Wrongful Death

Best Wrongful Death Attorneys | Joplin MO | Columbia MO

The loss of a loved one can be the most painful event a family may experience. The pain, anguish and grief are often almost too much to bear. This pain is often increased by anger if the death was caused by the negligence or recklessness of another person(s) or a dangerous product.

A wrongful death action is a civil claim (not criminal) made by survivors of a person who died due to the negligent, reckless or intentional act committed by another person or group of persons or due to a dangerous product. Wrongful death lawsuits aim to compensate family members after a fatal accident has caused the death of their loved one. Although shock and grief may make consulting an attorney difficult, it is important for survivors to consider retaining a wrongful death attorney as soon as possible so that the financial and practical impact of the death can be addressed and the responsible party can be held accountable.
