What Is a wrongful death claim?

A wrongful death is a death resulting from another person’s negligent, reckless, or intentional conduct. The victim’s surviving spouse, children, beneficiaries, or dependents can file a wrongful death insurance claim or civil lawsuit to seek financial compensation for the loss of their loved one.

Wrongful death law is complicated. You must also act quickly to meet the relevant deadlines and prevent evidence or witnesses from disappearing. A wrongful death attorney from our Speaks Law team can prepare all necessary paperwork, ensure that you file your claim on time, and support you at every step in this difficult period.
