Wrongful Death
Whether you’re seeking recourse against an individual, a business, or an insurance provider, Mel and Mallory possess the expertise required to ensure that responsible parties are held accountable.
When a loved one’s death is caused by someone’s negligence or carelessness, the initial steps can feel overwhelming. However, you don’t have to navigate this tragedy by yourself.
At our firm, we understand that no amount of legal action can replace your loved one or fully compensate for your loss. Nonetheless, we’re here to help you pursue financial compensation through the legal system. With decades of experience handling wrongful death and estate matters, our attorneys specialize in advocating for those left behind by fatal accidents in western Pennsylvania. You can rely on us to support you with expertise and empathy from the outset until your case is resolved.
Who can file a wrongful death claim?
In Pennsylvania, specific individuals have the authority to initiate wrongful death lawsuits. If your loved one established an estate plan, the designated personal representative of the estate can pursue legal action. Alternatively, if there’s no estate plan or will, our experience as estate and probate attorneys allows us to begin the process seamlessly.
With a deep understanding of Pennsylvania probate and estate law, we can navigate the legal procedures and necessary documentation to begin a wrongful death lawsuit.
What damages does a wrongful death claim cover?
- Expenses for your loved one’s funeral and burial
- Costs of estate administration
- Medical bills
- Lost wages and loss of future income
- Noneconomic damages
