Under Arizona law, the term wrongful death includes the claims of husbands, wives, children, and parents for the loss of their loved one due to the negligent or intentional misconduct of another. Wrongful death claims include every type of accidental death.

Whether your loved one was killed by a drunken driver, in a construction accident, or in a violent assault resulting from negligent building security, as a surviving family member you may bring a wrongful death suit to seek compensation for both economic and non-economic losses. The damages you could recover for include those for loss of financial support, and loss of love, care, comfort, supervision, guidance, household assistance and general society.

Catastrophic Injury Claims

If a member of your family has suffered serious brain damage, or paraplegia or quadriplegia as a result of a spinal cord or neck injury, our lawyers will work with life-care experts to see that you receive maximum compensation. Compensation for your injuries can help you to provide for yourself and your family in the event the injury results in the need for nursing home care, use of handicapped accommodations, or on-going medical treatments.

A traumatic brain, spinal cord or other catastrophic injury is often followed by severe psychological and emotional trauma, including depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The expense of treating these conditions, the anticipated cost of life-long medical care, modifications to the home, and other considerations that cost millions of dollars over the lifetime of an injured client must all be carefully considered in calculating the value of the claim.
