Wrongful Death Lawyers in St. Louis, MO

There is nothing more difficult than losing a loved one. The tragedy is compounded when the death was preventable and due to the negligence of others.

In wrongful death lawsuits, Gray Ritter Graham works to hold negligent parties responsible and obtain fair and just compensation on behalf of the victim’s surviving family members.

Wrongful Death Claims & Damages

If your loved one died due to another person’s negligence, Gray Ritter Graham, will investigate your case and diligently work to obtain financial compensation for your loss.

 Compensation for most wrongful death claims can cover such items as:

• Medical bills
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Lost earnings for support of a child or spouse

Furthermore, when a loved one dies in a preventable accident, the surviving family members may suffer significant “noneconomic losses.” Compensation, then, may also be awarded for items such as pain and suffering and loss of companionship, guidance, and support.
