Can family members sue for the effects of a person’s brain injury?


Potentially, yes. In Missouri, a spouse can bring a separate loss of consortium claim. In these situations, a brain injury has affected their spouse’s behavior, resulting in a loss of intimacy, loss of companionship or affection, the inability to participate in the marriage or as a parent, and changes in the overall relationship. 

When you meet with our attorneys, we can discuss all potential options for compensation based on the way a brain injury has affected your household.
