First sentence: A wrongful death is one that is caused by the negligence or wrongful act of another. A wrongful death case refers to the type of claim that may be brought on behalf of certain surviving relatives to recover compensation against the party responsible for causing that death. Specifically, Washington law defines this cause of action as the death of a person “caused by the wrongful act, neglect, or default of another.”
Description: No amount of money will ever make up for the loss of a loved one but our civil justice system recognizes that a wrongful death can impose severe emotional and financial consequences on the surviving family members and that monetary compensation may be the only way to achieve justice.  <a href="https://www.injurytriallawyer.com/reports/wrongful-death-in-washington-state.cfm">The Essential Guide To Wrongful Death Law in Washington State</a> will help families understand and navigate the legal process when a loved one has been killed due to negligence.   The book sensitively addresses common issues and questions that may arise after the death of a loved one.  It offers an overview of the wrongful death laws and the litigation process; explains the need to start a probate action; offers suggestions on how to deal with medical and funeral bills; describes how to make sure that the surviving children and family members are fairly compensated; and outlines the necessary legal steps involved in a wrongful death lawsuit.  This book will also help you to determine if you actually need a wrongful death attorney; learn how to hire a wrongful death lawyer; and how to begin a wrongful death claim. The book also covers what you need to know about lawsuits and the legal process.
Notes: “Kudos to Seattle lawyer Chris Davis for his new book, “The Washington Wrongful Death Book.” In his book, Mr. Davis explains in plain English how the Washington wrongful death laws help families seek justice and recover fair compensation after a loved has been killed in an accident or due to medical malpractice. Family members can read this book in privacy and discuss
important issues among themselves before they even contact a lawyer. It is no wonder why Mr. Davis is admired by jurors and highly respected by the local and national media. His ability to communicate with sincerity, respect and compassion are apparent to anyone who reads his book.”
