If a family member has passed away due to the conduct of another, you may be entitled to damages through the civil justice system. The wrongful death attorneys at The Podor Law Firm will work tirelessly to obtain justice for the family of the deceased individual.

​

A wrongful death claim is a claim made for damages by close family members or the personal representative of the deceased person. The claim can be made against any individual or entity that contributed to causing the death, whether the conduct was negligent, reckless, or even intentional. Wrongful death claims cover a wide range of conduct, from shootings and fights, to car and truck accidents, scaffolding falls to medical malpractice. A wrongful death case is separate from any criminal prosecution the government may pursue against a wrongdoer.
