At Strong Law P.C., we fight for the people of St. Louis and the surrounding metro when carelessness or misconduct leaves them injured and facing an uncertain future. Our attorneys bring aggressive trial experience to every personal injury and civil litigation matter we handle, and we work relentlessly to recover every dollar our clients are owed under Missouri law. We serve clients across the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County, St. Charles County, Jefferson County, and the broader eastern Missouri region. Below is an overview of our practice areas:

Semi Truck Accidents

St. Louis is one of the busiest freight crossroads in the United States. Four major interstates converge in the metro area. Interstate 70 carries east west traffic from Kansas City to Indianapolis, Interstate 55 connects Chicago to Memphis through the heart of the city, Interstate 64 runs east from downtown across the Poplar Street Bridge into Illinois, and Interstate 44 links St. Louis to Springfield, Tulsa, and points southwest. That volume of commercial truck traffic produces a steady stream of catastrophic collisions on corridors like the I-70 and I-270 interchange, the I-55 and I-44 merge near downtown, and the congested stretch of I-64 through the central corridor. Strong Law P.C. pursues claims against trucking companies, fleet operators, freight brokers, and their insurers for violations of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations, logbook falsification, overloaded trailers, and fatigued driving. We make sure that families devastated by a semi truck collision recover the full compensation the law allows.

Motorcycle Accidents

St. Louis riders face a dangerous combination of dense urban traffic, aging road surfaces, and drivers who fail to check blind spots before changing lanes. Congested corridors like Kingshighway Boulevard, Hampton Avenue, Lindbergh Boulevard, and the ramps feeding onto I-64 and I-44 are common sites for turning collisions and sideswipe impacts that leave motorcyclists with devastating injuries. Missouri does not require helmets for riders over 26 who maintain qualifying insurance coverage, which means head trauma, spinal damage, and severe road rash are frequently part of the injury profile in St. Louis motorcycle crashes. Our attorneys understand the biases motorcyclists often face from insurance adjusters and juries, and we advocate forcefully for riders’ rights under Missouri’s pure comparative negligence standard to ensure our clients receive every dollar they deserve.

Car Accidents

The St. Louis metro has one of the highest traffic crash and fatality rates in Missouri. The city sits at the junction of multiple interstates, and hundreds of thousands of commuters travel between the city, St. Louis County, and the Metro East daily. Notorious crash hotspots include the Hampton Avenue and Interstate 64 interchange, the Kingshighway and St. Louis Avenue intersection, and the congested stretches of I-55 through south city. Missouri’s recently enacted hands free driving law targets distracted driving, which remains a leading contributor to crashes across the region. Strong Law P.C. handles every type of car accident claim for St. Louis area residents, from rear end collisions on local streets to multi car pileups on the interstate, and we are prepared to take contested liability cases to trial in the St. Louis City Circuit Court or St. Louis County Circuit Court when insurers refuse to offer a fair settlement.

Product Liability

When a defective product injures a St. Louis resident, whether it is a faulty vehicle component that fails at highway speed, a recalled consumer appliance, or a pharmaceutical with undisclosed side effects, Strong Law P.C. holds every party in the supply chain accountable. Missouri’s strict product liability framework allows injured consumers to pursue claims based on design defects, manufacturing flaws, or inadequate warnings without proving traditional negligence. St. Louis is home to major manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and distribution operations, and our firm has the resources to retain engineers, toxicologists, and industry specialists who can identify the defect, establish causation, and quantify the full scope of harm. We pursue claims that cover medical expenses, lost income, future care needs, and compensation for pain and diminished quality of life.

Gas Explosion

The St. Louis region’s natural gas infrastructure, much of it maintained by Spire (formerly Laclede Gas), includes aging mains, transmission lines, and decades old underground storage fields scattered across the metro. When that infrastructure fails, the consequences can be catastrophic. In 2025, a suspected natural gas explosion leveled five homes and damaged more than 20 others in a north St. Louis County subdivision near Black Jack, injuring multiple residents and triggering investigations by the St. Louis County Police bomb and arson squad, the ATF, and the Missouri Public Service Commission. A separate Spire investigation followed a gas line strike and home explosion in Glendale. Strong Law P.C. works with fire investigators, pipeline safety engineers, and federal regulators to trace the source of gas explosions and pursue claims for burn injuries, blast trauma, property loss, and wrongful death against negligent utilities, contractors, and property owners.

Construction Site Injury

St. Louis is experiencing a historic wave of construction and redevelopment. The $1.75 billion National Geospatial Intelligence Agency campus is the largest federal investment project in the city’s history. The $230 million Saint Louis Zoo WildCare Park is taking shape in north county. Powell Hall underwent a major expansion, America’s Center Convention Complex is being modernized, and MoDOT is investing nearly $400 million in bridge and pavement projects across the region in 2026 alone. That scale of active construction means workers face constant exposure to scaffolding collapses, crane incidents, trench cave ins, electrocution, and equipment failures. Missouri workers’ compensation covers baseline medical and wage benefits, but when a general contractor, subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner caused or contributed to the hazard, injured workers may pursue a separate personal injury claim for full damages. Strong Law P.C. understands both systems and fights to maximize recovery through every available legal avenue.

Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injuries are a frequent consequence of the car crashes, truck collisions, falls, and assaults that occur daily across the St. Louis metro. The region’s Level I Trauma Centers, including Barnes Jewish Hospital and SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital, provide advanced neurosurgical intervention, but even the best acute care cannot reverse the long term cognitive, behavioral, and emotional damage that a severe TBI inflicts. Victims may struggle with memory loss, impaired reasoning, personality changes, seizures, and an inability to return to work or live independently. Strong Law P.C. collaborates with neuropsychologists, life care planners, and vocational rehabilitation experts to build claims that capture the full lifetime cost of a brain injury, including decades of therapy, adaptive equipment, home modifications, and lost earning capacity.

Spinal Cord Injury

A spinal cord injury from a St. Louis area car crash, construction accident, or fall can transform every dimension of a person’s life in an instant. Paraplegia and quadriplegia require ongoing medical management, physical rehabilitation, adaptive equipment, home and vehicle modifications, and often around the clock attendant care. The lifetime cost can run into the millions of dollars. Missouri’s pure comparative negligence rule allows victims to recover damages even if they share some degree of fault, with the award reduced only by their assigned percentage of responsibility. Strong Law P.C. retains spinal cord injury specialists and rehabilitation economists to document every element of future need and ensure that settlements and jury verdicts reflect the true financial and personal burden our clients and their families will carry.

Slip and Fall Accidents

St. Louis’s climate creates persistent slip and fall risks throughout the year. Ice storms, freezing rain, and rapid freeze thaw cycles make sidewalks, parking lots, and building entrances treacherous from late November through early March, while summer thunderstorms leave wet floors, standing water, and slick tile in commercial properties across the metro. Under Missouri premises liability law, property owners owe varying duties of care based on the visitor’s legal status. Invited guests, such as shoppers and restaurant patrons, are owed the highest duty, including regular inspection and prompt removal of hazards. Missouri courts apply a “natural accumulation” rule to ice and snow, but owners who allow drainage to refreeze, neglect to salt walkways within a reasonable time, or ignore known hazards can still be held responsible. Strong Law P.C. investigates slip and fall incidents at St. Louis shopping centers, office buildings, apartment complexes, hospitals, and public properties to identify every liable party and pursue full compensation.

Wrongful Death

Under Missouri law, a deceased person’s spouse, children, parents, or other statutory beneficiaries may bring a wrongful death action when someone’s negligence or intentional misconduct causes a fatality. Missouri also permits punitive damages in wrongful death cases involving egregious conduct, a provision that many other states do not extend to surviving family members. The statute of limitations for wrongful death in Missouri is three years, which is shorter than the five year deadline for most personal injury claims, so time is critical. Strong Law P.C. has represented St. Louis families who lost loved ones in interstate crashes, workplace fatalities, medical emergencies involving delayed or negligent treatment, and other preventable tragedies. We pursue claims that account for funeral costs, lost future earnings, loss of consortium and companionship, and the immeasurable grief that follows a wrongful death.

Boating Accidents

St. Louis sits at the confluence of two of America’s most significant waterways, the Mississippi River and the Missouri River, and recreational boating is woven into the fabric of life here. Residents also frequent Creve Coeur Lake, Carlyle Lake, and the Lake of the Ozarks for weekend boating, fishing, and water sports. The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Water Division reported 122 boating injuries and 28 fatalities across the state in a recent year, and the St. Louis metro accounts for a meaningful share of that total. Operator negligence, intoxication, excessive speed, overcrowded vessels, and defective equipment are the most common causes. Missouri lowered the legal blood alcohol limit for boaters to 0.08 after a series of alcohol related accidents on the state’s waterways. Strong Law P.C. understands Missouri’s boating regulations and works with accident reconstruction experts to establish fault and secure compensation for victims of recreational boating collisions, drownings, and propeller injuries.

Bad Faith Insurance

Missouri policyholders are entitled to the coverage they purchased, and when an insurer unreasonably delays payment, lowballs a valid claim, or denies coverage without a legitimate basis, that insurer may be acting in bad faith. Missouri’s Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act imposes specific obligations on how insurance companies must investigate and pay claims, and violations can expose the insurer to liability far exceeding the original policy limits, including punitive damages. Strong Law P.C. represents St. Louis residents and business owners who have been wrongfully denied auto, homeowner’s, health, commercial, or umbrella insurance benefits. We understand the delay and deny tactics that insurers rely on, and we are fully prepared to litigate bad faith claims in St. Louis City Circuit Court, St. Louis County Circuit Court, or the Eastern District of Missouri federal court when an insurer refuses to honor its obligations.

Medical Malpractice

St. Louis is one of the nation’s premier medical centers. Barnes Jewish Hospital, the largest hospital in Missouri with over 1,200 beds, serves as the adult teaching hospital for Washington University School of Medicine and is consistently ranked among the top hospitals in the country. The BJC HealthCare system operates 28 hospitals across the region, and SSM Health, Mercy, and a network of specialty clinics and surgical centers add thousands more patient encounters each day. When any of these providers falls below the accepted standard of care, the consequences for patients can be catastrophic. Missouri law requires that medical malpractice plaintiffs file an affidavit of merit from a qualified health care professional before proceeding, and claims carry a shorter filing deadline than general personal injury cases. Strong Law P.C. has the resources to retain board certified medical experts, dissect complex medical records, and hold negligent physicians, surgeons, nurses, and hospital systems fully accountable for diagnostic failures, surgical errors, medication mistakes, and birth injuries.

Commercial Litigation

St. Louis is home to a diverse business economy that includes Fortune 500 headquarters, financial services firms, healthcare conglomerates, technology companies, manufacturing operations, and a growing startup ecosystem. Commercial disputes are an inevitable part of that landscape. Strong Law P.C. represents businesses and individuals in breach of contract actions, partnership and LLC disputes, fraud and misrepresentation claims, tortious interference, and trade secret litigation. We handle matters in the St. Louis City Circuit Court, St. Louis County Circuit Court, and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. Whether a supplier breached a critical agreement, a former partner diverted company assets, or a competitor engaged in unfair business practices, our litigation team brings the same intensity and preparation to commercial cases that we bring to our personal injury work.

At Strong Law P.C., we are dedicated to the St. Louis community and to holding negligent parties accountable across the metro.
