Wrongful Death

The death of a loved one is a significant impact on one’s life. Even more significant is when that loved one is taken before his or her time due to the negligence or carelessness of another. One bad decision during a split-second moment can lead to a lifetime of hardship and suffering for the families of innocent victims. The loss of companionship, parental guidance and education is invaluable. The death of a loved one can also carry with it the loss of financial support and earning capacity, along with other fringe benefits such as healthcare and retirement income. Families are often left with significant financial hardship, including medical and funeral expenses for their loved one.

 

Wrongful death can occur as the result of any kind of accident, or as the result of someone’s intentional and criminal actions. Families left to bear the burden of financial hardship and the loss of life of their loved one are entitled to compensation for such loss. Money is awarded for any medical costs associated with the accident or incident, pain and suffering from the time of accident until the time of death, funeral expenses, past and future loss of income and earning capacity, the loss of companionship and the significant life changes, which result from the wrongful death.
