Wrongful Death & Fatal Accidents

When someone dies as a result of another person or entity’s negligence, carelessness, or recklessness (intentional or unintentional), a wrongful death claim may be filed. Whether the death occurs because of an automobile accident, workplace injury, or instance of nursing home neglect or medical malpractice, a claim for compensation may be a proper response of family members.

In most wrongful death cases, some family members and the estate are able to claim for damages for the decedent’s lost wages, pain and suffering prior to death, and the expenses of medical treatment and a funeral. Certain family survivors may file for individual compensation as well, claiming loss of the relationship and emotional distress.

If you have lost a loved one due to another’s negligence, Murphy & Associates will consult with you for free regarding your case. We are experienced and well-prepared to seek your fair and just settlement and compensation.
