Losing a loved one can be one of the most challenging situations you will ever face. Suddenly, losing a close family member in a preventable accident can add another layer of grief and anger to the situation.
When someone else is careless or reckless and causes death, families often experience significant emotional, financial, and practical losses. The death itself is only one aspect of the long-term effects a family can feel. The law recognizes the need for justice and financial support for those who experience an avoidable and wrongful death.
TopDog Law helps families recover compensation and seek justice from negligent or wrongful parties after a tragic loss. Reach out today to speak with a Detroit wrongful death lawyer about a potential case and your best options.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
TopDog Law has witnessed firsthand the devastation families feel from a sudden loss. We will work diligently to hold negligent parties responsible for their actions or inactions leading to your loved one’s death.
You can focus on emotional healing while our team of Detroit personal injury lawyers takes over and investigates the incident to determine your rights. If someone else should be liable, we determine how much your family deserves for all you have been through.
Getting to know you and your family can help us establish the foundation for your wrongful death claim. We can show the insurance company how the deceased contributed to the household and what their death means to your family.
We consider every possible loss, from financial support of the deceased to emotional devastation and the loss of household services.
TopDog Law can assist in many ways during this difficult time, including:Â
If you do not know where to turn after a horrible loss, look no further than our Detroit wrongful death attorneys at TopDog Law.
You might not think that wrongful death cases happen often, but they are too common across the U.S. According to the CDC, there are almost 201,000 unintentional deaths across the country each year. They report that intentional acts of violence account for over 24,000 deaths annually.
Additionally:
We do not view your family as a statistic. We know the effects of wrongful death are very real, and we fight for the financial recovery you deserve.
When you work with a wrongful death attorney in Detroit, we will identify and calculate the losses you can pursue from the negligent party, which include both economic and non-economic damages.
You can seek damages for losses such as:
You might feel some of these losses for years. Money cannot change that.Â
However, the law provides compensation to give surviving families legal relief for wrongful death. They understand that a person contributes to their family in more ways than monetarily. TopDog Law will provide relief and information on these and other damages that can apply to your case.
At its core, the definition of wrongful death is someone passing away because of the negligent, wrongful, or criminal actions of another person. Under personal injury law, families have the right to pursue damages the same as if the deceased had survived the accident and qualified for a personal injury claim.
Many circumstances qualify as wrongful death, such as:
Upon learning of your loved one’s death, hire a personal injury attorney in Detroit as soon as possible. The law gives you a limited time to take legal action, and beginning the process sooner can help to preserve key evidence.
Specific family members have the ability to pursue damages, including:
Sometimes, relatives such as grandparents, grandchildren, aunts, and uncles can seek compensation.
Once we review your circumstances, we can determine who is eligible for compensation and pursue justice for you.
Following a preventable death in the family, you can have many concerns. You may be making funeral arrangements and adjusting to your new life without your loved one. Starting the legal process might feel overwhelming, but know you do not have to handle it alone.
