A wrongful death occurs when one person is killed due to the negligent acts of another. Many of these deaths occur in serious auto accidents or because of a medical professional’s error. In these types of cases, surviving family members are entitled to seek compensation for the losses they have suffered as a result of their loved one’s death.
At Kuffel, Hultgrenn, Klashke, Shea & Ellerd, LLP, we represent eligible family members, including spouses, children, parents, siblings and other dependent individuals who have lost a loved one in a fatal accident. Our Richland wrongful death lawyers treat clients with compassion and respect, while tirelessly working to ensure that the negligent parties are held fully accountable.
