How Long Will My Case Take?

There is no way to give an exact timeline for how long an injury case will take since it varies in each situation. A large factor in determining how long it will take is whether or not a settlement will be reached or if the case needs to be taken to court. There is no timetable for injury claims and lawsuits. It can be a matter of months or for more challenging situations it can last years. Having an attorney can help streamline the process and seek a resolution in a more timely manner.

What is Wrongful Death?

Wrongful death is when an innocent person loses their life in an accident caused by someone else. A wrongful death claim is a claim that is filed by the victim's surviving family members and / or dependents in order to obtain compensation for all financial and emotional damages that result from their loved one's wrongful death.

When Should I File My Case?

As soon as possible is best. It can be a time-consuming process so you want to get started now. There is also a Statute of limitations for how long you have to be able to seek compensation. Waiting too long may cause you to lose your right to compensation.

Wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the accident or accident-related death, according to the statute of limitations for wrongful death. Any claims that are filed after this limit will not be valid and will not result in compensation.

What Damages can I Recover in a Claim?

These are only some of the most common personal injury damages for which you could receive compensation. Speak with an attorney to learn what damages are able to be recovered for your specific case.

How is Economic Value Determined for Non-Economic Damages?

As seen above, many damages resulting from wrongful death are not economic in nature. In order to determine the amount of compensation for these damages, the court will examine the extent of the family's loss and suffering and will come up with a monetary amount that is considered to be adequate compensation. This is where a skilled attorney becomes necessary, since they play a part in helping the court realize how serious the damages are and how they need extensive compensation.
