What Are Some Examples of Wrongful Death?
Wrongful death occurs due to someone's negligence or intentional actions. Some common examples include fatalities resulting from car accidents caused by reckless or drunk driving, medical malpractice leading to patient deaths, or workplace accidents due to unsafe conditions or even employer negligence. Such claims can also arise from defective products, dangerous premises, or even certain criminal acts, such as assault or murder.
What If the Victim Is Being Blamed for Their Death?
It’s not unusual for the other party to try to blame the victim for the death in question. That’s usually a strategy to avoid liability.
You should consider getting your case reviewed by a wrongful death expert from our team. This decision can help protect their rights and reputation.
The focus of such a case should be on holding the responsible party accountable for their actions rather than unjustly placing blame on the deceased.
Because we have access to powerful legal resources, including a team of experts in different fields, our Raleigh wrongful death attorney can help investigate the circumstances surrounding the death and hold those responsible accountable.
How Can I Prove Wrongful Death?
Proving wrongful death requires access to powerful legal resources, something Morgan and Morgan attorneys are known for. We can utilize our resources to demonstrate that the death was caused by someone else's negligence, recklessness, or intentional wrongdoing.
In a nutshell, this process involves showing that the defendant:
- owed a duty of care to the deceased;
- breached that duty through their actions or inaction, and
- directly caused the death as a result.
To prove these three important elements, we may need to collect evidence such as medical records, witness statements, and expert testimony.
