The Bruning Law FirmSt. Louis

The Bruning Law Firm, a St. Louis personal injury practice, was founded in January 2016 by brothers Tony, Ryan, and A.J. Bruning. Inspired by their father, a prominent personal injury attorney, the brothers established the firm to uphold his legacy while addressing what they identified as inefficiencies in the industry. The founders noted that other firms lacked effective, streamlined workflow systems.

Tony Bruning has since retired, while A.J. and Ryan transitioned from practicing law to focusing on the firm’s infrastructure and growth. A.J. leads innovation by overseeing data, automation, and technology systems that drive efficiency. Ryan manages finance and operations, ensuring scalability and smooth business operations.

The firm’s long-term goal is becoming the most trusted and recognized personal injury firm in St. Louis and throughout the region. The brothers explained they live and raise their families in St. Louis and want to give back to communities that support them. The firm supports the National MS Society, NAMI St. Louis, Kids’ Chance Missouri, Burns Recovered, and Food Outreach.
