Do You Have a Legal Wrongful Death Claim?
A wrongful death case arises when an individual dies due to the negligence, malpractice or inaction of another person. When this kind of tragedy occurs, the law allows the family of the victim to file a claim against the person responsible.
In a wrongful death action a spouse, child or next of kin can seek recovery, including:
- Medical treatment and hospital costs resulting from accident or fatal injury
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Compensation for the decedent's pain and suffering
- Financial losses suffered by the decedent's spouse, children or next of kin
- Loss of parental guidance and companionship for spouse and children
We Work With Leading National Experts
When we prepare your case, we work with nationally recognized experts in the field of life-care and survivor needs. We fight aggressively for maximum compensation and have a strong record of significant settlements and jury awards, including:
- $600,000 settlement for the parents of a single man killed when a truck ran a red light and broadsided his vehicle.
- $400,000 settlement for the family of a man who was killed when his tractor-trailer overturned on a curved highway exit ramp. The claim was brought against the truck manufacturer, charging that the cab of the tractor-trailer lacked crash-worthiness.
