Wrongful Deaths
A family's worst nightmare is the loss of a family member following an accident. When this occurs there are resources available to your family and loved ones. These benefits include funeral expenses, grief counseling, compensation for loss of financial support and for the loss of guidance, care and companionship of the family member.
When a loved one is killed as a result of another's negligence, often surviving family members may have mixed feelings about making a monetary claim for the death. Certainly no amount of money can replace the departed loved one. However, a monetary award is the only way our system of law can recognize the value of the deceased's life and compensate for the death.
Damages for wrongful death can include both economic damages (projected lifetime income) and the loss of care, guidance and companionship.
