What Is a “Wrongful Death”?
In Massachusetts, a “wrongful death” is when a person’s death is caused by the negligence or wrongful act of another. Our experienced wrongful death attorneys in Newton can help if you need a:
- Newton car accident lawyer: If your loved one was killed in a car accident caused by the other driver, we may be able to help you get compensation for your loss.
- Newton slip-and-fall lawyer: Did your loved one lose their life after falling on somebody else’s property? You may be able to get money for the property owner’s negligence.
- Newton truck accident lawyer: Thanks to their huge size, accidents involving 18-wheelers tend to be especially deadly. Let us help you hold the truck driver or the company they work for responsible for the death of your loved one.
- Newton motorcycle lawyer: Other drivers tend not to notice motorcycles. Sadly, that can have catastrophic consequences. If your loved one was killed on their motorcycle by another driver, schedule a free consultation with us today.
- Newton workers’ compensation lawyer: Did your loved one lose their life on the job? You may be entitled to compensation. Contact us to find out how much your case may be worth.
- Newton nursing home abuse lawyer: Nursing homes should be safe places for our loved ones to age in peace, but abuse and neglect can still occur there. Let us know if your loved one’s death was caused by nursing home neglect or abuse.
If your loved one was killed in an accident not listed above, we may still be able to help you, so schedule a free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your wrongful death claim.
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim in Massachusetts?
Only the executor of a deceased person’s estate may file a wrongful death claim in Massachusetts.
If your loved one has a will, they probably named an executor in their will. If your loved one lost their life without a will, the court will appoint an executor to the estate.
