Compensation In Wrongful Death Claims
It’s difficult to put a price tag on human life, or even discuss finances when a life has been lost. After all, even a billion dollars won’t bring your loved one back.
Nevertheless, I will still strive to pursue maximum compensation on your behalf. While the financial consequences of your loss might not yet be on your mind, I aim to help your family avoid all the economic burdens associated with your loved one’s death – today and in the future.
I hope that recovering the full amount of damages can bring justice to your family and give you the time and space you need to properly grieve your loss. Once I get to know you and your family, I can describe the decedent’s impact on your lives and help make sure you never feel the effects of a missing income or a lost inheritance.
What Damages Can Be Recovered In A Wrongful Death Case?
The economic and noneconomic damages your Columbus wrongful death attorney can recover include:
- Medical fees incurred before the victim’s passing
- Funeral expenses
- Loss of expected earnings from the deceased
- Loss of benefits including medical coverage or pension plans
- Damages for causing pain and suffering to the surviving family
- Loss of love, care, protection and companionship to the surviving family
- Loss of consortium to the surviving spouse
The better I know you, the better I can express your situation to the responsible parties in settlement negotiations or to a judge or jury in the event of a courtroom trial.
I encourage you to get in touch as soon as you are able.
Can I Sue For Emotional Distress?
If you are experiencing emotional distress due to the wrongful death of your loved one, you are not alone.

It is crucial to receive the proper care and compensation necessary to help you through this time.
How Can I Prove Emotional Distress?
