Why Choose The Bruning Law Firm for Your Case?
The Bruning Law Firm’s success is simply not possible without our clients. We never forget this, as we give our all to win for every client we represent. There are several compelling reasons to hire an attorney from The Bruning Law Firm. When you trust our team to represent you, we promise:
Excellent Client Service
Our office, conveniently located in Creve Coeur, will allow us to provide excellent legal service. You can visit our firm whenever you please, and our team is always available to answer your questions and address your concerns.

The Bruning Law Firm covers all case-related costs, and our fee is contingent on our performance. If we win your case, we get a portion of the recovery. We don’t receive a fee if we don’t get the compensation you deserve.
You never pay out of your own pocket for legal expenses. There is no direct financial risk when you hire The Bruning Law Firm.
To Fight for the Entire Financial Recovery You Are Entitled To
In some personal injury cases, there comes a moment when a law firm can accept a comparatively easy settlement. This settlement may not include the entire amount of compensation that the client deserves, but it is a less costly alternative to trial.
The Bruning Law Firm never accepts such settlements unless the client absolutely insists. Fighting for our clients is what we do. If your Creve Coeur personal injury lawyer has yet to receive a fair settlement offer, they’ll continue fighting at trial.
Trustworthy Legal Service
Our clients’ trust is everything to us. We’ll work hard to earn your trust and never let you down. From how we treat you to how we handle your case, expect The Bruning Law Firm to act as your trustworthy legal advisors.
Damages We Seek Compensation for in Personal Injury Cases
Our attorneys have years of experience getting compensation for deserving clients. Our team will complete a deep dive into your damages, identifying every type of harm that entitles you to compensation.
We may find that your recoverable damages include:
- Pain and suffering: Most of our clients experience some type(s) of pain and suffering, though each case is unique. Pain and suffering can include physical pain, emotional distress, psychological anguish, depression, anxiety, suicide, and lost quality of life. These are just some examples of pain and suffering that may entitle you to money.
- Treatment for pain and suffering: The Bruning Law Firm will also seek compensation to treat your pain and suffering. Treatments may include psychotherapy, counseling, medications, and any other treatment regimen that improves your symptoms.
- Medical care: We’ll include in your case any medical bills resulting from someone else’s negligence. Our clients often require emergency transport, various doctor’s appointments, medications, hospitalization, and other medical services. In severe cases, they may need medical equipment and lifelong care.
- Professional damages: In a personal injury case, these damages can include lost income, lost earning power, missed promotions and bonuses, lost professional fulfillment, and more. Professional damages have a direct financial cost, and we’ll determine that cost in your case.
- Damages from a disability: If you or a loved one suffer a permanent disability, you may need to add equipment to your home, hire full-time caregivers, and make sacrifices to assist the disabled loved one. We are familiar with the cost of disabling injuries.
- Property expenses: Some case types, like car accident cases, involve extensive property damage. Even if your property damage seems minor by comparison, we’ll include repair or replacement costs in your case.
- Rehabilitation costs: We want our clients to reach full health without paying a dime. So, we include the cost of rehabilitation in lawsuits when appropriate.
The more serious your injury is, the more costly damages tend to be. For example, the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation reports that a spinal cord injury can cost over $1 million in the first year alone. The expenses can continue for the rest of a victim’s life.
At The Bruning Law Firm, it’s our job to ensure you don’t pay for damages you haven’t caused. Liable parties should cover these economic and non-economic damages.
Recoverable Damages in Wrongful Death Cases
Tragically, our firm encounters individuals and families who have lost a loved one under negligent circumstances. If you have lost a loved one, always consider whether their death was wrongful.
Losing a loved one is, for many, the most difficult event one can experience.
You must get justice for your loss, and a personal injury lawyer from our team can seek a financial recovery for:
- The decedent’s pain and suffering
- Your pain and suffering
- Lost companionship
- Lost parental guidance
- Funeral and burial costs
- Loss of the decedent’s income (and other financial support)
- Loss of the decedent’s household services (skills, labor, advice)
- The decedent’s medical expenses
- All other damages caused by the wrongful death
Our firm’s case results include multiple recoveries for wrongful death victims. These cases are extremely important to The Bruning Law Firm because we fight for the decedent and surviving loved ones.
That said, every case is extremely important to us. If you hire The Bruning Law Firm to represent you, expect our very best.
What if I Choose Not to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury attorney is a choice generally a good one, we will always argue.
Many issues arise when someone chooses not to hire an attorney, including:
- Losing well-deserved compensation: This is not to say that hiring a lawyer guarantees you will get the compensation you deserve. However, The Bruning Law Firm brings resources and experience that can be a credit to your case. If you don’t hire a lawyer, you may not get these benefits.
- Physical health problems: Your recovery is most important. If you try to spread yourself between recovery and a lawsuit or claim, you may spread yourself thin. This may pose the risk of worsening existing health problems and causing new ones.
- Psychological problems: Dealing with insurance claims and lawsuits can be stressful. This may be especially true if you’re already feeling stressed.
- Paying costly fees and expenses: The Bruning Law Firm covers the cost of completing your case. Obviously, we cannot cover case-related costs if you don’t hire us for your case. This means you’ll have to pay those costs yourself.
If you deserve compensation, hire a lawyer to pursue it for you.
