When you go through the tragedy of an unexpected or wrongful death of someone you love, picking up the pieces can be a very traumatic and emotional experience. Along with facing the tragic loss of a loved one, you are left with a tremendous financial burden and the difficulties of legal procedures.
Wrongful Death Cases
In times of grief, family members are often unable to appreciate the importance of a prompt investigation of the circumstances of the passing, as well as the preservation of evidence. These matters are extremely important in determining how and why the wrongful death incident occurred as well as identifying the persons legally responsible for the incident.
Some types of cases which often call for an attorney include:
- Drownings (swimming, water sports, boating incidents)
- Incident occurring during a supervised activity (field trip, sports tournament, etc.)
- Assisted living and nursing home neglect or abuse resulting in death.
- Workplace accidents (hazardous conditions, exposure to asbestos, etc.)
