Wrongful Death Accidents Can and Do Happen in Renton

If a family member or loved one has died or was killed as a result of negligence or misconduct on the part of another, a civil action charging another may be brought to recover damages.

There are legal complex issues that must be taken into consideration that, during a time of considerable grief, are best handled by an experienced wrongful death attorney. For example, a wrongful death lawsuit may only be brought by the personal representative of the decedent’s estate.

To bring a successful cause of action in the case of death as a result of negligence or misconduct of another, there are certain elements that must be present:

  • Death caused by negligence of another, or with intent to cause harm
  • Surviving family members suffering monetary injury as a result of the death
  • Death of a person
  • A personal representative for the estate of the decedent

As a law firm with a wrongful death attorney team that has extensive experience in litigating cases with these elements, we have a deep compassionate understanding for those who are struggling to make wise decisions.
