FAQ
Common Questions
Who can file a wrongful death claim?
It depends on the state. Usually a spouse, children or parents, or the estate's representative, can bring the claim. We'll explain who can file where your loved one passed.
How long do we have to file?
Deadlines vary by state and can be as short as one year, and claims involving government vehicles or property can require notice much sooner. Please call soon so no deadline is missed.
What does it cost?
Nothing upfront. There is no attorney's fee unless we recover for your family. Families may still be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Do we have to go to court?
Many wrongful death claims are resolved with the insurance company. If yours needs to go to trial, we bring in experienced trial co-counsel with your written consent.
