Negligence, carelessness and recklessness can cause the death of a family member or loved one.  If the negligence of another person caused the death of your loved one or family member, you may have the right to file a “wrongful death suit”.  The pain and dismay of the loss of a loved one is completely overwhelming.  To deal with legal issues during the time of grieving over your loss is painful, but unfortunately, sometimes necessary.  Another individual or company may actually be at fault, and the legal system allows for a suit to be filed if this is the case.  The wrongful death attorneys of Colgan & Associates will assist you in establishing such a suit by evaluating the case at no cost to you.  

Wrongful Death Attorney

The circumstances surrounding a wrongful death can be extremely varied.  Wrongful Death actions can occur after severe automobile, tractor trailer or motorcycle crashes, as a result of jobsite injuries or from dangerous products, to name a few.  An individual considering such a suit after a tragic, untimely death in the family needs to contact a wrongful death attorney to evaluate the case as quickly as possible.  The legal issues must be identified and handled carefully and professionally and investigations may be needed immediately.  Important evidence must not be lost due to waiting too long.  It is vital when engaging in a wrongful death suit that you have qualified representation with an experienced attorney who knows the law. 

The firm is not only skilled in this area of law, but  also has compassion for you and your family in this most difficult time.  The firm is knowledgeable, honest and approachable.  In your time of need, you want a wrongful death attorney who will treat you and your family with respect.  At our office, you and you case matter to us. 

After a fatal incident, it is necessary to determine if you are eligible to file a wrongful death lawsuit.  Unlike a Survival Action, which is brought on behalf of the decedent, in a Wrongful Death Action, establishing your right to file the lawsuit is a necessary first step.  An executor or administrator of the estate may also have the right to file such a suit on behalf of the estate of the deceased person.  Your wrongful death lawyer at the firm handles the estate administration with the wrongful death and survival actions.

There are specific types of damages that may be awarded under both the Pennsylvania Wrongful Death and Survival Acts and it is important that even in your time of grief that these questions get answered to your satisfaction by experienced legal counsel.  The wrongful death attorneys at the firm are highly qualified to help you and your case.  Call the firm and let us help you in this most difficult time.  You need expert legal representation, and you need it immediately.
