Wrongful Death

Wrongful death occurs when a person dies as a result of someone else's negligence, whether in a car accident, during a surgical procedure, or because of a defective product or drug. At The Justice Firm, we work vigorously on behalf of a victim's surviving family members, striving to secure the full damages you deserve for your loss. No amount of money in the world will replace the love and companionship of a loved one, however compensation can help your family avoid financial issues resulting from negligence. Our Los Angeles wrongful death attorneys work to collect medical costs, funeral and burial costs, lost income, loss of companionship, and other damages grieving families deserve.

We understand how difficult it is to carry on with life when someone who was an integral part of your life is gone forever. In many cases, these types of losses are senseless, and could have been avoided. Some of the products and circumstances which may result in wrongful death include:

• Defective children's products
• Defective household appliances and consumer electronics
• Design defects
• Recalled or defective medical devices
• Defective tires, airbags, or other automobile components
• Failure to warn
• Manufacturing defects
• Seat belt failure
• Defective equipment used in construction or industrial settings
• Auto accident caused by drunk driver
• Surgical error

If you have lost a loved one due to negligence, we urge you to contact our Orange County wrongful death lawyers now.

Our extensive experience in this area of practice has enlightened us regarding insurance companies, and how they will use every tactic in their arsenals to deny or limit claims. While you might expect that the negligent person or party would offer to pay you the damages you deserve, it does not usually work this way. Whether through negotiations with the insurance company or litigation, we will fight aggressively to ensure your family recovers the full damages you deserve for the devastation you have experienced and financial costs.

You may be surprised to learn that in the United States, accidents are responsible for more deaths than illness or any other factor. In fact, one person will die every five minutes in the U.S. because of careless or negligent people/manufacturing processes, products, etc. Examples of these incidents include auto accidents, food poisoning, fires, slip and fall accidents, smoke inhalation, even choking on food. Losing a loved one in an unnatural way is often far more devastating for families than if the loved one had died of natural causes. The shock of something so unexpected can be overwhelming. We work vigorously to help your family during what is absolutely one of the most sad and delicate periods of your life.

At a time when you are sad, shocked, and likely depressed, fighting for financial compensation is probably the last thing on your mind. However, it is vital that you consider the future of your family, and how the costs of your loved one's death may affect the future. We urge you to contact a Los Angeles wrongful death attorney at The Justice Firm today, so that we can handle the legal battle for you and help ease your burden. Contact us now at 310-914-2444.
