Wrongful Death

There is no greater loss in this life than that of a loved one. What we do in wrongful death cases is present the meaning of the loss to the insurance company by way of a claim or lawsuit. Wrongful death cases have two separate types of claims. The first is the claim based upon the loss of the surviving members of the decedent's family. Spouses, parents, and children. No amount of money can ever compensate the decedent's loved ones the tragic loss suffered. In this difficult time, we take extra care to be sensitive to the needs of the family members. When minor children are surviving members of the decendent's family, special petitions need to be made to the probate court to ensure that the minor's needs are met. This is done with court oversight until the child becomes an adult. The second is the claim of the estate of the decedent which may include lost wages, loss of inheritance, and pain and suffering of the decendent. If you have lost a love one and you believe that the death was wrongfully caused by another, you need to consult with an attorney.
