What is “wrongful death”?
As the name implies, a wrongful death occurs when someone takes the life of another without cause. When a death occurs because of the negligence – wrongful conduct – of another, that can lead to a wrongful death lawsuit.
In order to determine whether your family has a wrongful death claim after a loved one’s death, it is important to gather all the facts you can. Then contact a lawyer who handles wrongful death cases.
Finding the right lawyer is very important. While many lawyers claim to handle wrongful death cases, many do not. Often they will refer the client to another lawyer (or even another law firm) to actually handle the case. At Dixon Law Office, our staff personally handles all of our cases, 100% of them. We are in court nearly every day, always representing the rights of the families in cases, many of them for wrongful death.
