Do You Have a Wrongful Death Claim and Need Representation?
It is sad and difficult to console and advise clients when a loved one dies. We hope you will never need us for this. But if you do, it is what we do. A wrongful death claim is created by state law. In Missouri, there is a three-year time limit on the filing of a wrongful death lawsuit. There are constraints on who may file the claim and limits on the types of damages one can recover. In Illinois, there is a two-year time limit and different limits on what you can recover. A wrongful death can happen in a variety of circumstances. We have won wrongful death claims arising from vehicle accidents, dangerous products, and medical negligence. Wrongful death just describes the type of claim and identifies the liable party. How to prove liability and how to win the case is our expertise. We thoroughly investigate and work these lawsuits to obtain the maximum recovery for the children and families of the deceased. This type of claim can also be called negligent death claim, survival claim, accidental death claim, etc.
