What Types of Damages Can You Recover in a Wrongful Death Case?

In Missouri, compensation for wrongful death claims can include the following:

• Funeral and burial expenses
• Lost income and benefits
• Medical bills incurred before the deceased’s passing
• Pain and suffering experienced by the deceased before their death
