When a loved one dies due to unfortunate circumstances, and grief overwhelms you, it is a good assumption that you are not thinking about lawyers and lawsuits. But when you do get a chance to sit and think about what to do next, and how you will survive, you may want to consider contacting a New York accident lawyer and filing a wrongful death suit.
Wrongful death lawsuits can be filed when a loved dies in an accident, such as the collision between an SUV and a commuter train that left many dead, or in a hospital during surgery, if the surgeon acted in a manner that can be proven to be negligent. The New York accident lawyer will hear the details of the accident and launch their own investigation.

Your lawyer can interview witnesses, contact authorities, and negotiate settlements with insurance companies if need be, all to ensure that you receive fair and deserving compensation for the tragic death of your loved one. This is especially important if the individual that passed away was the primary financial provider, because you will need to be compensated for the loss of that person’s wages and other factors, so that you will be financially taken care of for the remainder of your life in a manner that your spouse would have been able to provide. An experienced New York personal injury lawyer knows what questions to ask and what details to look for during an investigation, as well as how to find a person or entity negligent and responsible for the death of your loved one.
