Los Angeles and Orange County Wrongful Death Attorneys
Personal Injury Lawyers in Orange County and Los Angeles
Wrongful death is the gravest of all personal injury suits. When our attorneys take on a wrongful death claim, we conduct a thorough investigation of all factors and events leading to the death and make sure that we do our best to represent and communicate your side of the story so the judge and jury understand what you’re going through.
The death of a friend or family member is not something one can easily get over. Regardless of all the financial burdens involved, the emotional and psychological side effects are everlasting. What can you do if you have lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing? First, you can make sure that person pays for his or her actions and take a step toward making sure it does not happen again.
When bringing a wrongful death claim to court, it is our burden as your attorney to prove a “preponderance of guilt” of the defendant. This is basically proving that the death was more than half due to the fault of the defendant. Because we have this responsibility instead of a criminal case responsibility of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, our lawyers may have success even with cases that don’t have extensive clear cut evidence proving the defendant’s guilt.
Wrongful Death Claims in Los Angeles and Orange County
Wrongful death can come about by an unlimited number of causes. One of the leading causes is auto accidents, due to California’s high number of motor vehicle accidents in general. Airplane accidents, premises liability accidents, medical malpractice, and faulty or defective products can also all lead to wrongful death claims.
No matter the claim, no matter the cause, when our attorneys take on your case, we will give it our full attention and will work hard to carry it through to fruition. As with all of our personal injury cases, we will not charge you any attorney or legal fees up front. We only get paid if we are successful in proving the defendant’s guilt and get compensation for your loss.
