If you have recently lost a loved one as a result of a preventable accident caused by another person’s reckless or negligent behavior, you may be entitled to recover compensation with the help of an Escondido wrongful death lawyer. It is important to take action immediately after you have suffered a loss.
Be aware that insurance companies take wrongful death cases very seriously, prompting them to initiate an investigation immediately. The insurance company often represents the negligent party who is being blamed for the wrongful death and will not always be on the lookout to preserve evidence specifically for you and your other loved ones. A proper investigation should be handled by an experienced Escondido wrongful death lawyer.
Proper investigation may involve engineering and scientific challenges, medical analysis, thorough investigation of the scene itself and other issues. It is important to retain experienced counsel sooner rather than later.
Wrongful death cases can be more complex than a traditional personal injury as the claim is intended to recover the loss of pain and suffering, future earnings for the individual who passed away, and other factors associated with an unjust or unfair loss of life. Wrongful death cases in California are different from other types of personal injury cases. In the majority of personal injury cases a victim of a negligent or wrongful act will bring a claim against a negligent party on their own.
In a wrongful death case, however, a victim has paid the price with his or her life and has passed away and this means that it’s up to the estate or the family to bring forward the claim for wrongful death. Appointing a personal representative raising an estate or protecting the rights of minors can be extremely complex and this should be handled by an experienced attorney immediately.
Wrongful death cases are managed by specific California laws that determine how a wrongful death case is pursued. In the event that the accident was caused by another person’s reckless behavior such as a car accident, truck accident, pedestrian accident or other vehicle accident, the surviving family members may be empowered to come forward with a claim for compensation.
In the wake of losing a loved one there are so many different things to think about that it can easily be overwhelming and frustrating for loved ones to determine their next steps. Many family members may not even be aware of the rights that they have and may find the entire process confusing.
If you have recently lost a loved one due to a preventable accident that you believe to have been caused by another person’s reckless behavior, it’s important to remember that you do have rights and that they should be protected by retaining an experienced and knowledgeable attorney. The attorney you work with should offer you a consultation in which he or she will explain the legal claims for your case and your options moving forward.
A knowledgeable lawyer will answer your questions during this initial consultation and give you an overview of how the case will proceed should you choose to move forward with a wrongful death claim. Although it is never easy to acknowledge that a loved one has been lost and that it was another person’s reckless actions or lack of action that caused this, you may be able to recover some compensation after consulting with an attorney and filing a wrongful death claim.
No claim or amount of compensation will ever fully repay you for what has happened to you. However, it can be an important way to ensure the financial future of the family by moving forward with a lawsuit.
A lawsuit can assist surviving family members to be able to replace the lost income from an individual who passed away. There may be immediate expenses that were paid for by the family such as funeral and burial expenses. Figuring out what to do after you have lost a loved one can seem complex if not impossible. Figuring out how to analyze the information and move forward with a wrongful death claim can be a significant burden to family members who have already gone through enough.
Thankfully, an Escondido wrongful death attorney can assist with this process and give some peace of mind and confidence to loved ones when they need it the most. You need to know where you stand and our law firm will work hard to earn your trust and represent your interests to the fullest.
