I met with Harry Brown personally and he sat with me for 20 minutes at our initial consultation to explain everything. He even called after my surgery to see how I was doing. I met with him several more times after that and was kept informed about my case throughout. I highly recommend Harry Brown as an attorney.

Hearing that a close friend or family member died or was critically injured in a car accident is many people’s worst nightmare. A loved one’s death in an accident can leave a family with both financial and emotional difficulties. 

A person injured in a car accident caused by another driver’s negligence has the legal right to file a personal injury claim and seek compensation from the negligent driver. They are entitled to seek compensation for any direct expenses incurred as a result of the accident.

If an accident victim dies as a result of their injuries, the surviving family members may file a wrongful death lawsuit against the at-fault driver. The family of the deceased will be able to seek justice for their loved one.

The family can file a wrongful death lawsuit to seek financial compensation for funeral expenses and emotional distress caused by their loved one’s untimely death.

When a family member dies as a result of someone else’s negligence, the last thing on your mind is probably settling an insurance claim or filing a wrongful death lawsuit. However, because the statute of limitations severely limits the amount of time you have to file a wrongful death claim, it’s always best to act quickly.

A Wrongful Death Lawyer will make certain that you receive the following:

  • Funeral and Burial Expenses
  • Medical Expenses
  • Lost Wages
  • Loss of Future Income
  • Loss of Consortium
  • Emotional Trauma

If a family member was killed in a car accident, you should contact a Wrongful Death Lawyer right away. Without the assistance of an experienced attorney, obtaining the compensation you are owed can be difficult.
