Am I Eligible for Compensation for My Wrongful Death Case?

Although no amount of money can ever hope to make up for the loss of a loved one, compensation and justice can help a family or individual regain financial stability and peace of mind.

Depending on your case, you may be eligible to receive compensation for some or all of the damages listed.

In a wrongful death case, types of damages can often include the following:

  • Loss of Future Wages
  • Loss of Benefits
  • Loss of Inheritance
  • Medical Bills
  • Funeral Expenses
  • Loss of Care & Protection
  • Loss of Love & Society
