Wrongful Death

Wrongful Death Attorney Jefferson City

Individuals sometimes die as a result of the conduct of others. Wrongful death claims arise as a result of the intentional or negligent acts of others. Wrongful death claims can occur when a person has suffered injuries, such as from a car accident or semi-truck collision. The person initially survives, but later dies from the injuries that were inflicted. In such situations, a person may have a wrongful death claim. In other instances, a person may die as a result of a defective condition in a car, truck, vehicle, or equipment, or as a result of the manufacturer’s failure to properly warn a person of certain hazards from using a car or equipment.

Wrongful Death or Injury Attorney in Missouri

Claims for wrongful death actions are governed by statute in Missouri. The Missouri statutes set out who can file a claim for wrongful death. Not every person is entitled to bring a claim for wrongful death. Wrongful death claims may be brought by spouses, parents, children, or other relatives, but the statute specifies who is given preference or priority to maintain such a claim. The statute also specifies what the court may consider in determining how to apportion any money received as a result of a wrongful death claim.
