Suvir Dhar is a seasoned litigator specializing in toxic exposure and catastrophic injury cases, dedicated to representing working-class individuals and their families against negligent corporations. He has advocated for hundreds of workers diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer, blood cancers such as AML, NHL, and CLL, and other serious diseases.

Driven by a profound commitment to protecting his clients, Suvir provides a pathway to justice through the legal system. He builds trust by connecting with clients on a personal level, leveraging his extensive professional and personal experiences. Licensed to practice law in Arizona, California, Missouri, and Illinois, Suvir has litigated cases nationwide.

“I will always fight for underdogs. Too many folks get taken advantage of by their employers or by the system; they deserve justice, accountability, and someone to fight with and for them.”

Experience

Before joining Gianaris Trial Lawyers, Suvir was a partner at two national law firms, where he represented hundreds of workers and victims in catastrophic injury and exposure cases, resulting in several hundred million dollars in settlements and verdicts. At both firms, he consistently ranked in the top two for settlements and verdicts.

Suvir also served as the Executive Director of a technology non-profit, using technical software and systems engineering to uplift underserved communities in the greater St. Louis area. He led brand development, coordinated community partnerships and outreach strategies, managed staff and contract employees, and acted as the liaison between the non-profit and its technology and business partners.

In January 2023, Suvir returned to law, working alongside Gianaris Trial Lawyers on toxic exposure cases. He continues to zealously represent working-class people and their families, particularly those employed by railroads, industrial, and manufacturing companies, and other sites where workers are exposed to carcinogens and dangerous products.

Suvir is passionate about volunteering and helping underserved communities. He despises bullies and enjoys helping underdogs find justice and hold bad actors accountable. He serves as board chair for a charter school foundation in North St. Louis and an organization aimed at ending homelessness in St. Louis. He is also a board member of the St. Louis Library Foundation and has previously served on boards for The United Way and The Wyman Center. Suvir was named the 2020 Man of the Year by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of St. Louis. These experiences enable him to personally connect with, empathize with, and relate to his clients.

Suvir graduated from William Jewell College as a scholar-athlete and member of the men’s basketball team. He earned his law degree from Oklahoma City University in 2007.

In his free time, Suvir loves spending time with his wife and two boys, along with their sometimes stubborn but mostly nice bulldog, Rip. He enjoys meeting new and interesting people over good conversation, good food, and a beer. And he really loves playing pranks on unsuspecting friends.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a personal injury case?

    A personal injury case is a legal dispute that arises when one person suffers harm from an accident or injury, and someone else might be legally responsible for that harm. Personal injury cases typically involve injuries to the body, mind or emotions, and not property. Examples include car accidents, medical malpractice, slip and fall accidents, toxic exposures and more.

    If you have been injured by someone or a company's negligence or wrongful actions, you may have a personal injury case. It is important to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney to determine the strength of your case and your legal options.

    The value of a personal injury case can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the severity of the injury, the amount of medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you determine the potential value of your case. It is critical to speak with an experienced attorney to maximize the value of your case.

    The length of time it takes to settle a personal injury case can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the complexity of the case, the availability of insurance coverage, and the willingness of the parties to negotiate a settlement. Some cases may be resolved in a matter of months, while others may take longer. The harder your attorney works on the case, the more likely it settles quickly.

    Negligence is the failure to exercise the degree of care that a reasonably prudent person would use in similar circumstances. To prove negligence in a personal injury case, your attorney must show that the defendant did something that a reasonably careful person would not do, and that it caused a physical injury.
