Maryland wrongful death lawyer

Wrongful death is when a victim was killed as a result of negligence or other type of liability. Typically the victim is represented by the surviving family members. Wrongful death claims are extremely emotional cases and require a special type of care. Our firm understands the emotional stress that goes along with these types of cases.

Monetary compensation can never replace the value of a person's life. Not only do the family members lose the loss of companionship and love from the victim they may also lose financial support. For example if the father of the house has been killed in a serious accident, how will the family support themselves finically? Financial compensation is just one type of damages that you can seek compensation for.

Loss of consortium

Loss of consortium is a difficult to put a monetary value on. If a wife no longer has the love and emotional support of her husband - how does one assign a financial value to that loss? Typically loss of consortium applies only to married couples however, recently there is a push to include couples that are not married and also same sex couples.

Lost Wages

Lost wages covers the money that the victim will no longer be able to make and provide for their family. Complex calculations are used to figure out how much the victim made at the time of death and how the loss of said wages will affect the surviving family.

Pain & Suffering
