Exceptions and details
Missouri's general PI negligence period is 5 years (section in effect since 1939, still current on the Revisor site). Other claims have their own, different periods under separate statutes (e.g., medical malpractice, wrongful death, and intentional torts such as assault, battery, libel/slander), so those are not governed by § 516.120.
The Missouri Bar no longer lists a fee-based Lawyer Referral Service; its public 'Find a Lawyer' link goes to LawyerSearch, a free list of Missouri lawyers who have opted in and say they are accepting new clients (searchable by practice area and county). Missouri Courts' 'Finding and Hiring a Lawyer' page points to the same tool.
