WRONGFUL DEATH
When you lose a close relative, you don't know what to do - especially if that loss was caused by the negligence of someone else . . .
As the dependent or child of a person killed in a tragedy, or as the parent of a child killed in a tragedy, you may be entitled to compensation for your loss. If your loved one experienced pain or suffering prior to death, that suffering may also be compensable to the loved one through his or her estate, then passing to his or her beneficiaries. Similarly, you may be independently entitled to benefits from the loss of a loved one for the future or estimated value of the loss of services and companionship they would have provided. Finally, you may be entitled to the future economic damages calculated by the expected value of your loved one’s economic contribution to the family.
We have relationships with certified accident reconstructionists, forensic experts and others in order to prepare your case for trial.
We will also handle the administration of your loved one’s estate through the Surrogate's Office, a necessary first step in the processing of these types of claims. We know the ins and outs of the probate system, and we will expedite the distribution and allocation of any wrongful death and survivorship proceeds by making application to the Court and the Surrogate's Office. If the survivors are minors, we will petition the Court to appoint a Guardian ad Litem, who will oversee the administration and distribution of the proceeds of any settlement or judgment.
In any event, you need the assistance of an expert in a wrongful death situation.
Please contact us by using the form above or another method listed on our contact
page, and we'll meet with you today. There is no charge for the consultation.
We are ready to help you from the moment you retain our services. Let us do
the thinking for you, so you can grieve and take care of your family. We'll
do the rest.
