Wilkes-Barre Wrongful Death Attorney
Financial restitution for the loss of a loved one
Losing a family member under any circumstances is tragic. Losing a loved one because of someone else's negligence is even harder to accept. A wrongful death is defined as a death that results from the willful or negligent act of another person.
If you have lost a family member in this manner, we can help you pursue the financial compensation you are entitled to. While no amount of money can make up for the death of someone you love, it can ease the financial burden left in your loved one's absence. We help you face the reality of your financial situation and assist you in getting what you need from those responsible for your loss. In a wrongful death, you have the right to file a claim for compensation for:
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of companionship
- Burial and funeral expenses
- Present and future financial losses
- Out-of-pocket expenses incurred
- Medical expenses
- Loss of earnings of the decedent
Dedicated to our clients
I take as much time as necessary to talk to you about the circumstances surrounding the decedent's death. I go over everything that happened leading up to, during and immediately after the incident. Once I have compiled all of the information, gathered all pertinent documents, taken all witness statements and gone over all the evidence, I build your case and file the lawsuit on your behalf.
If I can settle your case satisfactorily through negotiation, I do. However, if things do not go your way in the negotiations, I am always ready to go to court. With several trials under my belt, I am a seasoned litigator. While tough in court, I am always sympathetic, compassionate and understanding towards our clients. It is my job to help you understand how Pennsylvania law applies to your situation and give you options to pursue the best possible outcome. We understand that money won't ease your pain, but it can hold the responsible party accountable and solve your financial difficulties.
