Wrongful Death

Justice and Just Compensation after a Wrongful Death

At the Law Office of Joanne R. Werner, we understand that nothing can truly compensate you for the loss of your loved one. However,when an individual, health care provider or company is responsible for the loss, they can and should be held accountable financially for the injury, pain, suffering that your loved one and his or her family have suffered.

Contact our Seattle, Washington injury law office for caring and compassionate legal help during difficult times. Our attorneys have helped many grieving families achieve compensation in wrongful death cases.

Wrongful Death Claims

A wrongful death lawsuit can accomplish the following:

• It can hold the negligent party responsible for their negligent or careless actions;
• It can provide compensation for the injury, fear, mental anguish, suffering, pain and death due to such actions 
• It can provide the surviving family with compensation for their emotional and financial loss including medical expenses and wage loss resulting from the injury and death

While most cases involving wrongful death settle out of court, when bringing a wrongful death suit to court, we work closely with our clients to present a full picture of the loss that surviving family members have suffered. That loss will include present and future wages, medical expenses, and funeral costs, but it will also include loss of guidance and companionship, love, and loss of care-giving.

If you’re considering bringing a wrongful death lawsuit after a fatal workplace accident or the negligence of a medical provider link to medical malpractice, you need an experienced lawyer who understands the law and the needs of grieving families.
