Wrongful Death Attorney In Missouri & Arizona

While no amount of money can truly compensate for the loss of a loved one, holding the individual or entity responsible for their passing can bring a measure of solace to those who grieve. Pursuing justice in this way may also result in financial remuneration to cover any expenses incurred due to your loss.  If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence or intentional actions of another, it is important to understand your legal rights and options.

When someone's death is caused by the actions, inaction, or recklessness of another individual or entity, it is known as wrongful death. This can occur in various situations such as car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, product defects, and more. In these cases, the surviving family members may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim.

Filing a wrongful death claim allows the surviving family members to hold the responsible party accountable for their actions. It also provides an avenue for seeking financial compensation for damages such as medical expenses, funeral costs, lost wages and benefits, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship.

The statute of limitations for filing a wrongful death claim varies by state, so it is important to seek legal counsel as soon as possible. In addition, the laws surrounding wrongful death cases can be complex and may require expert testimony and evidence to prove negligence or liability.

In the event that you choose to pursue a wrongful death claim, Andres G. Hernandez, a devoted personal injury law attorney in Missouri and Arizona will guide you compassionately through every stage of the process. Reach out to him today to book your consultation.
