Wrongful Death Attorney

The unexpected loss of a loved one is a tragedy that no family should have to face. Knowing that the death was a result of something that could and should have been avoidable makes your grief that much worse. No amount of money can relieve the pain and sorrow of your loss, but pursuing a wrongful death case may provide you with a sense of justice. The monetary compensation may also be useful for easing any financial burden this situation has placed on your family, such as from medical bills or burial expenses.

The law defines wrongful death as a loss of life caused by another party's negligence or reckless act. Common wrongful death cases include automotive accidents, construction accidents, product liability, animal attacks, medical malpractice, and nursing home abuse. A wrongful death attorney will seek to recover compensation for damages suffered by the decedent's beneficiaries from those responsible for their death. It is necessary to prove that the defending party acted recklessly or negligently and that this action contributed to or directly resulted in the loss of life. The experienced legal team at JW Anderson Law Firm PLLC will work with you to establish all the essential components of building a strong case to win your claim.

In the state of Texas, a wrongful death claim must be filed within two years of the death. It is important to know that only the deceased personal representative has the legal right to begin a claim. When you are interested in starting a case, gather any details you can about the death from the attending doctors and police. Also, consider all the various damages that the death may have brought about, whether financial, emotional, or otherwise. This information helps determine how much your claim could be worth. We always hope to achieve the best results for our clients.
