herniated disk from a rear-end accident on an exit ramp or your family is suffering from the premature death of a loved one hit by a drunk driver, you need compensation and justice.

We know how to deal with insurance companies that try to minimize claims. We understand their tactics and work diligently to overcome them. We aim to secure full and fair compensation for our clients so that they have the resources they need to move forward.

What types of compensation may I receive?

  • Cost of medical treatment, including hospitalization, prescription drugs, doctor visits, ambulance fees, and physical therapy
  • Emotional pain and suffering
  • Loss of income
  • Repair or replacement of the vehicle
  • Diminished earning capacity
  • Loss of companionship
  • Funeral costs in case of wrongful death
  • Rental car fees
  • Punitive damages
