Wrongful Death

What Is a Wrongful Death Claim?

A wrongful death claim arises when a person loses their life due to another party’s careless, reckless, or intentional actions. These claims are meant to provide financial relief and accountability when a tragic loss could have been prevented.

Wrongful death cases may involve:

• Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
• Boating accidents
• Medical malpractice
• Workplace or construction accidents
• Defective products
• Dangerous property conditions

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?

In most cases, wrongful death claims are brought by surviving family members, such as:

• Spouses
• Children
• Parents
• Personal representatives of the estate

Because the law can be complex and deadlines apply, it’s important to speak with an experienced attorney as soon as possible.

Compensation in a Wrongful Death Case

Depending on the circumstances, compensation may be available for:

• Funeral and burial expenses
• Medical costs related to the final injury or illness
• Loss of financial support and benefits
• Loss of companionship, care, and guidance
• Pain and suffering experienced by surviving family members

Our goal is to pursue full and fair compensation while honoring your loved one’s memory.
