Bringing a Wrongful Death Claim: Don’t Handle it Alone

Have you lost a loved one in an accident due to the negligence of another party? Nobody ever expects to lose a loved one in an accident, which is why it makes sense to have somebody on your side who can help you fight for your rights in every way. One of the biggest mistakes that somebody can ever make in a wrongful death claim is to try to attempt to handle the case alone. There are just too many factors for you to handle on your own when you are trying to grieve after losing somebody close to you. This is why we want to stand by your side and help you protect your rights every step of the way.

Why You Should Have an Attorney

wrongful death lawyerHere is one of the biggest reasons why you should never stand alone when you are dealing with a wrongful death claim: The insurance companies could try to give you less when it comes to your case. Let’s say that somebody was driving distracted and ran into the side of your loved one’s vehicle. They were clearly at-fault for the accident, so you were able to bring a claim against them. Even though it is only fair that you and your family are compensated for wrongful death damages, it does not always occur this way. Insurance companies will sometimes make extremely low offers so that they can settle your claim once and for all, even if it wasn’t what you were expecting.

Perhaps you are willing to accept any type of settlement because you need immediate relief on a financial level due to medical expenses that occurred before your loved one passed away, or because of funeral expenses. You never want to accept early, because you know that it could put you and your family in a bad position later on down the road.

When you want to achieve the fairest settlement offer, you want to have an attorney on your side as you move forward. There are many losses that you might have to deal with, such as benefits to surviving spouses and children, loss of love and companionship damages, financial assistance, lost earnings of the past and future, and so much more. Attorneys are able to investigate to pin a number to the case and assets that are available to pay compensation to survivors, the amount of insurance coverage and what it allows, noneconomic losses, and more. Insurers will not always willingly disclose information that is important to your case. Luckily, an attorney can help you get the information you deserve in your time of need.

Moving Forward With Your Claim

If you are a representative of your loved one’s estate, a child, spouse, parent, or many other people close to the person who lost their life, you may want to move forward with a wrongful death claim. There are many damages available to you and your family during this time. It may seem impossible to pin a number amount to your loved one’s passing, but it is not impossible and we want to talk to you every step of the way. At the Nye Law Group, we have experience in wrongful death claims and want to extend a helping hand to you. Call us for more information on how we can help you from start to finish at 855-636-9277.
