Wrongful Death

Connecticut Wrongful Death Lawyers

If you have lost a loved one in Connecticut as the result of a fatal car accident or medical malpractice, or any other accident or violent act, the wrongful death attorneys at the Law Offices of Piazza & Simmons in Stamford would like to share valuable information with you at your free initial consultation. Contact the Law Offices of Piazza & Simmons to learn how we might be able to bring a wrongful death lawsuit and recover compensation.

When we agree to pursue a wrongful death claim, it is our job to demonstrate why the deceased person’s loved ones should be compensated for:

• Pain and suffering prior to death
• Post-mortem and funeral expenses
• Death itself, which is in effect a “total lack of health”
• The destruction of earning capacity
• The destruction of the capacity to carry on and enjoy life’s activities
• Other considerations such as whether the death resulted from reckless disregard, which Connecticut law says merits the award of double or treble damages
• Loss of affection and support

With more than 30 years of experience, our wrongful death lawyers understand the importance of giving every detail of your loved one’s accidental death claim its due attention.

For more information about how we can help you when you have lost a loved one in an accident or as the result of a violent act, see Attorney Anthony Piazza’s chapter on “Wrongful Death” in his book, Sue, Settle, or Be Silent?, or contact us to schedule a free consultation.
