Garland Wrongful Death Attorney

Respected Texas Wrongful Death Attorney Helping Victims in Garland

Sadly, there are some situations where people are killed due to the negligence or misconduct of others. For families who are affected by the untimely deaths of loved ones, these are not only deeply tragic events, but they are situations that can cause a great deal of financial and personal difficulty. Treatments received prior to the person's death may result in large medical bills, and the loss of the income earned by the deceased can lead to problems covering ongoing expenses. At the same time, family members may struggle with emotional trauma as they deal with the sudden and unexpected loss of a relationship that should have lasted for many more years.

Families who are dealing with the death of a loved one will need to understand their legal options. A wrongful death claim may provide them with financial compensation for their losses, and a skilled and experienced attorney can help ensure that a case will be handled correctly. At Burress Injury Law, we have handled numerous cases involving serious or fatal injuries, and with experience in more than 500 trials, we know how to win these cases and ensure that our clients are properly compensated. We are ready to fight on behalf of a family that has suffered a tragic loss and ensure that the person or parties responsible for a wrongful death are held accountable for their negligence.

Types of Accidents and Fatal Injuries

Wrongful deaths can occur in a wide variety of situations, including:

• Car accidents: Reckless driving, speeding, driving under the influence, or other forms of driver negligence can lead to fatal injuries in collisions. Negligent drivers should be held liable for acting in ways that led to the deaths of car wreck victims.
• Truck accidents: Due to their significant size and weight, 18-wheelers and other commercial trucks can cause devastating accidents that are more likely to result in fatal outcomes for people in other vehicles. Negligent truck drivers, trucking companies, or other parties may be held liable for fatal truck wrecks.
• Motorcycle accidents: Motorcyclists are extremely vulnerable on the road. Fatalities can occur due to a lack of physical protection during accidents, making any collision potentially deadly. Negligent drivers who fail to protect the safety of motorcyclists may be held liable for fatal injuries in these situations.
• Pedestrian accidents: Pedestrians struck by vehicles can suffer fatal injuries, especially in high-speed impacts or when hit by large, heavy vehicles. Drivers who act negligently and kill pedestrians should be held responsible for the harm caused.
• Dog bites: Some dog attacks can lead to fatal injuries, particularly in cases involving vulnerable victims like children or the elderly. Negligent dog owners or other responsible parties should be held liable for these tragedies.
• Swimming pool accidents: Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death, especially among young children. When fatal injuries in swimming pool accidents occur because of a lack of proper supervision or safety measures, pool owners may be held liable.
• Fall accidents: Falls from significant heights or even slip-and-fall accidents on hard surfaces can be fatal, due to serious head injuries or other forms of severe bodily harm. Property owners may be held liable for fatal accidents through premises liability claims.
• Defective products: Flaws in consumer products and systems meant to protect people's safety can lead to fatal injuries. Malfunctioning auto parts, medical devices, or tools and equipment may lead to wrongful deaths, and product manufacturers may be held accountable.
