When it comes to handling wrongful death cases in Texas, the attorneys in TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers’ network have the experience, knowledge, and dedication needed to fight for your rights. Founded by James Helm, a former athlete turned legal advocate, TopDog Law connects injured parties with highly qualified attorneys throughout Texas and across the nation. The attorneys we work with go above and beyond for their clients.
James Helm’s own story of overcoming personal struggles has given him a unique perspective on the challenges wrongful death clients face. He brings that same competitive spirit from his sports background to ensure that those who suffered a loss due to someone else’s negligence receive the best possible representation.
No amount of money can ever replace the loss of a loved one, but pursuing a wrongful death claim can help ease the financial burden and provide a sense of justice.
In Texas, the types of damages that may be available in a wrongful death case include:
One of the most immediate and pressing concerns after losing a loved one is the cost of medical treatment and funeral expenses. In a wrongful death case, you may recover compensation for all medical expenses related to your loved one’s final injury or illness, including emergency care, hospitalization, surgeries, medications, and more.
Additionally, you can seek reimbursement for substantial funeral and burial costs. Your wrongful death lawyer will gather and document all relevant expenses to ensure that you recover full compensation.
When a loved one dies, the family loses not only their companionship and support but also their financial contributions.
In a wrongful death case, you may recover compensation for your loved one’s lost income and benefits, including:
The attorneys in TopDog Law’s legal network will work with economic experts to calculate the full extent of your loved one’s lost income and benefits, ensuring that your family’s financial future is protected.
The loss of a loved one is about more than just financial losses – it’s about the irreplaceable hole left in your life. In a wrongful death case, you may recover compensation for the loss of your loved one’s companionship, care, and support.
This includes the loss of:
While no amount of money can ever replace your loved one’s presence in your life, seeking compensation for these intangible losses can help provide a sense of justice and acknowledgment of your pain.
Losing a loved one is an emotionally devastating experience that can have long-lasting effects on your mental health.
In a wrongful death case, you may recover compensation for the mental anguish and emotional suffering you’ve endured, including:
TopDog’s legal partners understand the profound emotional impact of losing a loved one. We can connect you with an attorney who will fight to ensure that your pain and suffering are recognized and compensated.
In some cases, the negligence or wrongdoing that caused your loved one’s death may warrant punitive damages to punish the at-fault party and deter others from engaging in similar behavior.
Texas allows punitive damages in cases involving:
If particularly reckless or intentional conduct caused your loved one’s death, an attorney from TopDog’s network will fight to hold the responsible parties fully accountable and seek the maximum possible compensation, including punitive damages.
In many wrongful death cases, the at-fault party’s insurance company will be involved in the claims process. Insurance companies are notorious for prioritizing their own profits over the needs of grieving families. They will often go to great lengths to minimize or deny valid claims.
Battling an insurance company on your own can be incredibly challenging, especially when you’re already dealing with the emotional aftermath of losing a loved one.
The personal injury lawyers we work with have the skills and experience needed to stand up to insurance companies and fight for the full compensation you deserve. They won’t back down until justice is served
