Losing a loved one is never easy, nor does it seem fair, regardless of the cause. But when the death is sudden and unforeseen, coping with the loss can be too much to bear. As you’re reading this, you’ve likely lost a loved one as a result of someone’s negligence or malicious actions. Know that we’re truly sorry for what you’re going through as a result of your loved one’s Alabama wrongful death. The Alabama wrongful death lawyers of Norris Injury Lawyers extend our condolence to you and your family, and would like to offer our assistance to help you through this tragic time.

A Matter of Time

Fortunately, the creation of wrongful death statutes made it possible for the survivors of people who were killed by the careless or deliberately harmful actions of others to collect damages for the suffering and loss they experience in turn. The statute of limitations varies from state to state with regard to the time frame a wrongful death claim must be filed. An Alabama wrongful death attorney from Norris Injury Lawyers can advise you on how the state’s statute applies to you to ensure you act in due time.

Things to Consider

Wrongful death claims can be filed if one of three circumstances apply to the events surrounding your loved one’s death:

1. intentional actions, meaning your loved one was injured by someone who deliberately meant to harm him or her
2. negligence, meaning your loved one was harmed by someone’s careless actions
3. strict liability, meaning a manufacturer produced a defective, unsafe product

Medical malpractice, slip-and-fall accidents, work-related accidents, nursing home abuse, defective product or drug injuries, exposure to hazardous materials, and car accidents are a few types of injuries that can potentially lead to a wrongful death and lend to loved ones being able to file a claim. The compensation of a wrongful death claim depends on several factors, including relationship to the lost loved one. Parents, as well as spouses, can sue for loss of companionship, mental anguish, and potential financial contributions of the deceased. The claims also cover medical and burial expenses as well as any pain and suffering the deceased experienced.
