Q:

A loved one has been killed.  Do I have a wrongful death case in Wisconsin?

A:

When we talk about a wrongful death claim in Wisconsin or Illinois we are talking about a very broad range of "accidents."  These accidents, caused by the negligence or fault of another, are devastating to the friends and families of lost loved ones.  The list below includes some of the more common causes of a wrongful death:     

• Motor Vehicle Accidents (to include truck, car and motorcycle crashes)
• Accidents Caused by Drunk Drivers
• Slip and Fall
• Medical Malpractice
• Pharmaceutical Errors (to include dangerous prescription drugs)
• Workplace Accidents or Exposure
• Product Liability

As discussed above, the one thing that wrongful death claims to have in common is that they are caused by the negligence or fault of another party.

Our attorneys know all too well that the death of a child, spouse, partner or parent is an emotionally draining experience.  If you believe that your loved one has been killed due to the action, or inaction, of someone else, then you are experiencing stress and sadness that cannot be measured.  These worries can compound until you feel there is no hope of recovering from your loss.
