Wrongful Death in Metairie, Louisiana

Wrongful death is a legal term to describe a death that should not have happened. A wrongful death claim makes the assertion that someone has died because of the misconduct or negligence of an individual or individuals and that the survivors of the deceased are entitled to financial compensation because of that death.

A wrongful death can be the result of an automobile or truck accident, a criminal assault in a shopping mall parking lot, medical or surgical malpractice, a fall, nursing home abuse or a work-related injury all resulting in death.

A wrongful death claim is a very complex matter to prove, since evidence must be gathered to support the claim, possible witnesses must be interviewed and deposed and medical records, police reports and expert testimony must be obtained. An experienced wrongful death attorney will assist you in the process by protecting your legal rights and making certain justice is served.

If you live in Metairie, Louisiana or the surrounding area and someone you love has died because of the misconduct or negligence of another individual, please contact the experienced wrongful death lawyers at the Metairie, Louisiana office of The Cochran Firm today to schedule a confidential consultation, at no cost to you to protect your legal rights and obtain the financial compensation you deserve.
