Wrongful death is a legal term that describes a death caused by another party's negligence or intentional act. It's not merely a tragic incident-it's a breach of the safety and trust we expect from individuals, corporations, and medical professionals. Whether it's an irresponsible driver, a faulty product, or a medical error, proving that the death was indeed wrongful hinges on establishing certain key elements.

These elements include the duty of care that the defendant owed to the deceased, a breach of that duty, causation linking the defendant's actions to the death, and damages resulting from the loss. Negligent actions can take many forms and it's our mission to uncover the negligence that led to your family's loss.

Investigation plays a pivotal role in proving wrongful death claims. Gathering evidence is time-sensitive and demands prompt attention. Our team takes great care in piecing together the events leading to the death.

Proving wrongful death goes beyond showing that an incident occurred-it involves establishing that the incident led directly to your loved one's untimely passing. This is more complex than you might expect. There are statutes, legal precedents, and specific state laws that must be adhered to in these cases. At Law Assist Now, we don't just understand these complexities; we master them to build a strong case tailored to your unique circumstances.

In the realm of wrongful death claims, time is of the essence. There's a legal time frame during which families can file a lawsuit, known as the statute of limitations. It varies from state to state, but the clock typically starts ticking from the date of the deceased's death. Missing this window can bar you from ever bringing a claim forward, no matter how valid it may be.

Our trusted team of experts at Law Assist Now is well-versed in these timelines and can help ensure your case is filed promptly. We're committed to acting swiftly on your behalf, so you can focus on the healing process without the added stress of legal deadlines looming over you.

After proving that a wrongful death occurred, the court will consider compensation for the damages suffered by the survivors. These damages can include a variety of expenses and emotional losses, such as:

  • Medical and funeral costs
  • Lost wages and support the deceased would have provided
  • Loss of companionship and care
  • Pain and suffering of the deceased before death
  • Punitive damages intended to punish the wrongdoer

Each case is unique, and we at Law Assist Now dedicate ourselves to ensuring that you receive a fair assessment of damages. We strive to include every facet of your loss to bring about the most just compensation possible.

In wrongful death lawsuits, it's not uncommon for the defense to argue that the deceased was responsible for their own death. It's a challenging accusation to face, but one that we're fully equipped to handle. Our team is adept at refuting such claims, often using expert testimonies and evidence that underlines the true cause of the death.

We won't allow these defenses to overshadow the truth. With us, families have the peace of mind that we will fight tenaciously for their loved one's honor and their right to recompense. We stand resolute, countering any defense tactically and with the weight of evidence on our side.

Direct evidence like eyewitness testimony is powerful in wrongful death cases, but circumstantial evidence can also play a pivotal role. These are the nuanced clues that, when pieced together, form a compelling narrative of the events that led to your loved one's passing. At Law Assist Now, we are seasoned in the art of crafting a case that includes both direct and circumstantial evidence to tell the full story.

Our discerning legal team knows exactly how to compile and present circumstantial evidence in a way that's both compelling and credible.
