Wrongful Death<\/h1><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>

Unfortunately, negligent conduct sometimes results in the death of an innocent person. Surviving family members, already struggling with the loss of a loved one, are often left with unexpected expenses, loss of financial support, and worries about the future. In Missouri, the law allows for compensation when an individual dies as the result of another\u2019s negligence. When a wrongful death occurs, family members, including the spouse, parents, children, and siblings may bring a wrongful death action to recover damages resulting from the death of a loved one.
 
<\/strong>A wrongful death action can arise in many situations. Some of the more common types of wrongful death actions result from motor vehicle crashes, negligent medical treatment, nursing home negligence, falls, and the use of defective machinery.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Damages that are recoverable under the law include medical bills, funeral expenses and lost future earnings. Family members may also recover non-economic damages, including the value of the care, comfort, guidance and companionship of a deceased loved one. In circumstances where the negligent party\u2019s conduct was willful or reckless, damages in the nature of punitive damages may be awarded.
