What is Wrongful Death and do I need a Lawyer
If a loved one dies due to the negligence or miscounduct of another then you may be entitled to bring an action for wrongful death.
An action for wrongful death lies with the heirs of the deceased. Actions for personal injury, conscious pain and suffering, or expenses incurred prior to the decedent’s death can be brought by the personal representative of the deceased.
A wrongful death claim may arise out of a number of circumstances, such as in the following situations:
Medical malpractice which results in death; An Automobile accident; Exposure to a dangerous condition on the job; And many other situations in which someone’s negligence results in the death of another person.
Finding a competent attorney to handle a wrongful death claim can be a very difficult task. It is unfortunate that there are so many lawyers out there that will simply take your case without the experience necessary to adequately handle it. In some cases these same lawyers will act as a “rainmaker” or someone that brings clients in to the firm and signs them up. The major problem with this situation is that the attorney that has brought you into the firm and that you have met with is not the attorney that will be handling your case.
