Investigating the Cause of Death
The first step in any wrongful death claim is a thorough investigation of the circumstances surrounding the death. We gather evidence, interview witnesses, and consult with experts to determine the exact cause of death and who is responsible. This crucial stage sets the foundation for the entire case.
- Conduct In-depth Investigations: We delve into accident reports, medical records, and other relevant documents to identify any potential negligence or wrongdoing.
- Engage Experts: When necessary, we work with specialists, such as accident reconstructionists or medical experts, to strengthen your case.
Building Your Case for Compensation
Once the cause of death has been established, we focus on building a strong case to seek compensation for the surviving family members. This involves gathering evidence of financial losses, emotional damages, and the impact of the death on the family’s life.
- Document Economic Losses: We calculate lost income, funeral costs, and medical bills related to the death, ensuring that all financial damages are accounted for.
- Evaluate Non-Economic Damages: In addition to economic damages, we pursue compensation for pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and emotional distress.
Negotiating with Insurance Companies
Dealing with insurance companies can be one of the most challenging aspects of a wrongful death case. Insurers often try to settle quickly for less than you deserve. We are skilled negotiators who ensure that insurance companies don’t take advantage of your situation.
