What are common causes of wrongful death?
Wrongful deaths occur in all areas of life. Several common causes in the United States include defective products, incorrect warning labels, medical or nursing home negligence, unsafe construction zones, security carelessness, workplace catastrophes, and automobile accidents.
What will the court consider during my case?
There are a number of aspects of the deceased life that the court takes into consideration in order to give you an accurate amount of compensation.
