"Northland Injury Law listened to me and took my case when others would not! Steve Mowry was a great support and communicated with me throughout the entire process. The staff was both personable and professional. They were sympathetic and treated me respectfully. I felt like my privacy was just as important to them as it was to me. I was glad I found Northland Injury Law and Steve Mowry to represent me. Shelly McEnroe

"Mr. Bartlett from Northland Injury Law represented me after I was involved in a hit and run accident. By far the best attorney to have on your side. The most honest and up front attorney that one could ask for. A J Forde
"Northland Injury Law was recommended by a friend; it was a great choice. Eric and Angie where always available whenever I had questions. They were professional and kept me informed. I appreciate Eric and Angie being easy to talk to, explaining the process and the great quality of service provided. Joshua Lindley
"I WOULD and WILL recommend them to anyone. Stephen Mowry is a great person, very down to earth, easy to work with, concerned and caring. Just a word of advice to those seeking legal help. BE PATIENT! These guys work hard and the wheels of the legal system turn slow. Don’t grow impatient or angry with your legal help. Trust me they are doing their best for YOU! Brent Riddle
"Not the usual representation of what people portray of what an attorney is. These are very helpful and down to earth people at this office that has your best interest in mind. Not just my personal experience with them but have had several close friends use them as well and couldn’t be happier. Always had me an answer in a timely manner without a bunch of runaround like I had had in the past with others. If you want a good smooth case and not just be another Number then I would highly recommend these guys. Michael Van Brunt
"Steve and his office did an amazing job with my settlement in regards to a work related injury. I was always able to get ahold of Steve and he answered any question I asked him. No one else I would recommend other than Steve. He even took less of a percentage to help me out. He is unequivocally, the best lawyer this side of the Mississippi. Melissa Decker
"I had an issue with my employer not wanting to cover workman’s comp for an on the job injury. I called this law firm to find out if they could help. They answered all my questions and helped me through the process. If I ever had a question I would call or email and they would respond quickly. The whole settlement seemed to resolve quicker than what I expected. I would definitely use them again in the future if needed!

Late August through September, grain trucks and farm haulers start filling Northwest Missouri's two-lane highways again. On routes like 71, 36, and 29 that feed into Kansas City, harvest traffic often means slower rigs mixed in with commuters rushing home.

If a hauler hits you, photograph the truck's DOT number, company name, cargo, road conditions, and any skid marks, then grab the other driver's plate and witness contacts before people leave. Get checked out. Don't give a recorded statement to the trucking company's insurer.

Carriers must keep ELD records of duty status and supporting documents for six months. Dash cam footage isn't held to that standard. Onboard cameras typically overwrite in days to a week, and cloud copies can clear out in a month or two—right where the footage that shows fault usually lives.

If a grain truck or hauler hit you on one of these rural routes this fall, call us: 816-400-4878.

Think you’re fully covered? Your insurance policy might say otherwise.

The fine print matters—especially after a serious accident. Eric breaks down why you should know what’s actually in your policy before you ever need to make a claim, including coverage limits, exclusions, and protections that could make a major difference.

The first call we make after you hire us isn't to the insurance company. It's to the carrier, telling them what they can't touch.

That call turns into a preservation letter naming the hours-of-service logs, the ELD data, the maintenance records, and the camera footage. Federal rules already require carriers to hold onto driver logs and ELD data for six months, and maintenance records for a year while the truck's still in service. Dash cam footage doesn't get that same protection. Onboard cameras typically overwrite within days, and cloud copies often clear out within a month or two.

Missouri courts can tell a jury to assume that missing evidence would have hurt the carrier's case. That's why we typically send that letter within 24 to 72 hours of taking your call, right while continuous footage still exists to save.

Before that footage is gone, call us: 816-400-4878.

🚨 PODCAST REWIND: What happens when serving legal papers goes too far?

When someone reportedly tried to serve Taylor Swift with a subpoena at Travis Kelce’s Kansas home, it led to an arrest for trespassing—and raised some interesting legal questions. In this throwback episode in honor of Chiefs season starting on Monday and their recent wedding, Eric explains what process servers can legally do, where the line is drawn, and how Taylor Swift became tangled up in the Blake Lively–Justin Baldoni legal battle.

⚠️ A lot has changed since we originally recorded this episode. We’ve added an update in the video description explaining what ultimately happened with Taylor Swift, the trespassing case, and the larger Lively-Baldoni lawsuit.

The name painted on the side of that Northland school bus matters more than you'd guess if one ever ends up in your crash. It tells you the bus belongs to a school district. That changes your deadline.

Most Missouri car accident claims give you five years to file a lawsuit. But when the at-fault vehicle belongs to a public entity like a school district, you have to put your claim in writing and file that notice within 90 days of the injury. Folks burn through those weeks focused on the years they assume they have.

Ninety days moves fast when you're healing and the bills keep landing. Call our team at 816-400-4878 and we'll help you figure out who you're actually up against.
Better to sort that out now than after the window shuts.

Sometimes the real pain doesn't show up right away. You might not notice until you can't lift your toddler into the car seat, or the headaches won't quit. The ER discharge summary still says everything looked fine.

That gap between the ER visit and when the real pain shows up matters more than people expect. When symptoms surface days or weeks after a clean discharge, insurance adjusters and courts often scrutinize the causal link more closely. Soft tissue injuries tend to be the ones that show up late. The longer that gap sits without documentation, the harder it becomes to tie what you're feeling now back to the wreck.

A follow-up appointment does more than treat what hurts. It creates the record tying today's symptoms back to the crash.

The earlier in the case, the more options you have. Call us: 816-400-4878.

The paramedic asks if you want to get checked out. You wave them off. Just shaken up, nothing broken, ready to get home.

That's the moment that costs people later. Symptoms that show up days or weeks after a clean discharge often get scrutinized harder by adjusters and courts, and soft tissue injuries tend to be the ones that surface late. Getting checked at the scene starts the record that ties today to what hurts next week.

While you wait, photograph both cars, the road, and the other driver's plate. Skid marks and debris don't wait for someone official to document them.

The at-fault driver's insurer typically calls within a day or two for your side of the story. Get checked out, get your photos, and call us at 816-400-4878 before that call comes in.

That's the version that holds up.
