Wrongful Death

Need an Injury Lawyer for a New Jersey Wrongful Death Accident?

After an accident causes you serious injuries, you might have a decent understanding of how you will bring a claim against a liable party. There is a period of time where certain evidence is collected, a filing process, and meeting deadlines with the help of an attorney. But what happens when you have lost a loved one in a serious accident and you have to bring a wrongful death claim?

You might be somebody who never expected to have someone taken from you too soon. However, these accidents happen every day, uprooting your life in its tracks. If you have lost somebody extremely close to you like a parent or child, you might wonder how you can speak with an attorney about your case. You have many options during this difficult time.

Protecting Rights in Your Case

There are some aspects that many people must remember when it comes to wrongful death claims. You might assume that anybody close to the loved one can bring a claim, but this is not always the case. You want to be prepared for anything, which is why you should always remember these aspects:

  • There is still a statute of limitations to be met when it comes to your wrongful death case, or how long you have to file your claim before time runs out. In New Jersey, you have two years from the date of your loved one’s death to file a claim, which gives you plenty of time to consider your claim and start working with an attorney.
  • You want to make sure that all of your records are secured and that you have every bit of information relating to your claim. This means everything from witness statements and photographs to medical bills and more.
  • You want to ensure that you have all information relating to your police report. This is especially true if police have faulted a specific party for your accident, as this can come in handy when holding a party liable.

Who is Permitted to File?

When it comes to wrongful death claims, not just anybody can file a claim on behalf of a loved one. If you are somebody who had a close, meaningful relationship with a loved one, you might have the ability to file a claim. This usually refers to those who are children, spouses, parents, or other personal representatives to the loved one before they lost their life.

You might be going through a period of grief after having to say goodbye to your loved one too soon. It might be difficult to handle the bills after your accident, handle lost wages due to missing out on work, or deal with the emotional suffering on a new level. We want to help you compensate for the damages that have piled up after you have lost somebody during a difficult time. Let us offer a helping hand and handle your wrongful death case from start to finish. Seek the help of a legal advocate that will always be on your side.
