Wrongful Death Compensation for a Traffic Fatality
Was your loved one killed in a car accident through the careless or reckless actions of another driver? To recover wrongful death compensation, it is necessary to prove the other party was at fault (or mostly at fault). It is also necessary to prove each element of damages to maximize compensation.
The experienced trial lawyers of Kolker & Germeroth, L.L.C., have handled thousands of motor vehicle accidents, including verdicts and settlements for wrongful death in fatal car accidents. We have the knowledge and the resources to identify the negligence and build a strong case for full monetary reparations.

Fatal Car and Motorcycle Accident Lawyers
Our firm is built to handle serious and complex accidents, such as fatal outcomes of car accidents, truck accidents and motorcycle accidents, including bicyclists or pedestrians killed by motor vehicles. If liability is disputed, we have a network of accident reconstructionists, human factors engineers and other experts who can analyze the evidence to determine who was at fault.
Our skilled attorneys assemble a compelling case for liability, including cases in which multiple parties or third parties may be named in the lawsuit. We are prepared to go all the way to trial and our adversaries know it, which often results in favorable and timely settlements. Our attorneys can also counter defense arguments of comparative negligence on the part of the victim, which would reduce any wrongful death award by a corresponding amount.
Just as important as proving fault is making the case for compensation. We work to maximize the recovery of wrongful death damages under Missouri statutes by working closely with the accident victim's family. We are here to support the family in every way we can through a difficult time.
