Helping Families Hold Negligent Parties Accountable
Losing a loved to an accident or another negligent act can be devastating. You may not know where to turn or how to begin picking up the pieces. The important thing to remember is that legal options exist to hold negligent parties accountable for their actions and to help you get the compensation that you need in order to begin putting your life back together.
At the law firm of Menges & McLaughlin, P.C., our York wrongful death attorneys have been helping family members get compensation for the loss of a loved one for more than 30 years. We will handle your case with understanding and compassion, and will work to find out exactly what went wrong and how to prevent these types of fatal accidents from occurring in the future. We understand that no amount of compensation can replace the loss of a loved one. However, we can send a message the irresponsible acts will not be tolerated.
We Handle Fatal Accidents of All Types
Our Pennsylvania personal injury attorneys have extensive experience handling wrongful death claims resulting from all types of fatal accidents, including:
- Auto accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Truck accidents
- Products liability accidents
- Medical malpractice (claim review and evaluation only)
- Nursing home negligence
- Drunk driver crashes
Regardless of how the accident occurred, you and your family will likely be left with a number of expenses following the accident, including medical bills, funeral costs, lost wages, child care expenses, loss of income and other damages such as pain and suffering. We will work hard to help you get the full and fair compensation you need to cover these expenses and help you move forward with your life.
Survival Actions
Survival actions differ slightly from wrongful death claims. In a survival action, a lawsuit will be filed by the accident victim. If the accident victim dies before the lawsuit is settled, his or her executor as named in the estate plan will stand in the victim's shoes. When the suit is settled, the victim's estate will receive any proceeds resulting from the lawsuit. We will also handle survival action cases.
