Wrongful Death

(FREE CONSULTATION)

Wrongful death is a claim in common law jurisdictions against a person who can be held liable for a death.

Typically, this is the death of a family member caused by the fault of another. Fault could be the result of negligence, reckless or intentional misconduct. Examples of such fault are drunk driving, defective or dangerous products, unsound structure or building, or a physician's failing to diagnose or treat a treatable disease.

Wrongful death lawsuits are filed by husbands, wives, children, parents, brothers, sisters and financially dependent children, whether or not formally adopted.

Claims are filed to recover:

· Monetary damages to cover the earnings the deceased person.

· Medical and funeral expenses.

· Loss of support.

· Lost benefits, such as insurance.

· Loss of inheritance from an untimely death.

· Loss of love, companionship, comfort, care, assistance, protection, affection, or care.

· Punitive damages, intended to punish defendants and deter them from harming others in the future.

The sudden death of a family member or loved due to an accident causes shock, disbelief and stress to the surviving family members. At such a time the idea of hiring an attorney to investigate the cause of death and protect the rights of those affected by the loss is often the last consideration on the minds of family members.

Nevertheless, there are many reasons to hire an attorney immediately when you believe that the death was caused by another's fault. Very often, those causing death are never held accountable due to the failure of surviving family members to hire an attorney immediately. Important evidence can be lost or destroyed in the days and weeks following the death. Moreover, varying statutes of limitation may eliminate the possibility of recovery if too much time passes before hiring an attorney. We have an experienced caring staff to help the surviving family members and you should consult with one of our attorneys as soon as possible.
