The term "wrongful death" means that an individual's death was the result of another party's negligence. A wrongful death claim must be filed by a relative of the person who died and in some cases, you (the relative) must first prove to the courts that you have the legal right to seek monetary damages from the negligent party (another individual, group or company).

Many wrongful death claims are filed as a result of an accident but may also occur from criminal acts and on the job negligence. In order to collect damages, you must prove that the defendant was, in fact, negligent and that their negligence caused the death. In addition to the immense grief that the family goes through following the death of a loved one, they must also make the decision of which attorney to choose. At Reiff & Bily our attorneys are skilled in the complexities of wrongful death law, and will try to resolve your case as quickly as possible.

If the death of your loved one was caused by the negligence of another person, you and your family have the right to be compensated for your loss.

Each state has its own "statute of limitations," which is the amount of time allotted to file a claim for negligence. It is vital that you file your claim within the legal time limits and preserve any supporting evidence that may help your case. As the relative of a wrongful death victim, it is your right to file a wrongful death lawsuit against negligent party, ensuring that they are held accountable for your loss and the loss of your remaining family members.
