Who Can File a Concord Wrongful Death Claim or Lawsuit?

Seeking compensation after a loved one passes away due to someone else’s actions or negligence will typically involve the following steps:

  • Investigating the circumstances of a death to identify the liable parties
  • Filing a claim with the insurance of the liable parties responsible for a passing
  • Filing a lawsuit if the liable parties are uninsured or if an insurance company won’t offer a fair settlement

The personal representative of the decedent may file a claim or lawsuit in these circumstances. The decedent may have officially named a personal representative in their will. If they passed away without a will, the state will appoint a personal representative.

Various individuals might be able to recover financial compensation after a loved one’s untimely passing. They might include surviving spouses, children, and parents. A team member at our Concord wrongful death law firm will discuss this topic with you in greater detail if you’re not sure whether you have grounds to pursue compensation.

How a Concord Wrongful Death Lawyer Helps

Losing a loved one because someone else was careless will cause you to endure more than just grief. This tragedy can significantly impact your life in many ways for years to come.

For example, perhaps your spouse died. If they were your family’s primary breadwinner, you must now adapt to life without their income.

The decedent’s surviving loved ones can also struggle with non-economic losses like loss of guidance and mentorship. These losses might not have objective dollar values, but that doesn’t mean compensation for such losses is unavailable.

A qualified Concord wrongful death attorney will carefully review all your significant losses to determine how much compensation you might be eligible to recover when filing a claim on your behalf. Although a lawyer can’t promise you’ll settle for a specific amount, we can promise to negotiate with the insurance company if their initial offers are unreasonably low.

We can also help by:

  • Thoroughly investigating your case to prove your loved one passed as a result of negligence
  • Allowing you to focus on your emotional needs while we handle all correspondence with the insurance company
  • Keeping you updated about your case’s progress

Losing a loved one because someone else was negligent is an immensely painful experience.
