We are here, ready to tackle your unique situation and help you navigate the road ahead. 

Losing a loved one unexpectedly is one of life’s most painful experiences—especially when that loss is caused by someone else’s negligence. Alongside the emotional trauma, families often face medical bills, funeral costs, and a sudden loss of financial and emotional support. If your family is facing this kind of tragedy, you may have legal grounds to file a wrongful death claim and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.



At Finder Law, we help families across Jefferson City and Mid-Missouri seek accountability and financial compensation after a wrongful death. While no legal outcome can ever replace what you’ve lost, taking action can provide stability, closure, and a sense of justice moving forward.

A wrongful death claim is a civil lawsuit brought when someone dies as a result of another person or entity’s negligent, reckless, or intentional actions. In Missouri, these claims are governed by state law and may be filed by the surviving spouse, children, parents, or—in some cases—siblings or estate representatives.

These cases can arise from many types of incidents, including:

• Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
  
  
• Pedestrian or bicycle crashes
  
  
• Dangerous or defective products
  
  
• Slip and fall or property-related accidents
  
  
  
• Workplace accidents
  
  
• Violent crimes or assaults
  
  

If your loved one would have had a valid personal injury claim had they survived, their family may now be entitled to pursue a wrongful death action.

Wrongful death lawsuits seek to compensate the surviving family members for the losses they’ve endured due to the untimely death. Recoverable damages may include:



• Funeral and burial expenses
  
  
• Medical bills related to the final injury or illness
  
  
• Loss of income and financial support
  
  
• Loss of companionship, guidance, and consortium
  
  
• Emotional pain and suffering
  
  
• Value of household services the deceased provided
  
  
• Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence or intentional harm)
  
  

We work closely with families, financial experts, and medical professionals to calculate the full scope of these losses and build a case that honors your loved one’s memory.

Wrongful death claims are complex and often emotionally overwhelming. Insurance companies may try to settle quickly—and for far less than your family deserves. At Finder Law, we take the pressure off your shoulders and provide steady, experienced legal guidance every step of the way.



We handle all the legal details—investigating the cause of death, identifying all responsible parties, negotiating with insurers, and preparing your case for trial if necessary. Our goal is to help your family receive justice, accountability, and the financial support you need to move forward.
