Hialeah Wrongful Death Lawyers
You recently and tragically lost a loved one in the Hialeah area; and, to make things worse, you strongly believe that another person or institution caused or contributed to the circumstances of the death. You are in the midst of grieving, but you also know how important it is to lay the ground work to potentially take legal action to get compensation for things like medical expenses, burial costs, wages lost, pain and suffering, and so forth.
Honestly, even though the thought of seeking legal action may leave you feeling overwhelmed, it is probably a good idea to take a deep breath and investigate your options - if for no other reason than to clarify your next steps and be able to take your mind off of this topic.
Common Causes of Wrongful Death Accidents
- Auto or truck accident - a careless or negligent driver (e.g. someone chatting on the cell phone or texting) got into a collision with your loved one, and the injuries resulted in complications that led to death.
- Medical malpractice - a surgeon during standard procedure failed to stitch up a wound properly; as a result, it got infected and led to death.
- Nursing home neglect - a nursing home staff member neglected to turn over your loved one after he or she was recuperating from surgery; as a result, he or she developed bed sores, which got infected, which led to a full body infection that ultimately caused his or her death.
- Accident at work - your spouse got seriously hurt at work as a result of defective safety procedures or a malfunctioning piece of equipment, and this led to a fatal injury.
Who You Could Potentially Hold Liable
- The institution or a person directly responsible for the fatal accident/illness. In the above examples, it would be the driver who caused the accident, the surgeon who failed to do due diligence, the nursing home that neglected care, and the construction company that failed to provide adequate safety equipment.
- People or companies indirectly responsible.
- Insurance companies of any of the liable parties.
