What is Wrongful Death?

Fatal workplace accidents often occur at construction sites, but could also occur at many more workplaces such as oil and gas wells, amusement parks, restaurants, warehouses and schools.

Wrongful death is considered the loss of life due to someone else’s negligence or illegal conduct. Wrongful death may occur due to a workplace forklift accident, fall from a scaffolding or an electrocution.

When these situations occur, insurance companies will often provide compensation to surviving dependents of the decedent. Unfortunately, these companies and corporations are sometimes uncooperative. Even if your case seems clear-cut, some people and companies will try to deny any wrongdoing.

Wherever the accident took place, we can carefully review the details of your claim and design a legal strategy that best suits your family’s needs.

Who Can File A Wrongful Death Claim?

The laws governing who can file a wrongful death claim vary from state to state. If you’re unsure whether or not you have a case, our lawyers can help.

Wrongful Death Damages

Damages available to victims of a wrongful death include monetary and non-monetary damages for pain and suffering, medical or burial expenses, and more.

Causes of Wrongful Death

The causes of wrongful death cover a wide range; the most important issue though is that someone else’s careless actions resulted in another individuals death.
