Wrongful Death Lawyers

It is never easy losing a loved one. When you lose a loved one due to someone else’s negligence or wrongful act, it can be a very difficult and traumatic experience. You may also be left dealing with medical bills, funeral expenses, and administering your loved one’s estate.

A situation is deemed a wrongful death when someone dies due to a wrongful act or negligence of another. Wrongful death actions are filed on behalf of a decedent’s loved ones. The family members seek compensation for their personal losses due to a loved one’s death. This is different than a survival action where the decedent’s estate files an action to recover what the decedent would be entitled to if he or she survived his or her injuries.
