Why is a Newport Beach Wrongful Death Attorney Necessary?
Losing a loved one can be overwhelming. It can be difficult for families to successfully pursue a wrongful death case on their own. A Newport Beach personal injury lawyer experienced in wrongful death cases has the knowledge and experience necessary to move your case forward. They will:
- Conduct a thorough investigation of the incident by obtaining all evidence in the case.
- Work with medical professionals and economic experts to calculate your family’s total losses due to the wrongful death.
- Vigorously negotiate on your behalf with all parties involved to reach a fair settlement.
Wrongful Death Cases Are Tragic
Wrongful death cases arise when someone loses their life due to the negligent, careless, or intentional actions of someone else (individual, company, or entity). The team at Callahan & Blaine commonly handles wrongful death cases arising due to:
- Vehicle accidents (drunk driving, distracted driving, etc.)
- Commercial truck accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle or pedestrian accidents
- Workplace incidents
- Defective products
- Medical malpractice
Surviving family members who bring these cases have a limited amount of time to do so. Generally, there is a two-year statute of limitations for these cases. This means that the claim must be made within two years from the date of someone passing.
A wrongful death case is not just about compensation. It is about closure for the family. These cases also help ensure that negligent parties are held accountable for their actions.
