Wrongful Death Lawyer DeKalb County, GA
You have our sympathies for the loss of your loved one, and we understand your frustrations knowing that the accident could have been avoided. We’re committed to holding negligent parties accountable for the harm they caused, not just to your loved one but to your entire family. A civil claim, which is what a wrongful death suit typically is, is often the only way to hold an entity (such as a hospital or consumer products manufacturer) accountable and have their misdeeds made public.
We understand that considering filing a wrongful death action brings up a lot of mixed emotions, but if you choose to initiate a wrongful death suit, you have a limited window of time to act. Your family could be in financial straits now that they cannot contribute to the household. A settlement in a wrongful death claim can replenish the loss of income, including the loss of any contributions to a returneth account or pension, alleviating your financial burdens. You’re entitled to demand fair compensation for the material losses you suffer, as well as your pain and suffering and loss of companionship, consortium, and guidance. Our legal team is here to help you assert your rights and secure the means for you to move forward and achieve the dreams you and your loved one shared, like college for your children or a comfortable retirement.
