Wrongful Death Attorney in Reno

A wrongful death attorney is a type of a personal injury attorney who helps families navigate the legal process after the loss of a loved one due to someone else's negligence or misconduct.  

In a wrongful death case, you may be able to recover both economic and non-economic losses incurred by the surviving family members as a result of their loved one's death. Economic damages may include but are not limited to:

• compensation for medical expenses
• funeral and burial costs;
• loss of financial support; and
• the value of household services provided by the deceased.

Non-economic damages, on the other hand, may cover the emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship, guidance, and consortium experienced by the family members due to the untimely death of their loved one. 

An important thing to keep in mind is that these damages are not written in stone; the unique circumstances of your case will determine what you may be entitled to.

To prove wrongful death, you’ll need as much evidence as possible. The goal is to demonstrate that the death was caused by the negligence or wrongful actions of another party.

This evidence may include:

• Medical records
• Witness statements
• Accident reports
• Photographs or videos of the incident scene
• Expert testimony
• Any other relevant documentation that supports your claim
