Many wrongful death claims are resolved through negotiations that take place outside of the courtroom. Your attorney and the at-fault party’s insurance company will negotiate until they reach an agreed upon settlement. But if the insurance company refuses to negotiate or make a fair offer, your attorney may recommend taking the case to court and asking a jury to award the compensation that your family deserves. Sometimes, simply filing a lawsuit in court is enough to persuade the insurance company to make a fair offer and resolve the claim. But if not, our attorneys will be ready to fight for the compensation you deserve in the courtroom.
