We Will Go To Trial To Hold Negligent Parties Accountable
As trial lawyers, we prepare all of our cases, including wrongful death cases, as if they will go to trial. This is not a ploy — many of our wrongful death cases have proceeded to trial. When insurance companies understand that an opposing lawyer has the resources, knowledge, and willingness to try a case, they are more likely to offer a reasonable settlement. However, when the amount offered is not adequate compensation for our clients' losses, we are prepared to take the case to a judge or jury, where we have had considerable success getting the needed compensation.
Building A Strong Case To Help You Get The Compensation You Deserve
Our law firm consults with experts who allow us to build a strong case for compensation. Economic specialists calculate the financial impact of the death on the family. They estimate the value of a spouse's non-economic contribution to the home. When a surviving family member needs to hire someone to undertake childcare, grocery shopping, gardening, and all the other daily chores involved in running a house, they need to be compensated for the cost of these services. The economic and emotional costs of a wrongful death cannot be accurately calculated.
However, our law firm uses the resources available to us to determine how much it will cost to fill the hole left behind after a wrongful death.
