The unexpected death of a loved one is a devastating event that can shatter your day-to-day existence. On top of the grief that you must be feeling, pursuing legal action can be daunting, to say the least. You have end-of-life expenses to consider and securing your family’s finances in an uncertain future.
If you believe that your loved one’s death resulted from the negligence, then you may be entitled to compensation. Of course, the legal framework surrounding the situation that led to your loved one’s death will determine exactly what kind of losses you will be able to recuperate. Even if your case seems clear-cut, insurance companies will always exhaust their resources to minimize your settlement. Don’t let this discourage you. With a team of experienced wrongful death lawyers, such as the Ward Law Group, you will have a distinct advantage when negotiating a fair settlement.
With nearly a decade of experience, The Ward Law Group has handled every type of insurance claim under the sun. From clear-cut cases to blurry shades of gray, The Ward Law Group knows how to work the system in your favor.

90% of all lawsuits involving medical malpractice fall under the category of wrongful death or permanent disability. In 2006, the Institute of Medicine reported that the most common cause of medical malpractice involved prescription errors. A prescription error can involve the administration of the wrong medication, an incorrect or missed dosage, or the wrong route of delivery (e.g. the oral administration of a topical medication).
Of course, medical malpractice is just one example of what can go wrong. The Ward Law Group also handles the following wrongful death cases (plus more):
The compensation available in a wrongful death claim often depends on who is filing the lawsuit. Typically speaking, survivors are legally entitled to a wider degree of recovery for damages than are beneficiaries.
If you believe that the death of your loved one entitles you to legal compensation, then you should meet with a wrongful death lawyer immediately. You may have the right to recover lost wages, profits, and benefits that your loved one would have earned if he or she had survived the accident. Additionally, you may be entitled to remuneration for the medical and funeral expenses of your loved one. And, depending upon the nature of your case, you may qualify for loss of consortium, a special kind of compensation that considers the irrecoverable loss of a family relationship.
If you meet the legal definition of a survivor (spouse, son, father, brother, etc.), then the damages available to you will depend upon your relationship to the deceased.
In addition to serving English-speaking personal injury victims, The Ward Law Group is passionate about providing bilingual legal services to the Spanish-speaking community. Don't let language become an additional barrier to getting the compensation you deserve for your claim. Contact our team of legal advisors at the Ward Law Group today!

Contact The Ward Law Group today to secure your legal rights and hire reputable insurance companies.
In order to build a successful case, it will depend on the circumstances that led to your loved one’s passing. You should contact a wrongful death lawyer as soon as you possibly can, as some states have deadlines which limit the time for claimants to file a case. The sooner you connect with a team of attorneys, the better your chances for securing a fair settlement.
Your lawyer will handle all communication between you and your insurance company until an acceptable outcome is achieved. During this time, keep your paperwork detailing all expenses, such as medical costs, associated with your loved one’s death.
If you can act from the scene, your attorney may be able to send out investigators to collect photographic evidence, police reports, and witness statements. This is also an important time to assess any property damages that resulted from the accident.
Your attorney will also need to establish any income that your loved one would have earned had he or she survived the ordeal. Again, it is important to keep this information as well as any receipts to submit to your insurance company. This will help your attorney mount a case against the offending party and improve your chances of securing a settlement.
Don’t hesitate to get your claim started! The sooner you act, the better your chances when it comes to obtaining the compensation that you deserve. Remember, insurance adjusters work for big-name insurance companies and not for you. They will do everything in their power to ensure that you receive the smallest compensation possible. Don’t let them get away with it! Hire a team that you can trust and do it today.
