AREA OF LEGAL PRACTICE

WRONGFUL DEATH

The loss of a loved one is always devastating, but when that loss is caused by someone else’s negligence or intentional wrongdoing, the grief can be even more overwhelming.

What is Wrongful Death?

Wrongful death occurs when a person’s death is caused by the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another party. This can include a wide range of incidents, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and more. While nothing can replace the loss of a loved one, pursuing a wrongful death claim can provide financial relief and help ensure that the responsible parties are held accountable.  Wrongful death can result from various types of accidents or actions, including:

What to do if you suspect Wrongful Death

If you believe that your loved one’s death was caused by the negligence or intentional wrongdoing of another party, it is important to take the following steps:

.01

Gather Evidence: Document the circumstances surrounding the death. Collect medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and any other evidence that may support your claim.

.02

Consult with an Attorney: Wrongful death cases are complex and require a detailed investigation. An experienced attorney can help you determine the best course of action and guide you through the legal process.

.03

File a Claim: In most cases, a wrongful death claim must be filed within a certain time frame. An attorney can help you understand the applicable statute of limitations and ensure that your claim is filed on time.

.04

Support Your Family: The emotional toll of losing a loved one can be overwhelming. Take the time to lean on your support system, and allow us to handle the legal complexities on your behalf.

  • Medical Expenses: Any medical costs incurred prior to their death.

  • Loss of Financial Support: Compensation for the income your loved one would have contributed to your family.
