Wrongful Death Attorneys

If you have lost a loved one or family member to the irresponsibility or negligence of another individual or party, you are left with a deep sense of immediate loss, as well as a need for answers. At Shanks Law Firm, we advocate on behalf of families seeking justice and closure following the loss of a loved one. We understand the many details, forms of evidence and opinions that are required to build a successful case in wrongful death matters. We are equipped with the resources and network of professionals to efficiently investigate the matter and advocate on your behalf.

Common Types Of Fatal Accidents

Types of fatal accident cases can include:

• Semitruck accidents
• Medical malpractice
• Surgical errors
• Construction site accidents
• Prescription drug error

Unless criminal charges were filed against the responsible parties, financial awards are the only means offered by the law to provide justice for your loved one. These resolutions help to bring closure to the family. They also serve to provide financially for family and children who remain, particularly if the deceased individual was the primary breadwinner in the household.

These damages not only serve to bring closure to the families, they help to act as a regulatory deterrent, helping to prevent these kinds of tragedies from occurring to other families in the future.

We take all wrongful death cases on a contingency fee basis. We do not accept a fee unless you obtain compensation. This allows you to focus on the personal grieving and healing process as we handle the legal load.
