Obtaining Fair Compensation for Families and Victims of Wrongful Death Since 1988
Wrongful death cases are a paradox for attorneys. The reason why is that no matter how skillfully you handle the case or how much compensation you are able to secure — nothing will ever truly make things right for the surviving spouse, parents or children of a wrongful death victim.
Still, you do what you can even though fair results will never be enough.
When someone dies because of the negligence of another individual or business — compensation for that wrongful death is about much more than a simple calculation of (income) x (years of life expectancy lost). We understand that and take a first-hand look and accounting of all the various ways in which you and your family have been affected.
Some of the things that need to be considered before making decisions as to how much compensation to seek include:
- How have the losses of companionship, consortium and support affected you mentally and emotionally?
- Beyond just the loss of income, how have, or will you and your family be affected financially?
- How old are the children and how will the loss of that parental guidance impact their lives?
In addition to seeking maximum compensation for losses like these, our attorneys make a strong case for punitive damages in fatal injury cases wherever reckless and grossly negligent actions were involved.
