I would highly recommend anyone looking for an excellent attorney to work with Josh. He is approachable, personable, dedicated, and forthright and has helped me understand the complexities of my case every step of the way. Josh is always available to speak with me personally and to return my emails. I know what a rarity that is in today’s world given the horror stories I have heard from friends and family and their own attorney/client experiences and interactions. I am so very fortunate to have Josh in my corner!

Mr. Chilson handled my personal injury case. After the first two years of my case not moving much, Mr. Chilson took over the case and began to get the results we were looking for. He always kept us informed of the status of our case and never left any questions unanswered. Mr. Chilson made accommodations for our work schedules and called us at a time that was convenient for my husband and I to be together each time we spoke with him. I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I would like to think that employing Joseph as my attorney was one of the best decisions I have made in recent years.. Outgoing, personable, friendly, knowledgeable, wiling to go the extra mile, all blended in with compassion, care and understanding makes Joseph an ideal attorney, and I am proud to say a good friend. His wife a very attractive and sharp attorney in her own right, is a courteous and kind woman that complements him well. Thank-you and God bless you for caring Joseph Philip Henn.

Mr. Henn prepared a will and other estate planning documents for me. During the whole process he was kind, considerate, and really willing to listen to what was important to me. Whenever I had a question or concern, he was quick to call me back and explain everything (unlike some other attorneys who never call back clients). I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to feel like they are talking to an actual person who cares, and who will provide high quality legal services in a timely manner and at an affordable price. Wonderful attorney!

Mr. Davis and his team fought the good fight for us. He was in it for the long haul, not just a quick settlement. He got us justice, and I couldn’t be more thankful for that. I highly recommend this attorney to anyone injured in an accident, you deserve to be represented by the best.

He and his team often emailed me to check on my healing in my case. Whenever I had a question he and his assistant was always available to help me understand every detail. The responses were prompt and I did not have to talk to multiple lawyers and assistants. I only spoke with my lawyer and his assistant when he was unavailable. Campbell was also very knowledgeable and professional! I was please with my case, the process, and the time it took to resolve the case. I highly recommend Tobin injury Law.

Attorney Russell Dohan just handled a tragic accident involving one of our family members. It was resolved quickly and the firm was so easy to work with. It was the best case scenario.

Through my years I have dealt with several different attorneys. Russell Dohan is the professional attorney that I have ever dealt with. Russell reasearched all aspects of my case, he kept me well informed about everything going on. Both in the court room and out he is very professional, curtious, respectful, etc. I can not say enough good about him, so if you are looking for an attorney that will work with you on your case then he is your man. If not for his dillegence on my case I would not have ended up with the settlement that I received, which I am very happy with. As far as I am concerned you can not get any better attorney for personal injury then Russell Dohan and his staff.

I was referred by a colleague and I couldn’t be more impressed. After getting into my first car accident, I was worried and confused as to what to expect of this. From the very first phone call and meeting with Justin, I knew I was going to be in good hands. Not only did he put my mind to ease after something so traumatic, but he also walked me through start to finish of what the process would be like. My car was fixed in a timely manner, was able to get all my medical payments covered, and get a great settlement amount for all that I went through. I couldn’t ask for a better experience through such a difficult time. I would definitely reccomend Tahmazian Law Firm to anyone who needs it.

At all times, Vadim and Angelica were accessible and very responsive to my questions and concerns, communicating directly with me to explain strategies and the legal process honestly and clearly. They kept me informed and explained the legalities as the case progressed, while maintaining compassion and sensitivity to my loss. They truly worked for me, achieving a very favorable outcome and they will do the same for any of their clients.

Keith Fuicelli was very thorough, honest, and compassionate in reviewing and handling my personal injury claim involving a broken back suffered when I was struck by a car while riding my bicycle. He was able to obtain an excellent settlement from the insurance company that for many months had tried to settle for almost nothing. He was able to avoid going to trial, but I believe would have represented me very capably if it had become necessary.

I was in a motor vehicle accident while on vacation in Las Vegas. After being rear ended and suffering a concussion I started to experience lots of medical issues. I hired an attorney in Las Vegas to help me but he had no experience in Mild traumatic brain injury . Big Mistake! He had no clue, he thought all I had was a headache and it would go away. I started to look for a new attorney as I came across Tim Titolo's site. I called him and after talking to him it was clear he understood brain injuries! He was so knowledgeable and compassionate. Tim was able to get me a fair settlement in just a few months of taking over the claim! I can't say enough about Tim, he always returned my calls and emails and answered all of my questions. Tim is an expert on brain injuries if you have been injured and suffered a brain injury call him he has the experience and knowledge to understand this life altering injury.

But for my recent incident only because of my outcome sustaining a TBI (tramatic Brain injury) along with other injuries to other extremities Tim Titolo was recommended to me by a trusted friend. After researching a few other attorneys my husband and I were confident with all the facts found on Mr. Titolo. Although my case was not as high profile as he is experienced with we had no doubt that we would be able to trust in his knowledge where we lacked in the given situation. I would highly recommend the Titolo Law Offices services if you find yourself with serious injuries such as a Brain injury.

I was involved in a head on collision one early morning heading to work. The gentleman that caused the accident accepted full liability. Even though the gentleman accepted responsibility for the accident it seemed impossible to keep up with the incredibly overwhelming medical bills that seemed to never stop revolving. I also was dealing with many details, questions, and concerns from the insurance companies. After much advice and consideration I took my time to find the right attorney that I felt comfortable with. I wanted to find someone to represent me with trust, kindness, approachability, credibleness, experience, and had the proper ethics for my case. That was the day I met Robert Garcin. On our first free consultation he was very kind, honest, and patient with me. He allowed me to take his information and agreements home to look over all documentation on him and make a decision on furthering his services. That took so much stress off of me to not feel pressured by an attorney and made me feel as if I could trust him and have some serenity in my stressful time. Upon hiring Mr. Gracin for representation I expressed to him my concerns, worries, needs, and goals for my case. Robert Garcin always kept my best interest in everything he did. He handled my auto injury case with respect, dignity, and honor while still staying strong and consistent with all companies, parties, and people involved. He continued to show his patience and was always willing to take the time to answer any questions that I had. He always made sure that I had a full understanding as to what was happening with my case at all times. He was willing to discuss case information and case updates not only over the phone and email but actually take the time to meet with me in his clean, quiet, professional offices. Robert always worked with my schedule which was nice when I had to meet with him in person because I hold a very busy career with long hours. He would never shrug me off or make me feel as if my concerns and case was not important. If it was important to me it was important to him. I even brought my one year old son to a meeting and he was accepting and respectful as I was of his offices and staff which made not only me feel important but made me feel that my family was important to him as well. In the end of my case the worries and concerns I stressed about were all resolved and his compassion and will to serve proper justice was presented. I was more than pleased with our settlement amount that I received and was actually shocked by the more than expected amount he fought for. Robert was fair in his price and fees, all of my medical expenses were paid, and I was able to replace the negative emotional quandaries with relief and contentment. I would highly recommend his expert legal representation. I would refer Robert Garcin and his amazing staff to anyone in need with their personal injury case and would definitely use his representation again if needed in any future unfortunate events. “Thank you Robert Garcin for everything that you have done for me and my family. You were there when we didn’t know what to do and when we had no hope on the future of our life changing incident. Words will never explain the appreciation and respect I have for you.” -Sincerely, Bobby

Amazing Law Firm!!! Jacob Jackson has went above and beyond working on my car accident case from day one. I am a single mom raising both of my teenage daughters myself. Both of my children have an underlying medical condition which requires several doctor visits per year. The impact of this car accident has really seem to make my life feel extremely overwhelming mentally/emotionally/physically/financially at times but hiring Jacob Jackson as my attorney, an attorney who cares about his clients and also listens has been a blessing! I personally know how extremely busy an attorney can be with the understanding updates on my case were not going to happen over night. I will say, I’ve never had to wait countless days or weeks for updates from Jacob. From any and every phone conversation, to emails, text messages to in person driving a hour to meet with me saving me the inconvenience of a travel I was not able to make nor did I have transportation to make the drive. I am astonished by the level of compassion, professionalism, extensive knowledge, and superior willingness to listen that Jacob has provided. Jacob has been the best advocate during this most challenging time in my life! I would highly recommend him and have already recommended him to friends and family. Jacob Jackson has always had my best interest at heart regardless of the dollar amount and his actions have proven it. I would absolutely hire him again because he has something that holds value, he has integrity. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “If you don't have integrity, you have nothing. You can't buy it.

Mike went above and beyond while representing our 20 year old son following an auto accident. We appreciated Mike's ability to deal with our son at a level that our son would understand. We (with our son's permission) were also informed and consulted each step of the way throughout the process. Mike guided us on our options with an outcome much better than we ever expected!

What a Wrongful Death Lawyer Can Do for You

A wrongful death lawyer specializes in representing families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. These lawyers help families seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses associated with the untimely death of a loved one, including medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death claims can arise from various situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and criminal actions.

If you have lost a family member due to someone else’s wrongful actions, a wrongful death lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.

When Should I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a wrongful death lawyer if a loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm. Some common reasons to hire a wrongful death lawyer include:

  • Car accidents: If a loved one was killed in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident caused by another driver’s negligence (e.g., reckless driving, DUI, or distracted driving), a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim.
  • Medical malpractice: If a loved one died due to medical negligence, such as a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue compensation from the healthcare provider.
  • Workplace accidents: If your loved one died in a workplace accident or due to unsafe working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation from the employer or third parties responsible for the unsafe conditions.
  • Defective products: If a defective product caused your loved one’s death, a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
  • Criminal actions: If your loved one was the victim of a criminal act, such as homicide or assault, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue a civil claim for damages, even if a criminal case is also ongoing.
  • Nursing home negligence: If an elderly loved one died due to neglect or abuse in a nursing home, a lawyer can help you hold the facility accountable for their wrongful actions.

Hiring a wrongful death lawyer soon after the incident ensures that important evidence is preserved and that you can meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim.

What Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Do?

A wrongful death lawyer provides a wide range of services to help families navigate the legal complexities of a wrongful death claim and seek compensation for their losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the death: Conducting a thorough investigation of the circumstances leading to your loved one’s death, gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
  • Establishing liability: Identifying who is legally responsible for your loved one’s death, whether it’s an individual, company, or government entity, and building a case showing how their negligence or wrongful actions caused the death.
  • Calculating damages: Helping you determine the full extent of your financial and emotional losses, including funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering.
  • Filing a wrongful death claim: Preparing and filing the necessary legal documents to initiate a wrongful death lawsuit within the statute of limitations in your state.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with the responsible party’s insurance company or legal team to negotiate a fair settlement for your losses.
  • Representing you in court: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Handling legal deadlines: Ensuring that all legal filings are completed within the deadlines set by your state’s statute of limitations for wrongful death cases.

How Are Wrongful Death Lawyers Paid?

Wrongful death lawyers typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Here’s how it generally works:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is usually a percentage of the total settlement or damages awarded, typically ranging from 25% to 40%. You won’t have to pay any upfront fees, and the lawyer only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer does not win or settle your case, you generally won’t owe them any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, you may also be responsible for reimbursing the lawyer for case-related expenses, such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. These expenses are typically deducted from the settlement or award.

It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a wrongful death lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee structure, meaning you only pay if the lawyer recovers compensation for you. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Most wrongful death lawyers charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or court award. For example, if you receive a $500,000 settlement and the lawyer’s fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $165,000, and you would keep the remaining $335,000.
  • Case expenses: In addition to the lawyer’s fee, expenses such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs may be deducted from the settlement or award. These expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.

Make sure to ask your lawyer for a clear explanation of their fees and case-related expenses before proceeding with your wrongful death claim.

Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Death Lawyer

Before hiring a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and resources to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with wrongful death cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has successfully handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s medical malpractice, car accidents, or workplace deaths.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify the lawyer’s contingency fee percentage and any additional costs, such as case expenses, that you may be responsible for.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges that could affect the outcome.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Wrongful death cases can take time to resolve, so ask how long the lawyer expects the process to last, from filing the claim to reaching a settlement or going to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court.
  6. What types of damages can I recover?
    Ask the lawyer to explain the types of compensation you may be entitled to, such as medical bills, funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Death Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable wrongful death lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for wrongful death experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in wrongful death cases and have successfully handled cases like yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on wrongful death cases.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) or local bar associations can indicate the lawyer’s dedication to wrongful death and personal injury law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Death certificate: Bring a copy of your loved one’s death certificate, as this is a key document in wrongful death cases.
  • Medical records: If applicable, bring your loved one’s medical records, autopsy reports, or any documentation of their medical care leading up to their death.
  • Accident or incident reports: If the wrongful death resulted from an accident, bring any police reports, accident reports, or workplace incident reports.
  • Financial records: Provide documentation of your loved one’s income, benefits, and financial contributions to the family to help calculate economic damages.
  • Correspondence: Bring any communication you’ve had with the responsible party, their insurance company, or legal representatives.
  • List of questions: Prepare a list of questions for the lawyer about the legal process, potential outcomes, and fees.
  • Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the events leading up to and following your loved one’s death.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice.
