How We Prove Negligence in a Claim

Proving negligence in a wrongful death claim requires a thorough investigation and a specific legal framework. We must show four things: first, that the at-fault party had a legal duty of care to your loved one; second, that they breached that duty through their careless actions; third, that this breach directly caused your loved one’s death; and fourth, that your family suffered actual damages as a result. This is not always easy. We will gather evidence from police reports, medical records, and accident reconstructions. We will also interview witnesses and consult with experts to build a strong case. This is a complex legal process, but we are experienced in this area of law. A Longmont wrongful death attorney will be your guide and your advocate. We will make sure the responsible party is held accountable for their actions and that you get the justice you deserve.

FAQs From Longmont Clients

Q. Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit?

A. The law specifies who can file a wrongful death lawsuit. In most cases, it is the spouse, children, or parents of the deceased. These are the people who have suffered a direct loss and have a right to seek compensation. In some cases, other family members may also have a right to file. The law is complex and varies by state. We will help you determine if you have a right to file a claim and who else in the family can receive compensation. This is often a difficult time for a family. We will handle the legal process and all the paperwork for you. A lawyer will make sure your family’s rights are protected and that the responsible party is held accountable for their actions. We believe the responsible party should pay for their carelessness.

Q. Who is responsible for paying my medical and funeral bills?

A. The person or company whose carelessness caused your loved one’s death is responsible for paying for your medical and funeral bills. This is why wrongful death claims exist. The at-fault party’s liability insurance will typically be the one to pay for these costs. However, getting the insurance company to pay quickly can be a long process. In the meantime, your medical bills may become a burden. Many people use their own health insurance to pay for the initial costs. When we reach a final settlement, your health insurance provider may be reimbursed from that settlement. This is called subrogation. We will handle these complexities for you. Your lawyer will work to get you the full compensation you deserve and make sure all of your medical and funeral costs are covered.

Q. Will my wrongful death case go to court?

A. The majority of wrongful death cases settle outside of court through negotiation with the at-fault party or their insurance company. Filing a lawsuit does not mean you are going to a trial. It is often a step in the negotiation process to show the insurance company that we are serious about your case. A lawyer will try to reach a fair settlement on your behalf without a court battle. We will handle all the communication with the insurance companies. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we will discuss with you the option of taking your case to trial. This happens when the insurance company refuses to offer a fair amount for your family’s losses. The final decision to go to court is always yours, and we will be there to advise you every step of the way.
