Have you lost a loved one in an Orange County fatal accident due to someone else’s negligence? What is a “wrongful death” and how can the family hold the parties responsible financially accountable for what has happened?
My name is Rivers Morrell, and after more than 40 years of experience in these cases I can tell you wrongful death cases are quite legally complex and require extensive legal skill an expertise. The surviving family members of a wrongful death victim are entitled to compensation for the loss of “consortium” such as spending time with a spouse and losing the intimate connections you shared with your partner. A wrongful death lawsuit seeks to recover the lost wages the victim would have earned in the future to help the family financially as well as compensation for any suffering the victim was forced to endure after the accident and prior to passing away, final expenses and other fair and just compensation associated with your loss.
There may be multiple parties who are legally responsible and financially accountable for your family’s loss. For example, if your loved one was involved in an accident with a drunk driver who was coming home from a work-related function the insurance companies representing both the employer and the drunk driver would be legally responsible and financially accountable for what has happened.
