Wrongful Death Accidents Can and Do Happen in SeaTac

Sadly, accidents resulting in death can and do happen most everywhere.

If a loved one or family member has died because of the negligence or misconduct on the part of another, consulting a wrongful death attorney is advisable. We say that because there are many complexities associated with these types of cases, and for the most part the facts of each case are unique.

There are certain elements that must be present in bringing a successful cause of action in the case of death as a result of negligence or misconduct on the part of another, such as:

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

Consulting with our experienced wrongful death attorney serving the SeaTac area will provide useful information about the need to prove your case to win, that the misconduct need not be criminal, and that damage awards can be very high.

For assistance in determining your legal recourse, and whether a wrongful death lawsuit is the right course of action, call our office to schedule a consultation.
