Fatal Accidents, Loss and Legal Recovery
When a loved one dies because of the negligent actions of another — family members are left devastated.
In the aftermath of wrongful death, most people need answers and guidance to help them regain some sense of stability in their lives. At the same time, they also need someone who can explain what their legal rights and options are — and someone who can protect those rights so that they are free to focus their attention on the grieving process and on spending time with family.
At the Law Offices of Renee J. Nordstrand, we pursue wrongful death lawsuits on behalf of families in the Santa Barbara and Los Angeles areas of Southern California. We help our clients recover full compensation for both economic and emotional losses and in fact, have been successfully accomplishing this goal on behalf of clients since 1993.
Today, we encourage you to talk to us about your rights and options during a free consultation and to let our attorneys fight for you and your family.
How We Can Help
When we accept a wrongful death case, we aggressively pursue compensation and guide families in recovering from the loss so that they can move forward with their lives. Although most cases settle before trial, insurance companies are more likely to settle a case for maximum compensation if they know they are facing a trial lawyer with experience, and resources. We are well prepared on both accounts.
When we try a case we have expert economists calculate the financial impact of the death on the family. They estimate the value of a spouse's lost earnings as well as non-economic contribution to the home. Similarly, when a surviving family member needs to hire someone to help with childcare, grocery shopping, and other daily chores, they are also entitled to compensation for the cost of these services.
Last, we do understand and are sensitive to the fact that losing a loved one is not something any amount of money can "fix." We know that the deeper costs, truer costs — the human cost of a wrongful death and its effect on a family are much more difficult to measure. However, our law firm does use its resources to ensure that those losses are compensated as fairly and as fully as possible in every case.
