Time is of the essence in wrongful death cases.

Preserving evidence and your rights requires early legal intervention. There is a short statute of limitations regarding the filing of a wrongful death claim – 2 years. There are also specific limitations on the types of damages that may be recovered and by whom. Our firm will guide you in efficiently and effectively moving forward within this legal framework.
