Have You lost a Loved One Due to Negligence by Another? Speak With Our Experienced Texas Wrongful Death Lawyers

One of the most tragic experiences people must face is the loss of a loved one. Yet, when the loss is the result of another person’s negligence, the sting of the loss is amplified. During the period of grief, it is difficult to focus on anything other than the loss of the loved one. However, over time the sorrow begins to subside and the family’s thoughts may turn to unanswered questions about their loss.

The state of Texas allows those who have lost a loved one because of the actions of a third party to seek a wrongful death claim to compensate for the losses that were suffered as a result of that death. It makes no difference if the death was caused by negligence or recklessness, a defective product, or medical malpractice, legal action can be initiated. The individual allowed to bring a legal action is defined by state law. Some states only allow the spouse and children to file a wrongful death claim while some permit grandparents and other relatives to bring a lawsuit against the liable party. Additionally, some restrictions have been put in place by states that prevent one family member from suing another family member for the wrongful death of a third family member.

Bringing a wrongful death lawsuit serves to hold the responsible parties accountable for their actions or inactions that resulted in the death of their loved one.
The negligent party can be punished financially by the lawsuit with the goal of changing the party’s behavior so that similar accidents of this nature can be avoided.
A lawsuit allows the family to seek compensation in order to relieve the financial burden that often occurs after the loss of a loved one. The compensation is especially important when the loved one was the primary wage earner in the family.

Insurance companies have a duty to treat their policyholders fairly and put the policyholder’s interests equal to or above that if the insurance company. Unfortunately, that legal duty often is not what happens in the real world. In representing our clients throughout the years, we have learned that insurance companies often victimize, mistreat and take advantage of the very people who thought they were good neighbors and in good hands. It should come as no surprise that many insurance companies have a practice which avoids payment, delays settlements, refuses to defend when their inusreds are sued and make their insureds fight for every penny they deserve. After all, the insurance company’s ultimate goal is to their bottom line of company profits. When an insurance company wrongfully denies or delays payment of a claim or refuses to defend a lawsuit, it could not occur at a worse time.

The good news is that when such wrongful denial or “bad faith” is addressed by a well qualified and experienced attorney, the result can be very favorable to the insured. The law allows the insured to collect for the wrongful denial of the claim. Often, the insured may also recover the legal costs and even punitive damages to punish the insurer for its conduct.
