San Jose Wrongful Death Attorney

Have you lost a loved one to negligence?

It is difficult to imagine a loss worse than the death of a child, parent, spouse or sibling. Making the loss worse is the knowledge that is was caused by the careless and thoughtless actions of another. Wrongful deaths may be caused by automobile, motorcycle and truck accidents. They may also result from medical malpractice or nursing home elder abuse.  Sometimes a family member dies while an insurance company dithers about authorizing life-saving surgery. In this instance the insurance company may be actionable for wrongful death.

Damages in Wrongful Death Claims

While no one can bring the loved one back to life, the loss can be made easier by obtaining a wrongful death award to compensate for financial losses and to hold accountable the culprit responsible for the harm that has been caused. If a family member of yours has died due to another's wrongdoing, you must contact an experienced personal injury lawyer at The Dunnion law Firm now to pursue a wrongful death claim on your behalf.

Damages for wrongful death may include medical expenses related to death and funeral and burial costs. Where a family provider has died, his lost income both present and future and his medical benefits may be included as compensation. Loss of the comfort, love and care of the decedent are a major component of any settlement. In the case of especially serious wrongdoing, punitive damages to punish the wrongdoer are appropriate and should be pursued.
