Need help with a wrongful death matter?

If a family member or loved one has been killed through the actions of another individual or a business, a wrongful death attorney will represent your interests and those of the deceased. They will work with you to determine the facts of what occurred, whom to hold responsible, and whether compensation is due. Examples include people killed by drunk drivers or people killed in an accident at work. The laws around wrongful death are specific and cases must be filed within a certain time.
