What if I learned my loved one’s death was caused by negligence months after they died?


You can still seek compensation even if you discovered someone was liable for the death months later.

Missouri does not have a discovery rule, so you will still have three years to file a wrongful death lawsuit starting on the date of your loved one’s death. It’s best to speak with our Kansas City wrongful death attorneys as soon as possible.
