We stand beside grieving families seeking justice and financial stability.
A wrongful death lawsuit is a civil claim filed when a person's death is caused by the negligence or wrongful act of another party. Medical expenses, funeral costs, lost income, and the emotional toll on surviving family members can be overwhelming.
No amount of money can replace a loved one. But compensation can provide stability during an incredibly difficult time and hold negligent parties accountable.
In Connecticut, only the executor or administrator of the deceased's estate can file a wrongful death claim. We can help establish the estate representative and guide the family through every step of the process.
We manage evidence, coordinate with experts, and handle all legal strategy so you can focus on your family. Our approach is to provide clear information, honest guidance, and the advocacy your loved one deserves.
Pecuniary loss (financial support the family has lost). Medical expenses incurred before death. Funeral and burial costs. Loss of companionship, consortium, and guidance.
Punitive damages are rare in Connecticut wrongful death cases but permitted when the defendant's actions were extreme. You generally have two years from the date of death to file.

I thank him for that and would definitely recommend him to anyone out there.
