It is hard to imagine a more traumatic and life changing event than the death of a loved one.

As a family member and/or dependent of someone who was the victim of an accidental death, you are entitled to compensation through statute and/or the common law. These remunerations are designed to compensate you for your bereavement, as well as for the deceased’s economic losses as a result of their death. A damages award resulting from an accidental death can be large and complex, requiring the consideration of many factors.
