Wrongful Death

Losing a family member is never easy, but losing a family member as the result of another person’s reckless or negligent behavior can be emotionally devastating for the family. Our attorneys understand this, and we work diligently to recover financial damages for the loss of a loved one. We recognize that no legal settlement or trial verdict will ever make up for the tragic loss of a loved one, but our firm will make sure that your rights, benefits and legal remedies are protected and preserved.

Damages can include lost earnings and financial support, compensation for the victim’s medical expenses, burial costs, and reasonable compensation for the loss of love, companionship, and moral support. The kind of (and percentage amount) of recovery that each plaintiff can receive depends on their biological relationship to the deceased. Damage awards also include interest from the date that the person died.

The Boston, Massachusetts law firm of Altman & Altman, LLP represents the surviving family members of victims who died in tragic accidents caused by the careless or reckless actions of another party. If someone you loved has died in a car accident, truck collision, bus crash, train collision, a motorcycle accident, a work accident, a slip and fall accident, or because a doctor, a product manufacturer, a premise owner, or someone else was negligent, Contact one of our Boston, Massachusetts Wrongful Death Lawyers immediately.
