An Overview of Wrongful Death Claims

In Texas, there is a two-year time limit to file a wrongful death claim against a defendant. This is not much time when you factor in the grieving process, as you may still be coming to grips with your loss while the deadline inches closer. We can help alleviate this burden by filing a claim on your behalf, giving you the space you need to mourn while we focus on building your case. It is in your best interests to file a wrongful death claim early on so that any evidence still left at the scene can be preserved.

In certain wrongful death claims, such as those involving product liability, medical malpractice, or commercial truck accidents, you may be up against a corporation represented by an aggressive legal team. Burress Injury Law will not back down against powerful defendants, and when it comes to securing compensation for your loss, we refuse to accept any lowball settlements. If the defendant refuses to compensate you for the real worth of your loss, we are prepared to argue your claim in court.

Damages in a Wrongful Death Claim

Knowing what your claim is worth can give you leverage in negotiations. At Burress Injury Law, our wrongful death lawyers will give your case a thorough appraisal so that we can argue from an informed position. Compensation in a wrongful death claim may factor in the following:

• Economic damages: The financial costs associated with the loss of your loved one, including the loss of income, funeral expenses, loss of inheritance, and the value of the services the deceased person would have provided.
• Non-economic damages: The emotional cost behind the death of your loved one, including the loss of companionship and the grief you have experienced.

The worth of a human life cannot be valued in money. Even so, we will do everything we can to give you and your family peace of mind with full compensation.
