We Care For Your Family After A Wrongful Death
Losing a family member unexpectedly is tragic, and when it could have been prevented, families are often justifiably angry. If someone’s negligence caused a fatal accident or injury, the surviving family members can seek compensation for their losses.
At Thigpen & Jenkins, L.L.P., we have represented many families in wrongful death suits in North Carolina. Our experience in personal injury cases allows us to confidently pursue compensation for wrongful death so the family can begin to move forward. Please contact us to learn about your specific situation. Your consultation is free.
How Did The Accident Happen?
There are myriad ways that a person can suffer a fatal injury. Some of the most common causes of wrongful death include:
- Car, truck, pedestrian, bike and motorcycle accidents
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Accidents on unsafe property
These are just a few of the causes of wrongful death; you can contact us if you have questions about your case.
We Will Vigorously Seek Full Compensation For Your Family
While money will not undo what has happened to your loved one, it can allow you to pay the expenses associated with the death and cover your additional financial losses. In North Carolina, you can get damages for:
- Medical bills related to the accident
- Pain and suffering the person experienced prior to death
- Loss of their current and future income
- The loss of their contributions to the household
- The personal loss of the loved one that the family suffers
- The cost of the funeral and burial
Obtaining these damages is not an easy process, however. As is true with personal injury cases, the insurance company will likely try to pay as little as possible or may deny the claim completely.
Our attorneys have over 100 years of combined legal experience. You can be certain that we know how to manage wrongful death claims. We understand that your family needs this compensation to pay the medical bills and funeral costs, and to make up for the loss of the deceased’s income.
