Losing a loved one due to someone else’s negligence or misconduct is an unimaginable tragedy. At Inserra | Kelley | Cooper | Sewell, we understand the profound grief and turmoil that accompany such a loss. Our dedicated wrongful death attorneys are here to provide compassionate support and pursue justice on behalf of your family.
Understanding Wrongful Death Claims
A wrongful death occurs when an individual’s life is cut short due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another party.
Common scenarios leading to wrongful death claims include:
Motor Vehicle Accidents: Fatalities resulting from car, motorcycle, or truck collisions.
Medical Malpractice: Deaths caused by misdiagnosis, surgical errors, or other medical negligence.
Defective Products: Fatal incidents involving unsafe consumer products or machinery.
Workplace Accidents: Fatalities occurring due to unsafe working conditions or employer negligence.
Nursing Home Negligence: Deaths resulting from inadequate care or abuse in assisted living facilities.
In Nebraska, wrongful death claims are governed by specific statutes that outline who may file a claim and the types of damages that may be recovered. Typically, the personal representative of the deceased’s estate initiates the lawsuit on behalf of surviving family members.
Pursuing Justice and Compensation
While no amount of compensation can replace your loved one, a successful wrongful death claim can provide financial relief and hold the responsible parties accountable.
Damages in wrongful death cases may include:
Medical Expenses: Costs incurred for medical treatment prior to death.
Funeral and Burial Costs: Expenses related to laying your loved one to rest.
Loss of Income: Compensation for the deceased’s lost wages and future earning potential.
Loss of Companionship: Damages for the emotional pain and suffering of losing a loved one.
Punitive Damages: In cases of gross negligence or intentional harm, additional damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer.
