Wrongful Death Claims

Our attorneys represent families who have lost a loved one in wrongful death claims. The unexpected death of a loved one is a traumatic and heart breaking experience. Our attorneys are here to help you and your family.  When your loved one’s death was caused by someone else’s careless, negligent, or intentional actions, you have the right to bring a wrongful death action under Connecticut law.

Connecticut’s wrongful death statute, C.G.S. Sec. 52-555 creates a cause of action for wrongful death.  Pursuant to the statute, the decedent through her estate is entitled to receive “just damages”.  Just damages include the lost of life, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, mental suffering, loss of the enjoyment of life’s activities, medical expenses, funeral expenses, and hospital expenses.
