Wrongful Death Attorneys Portland

Losing someone that you love is never an easy situation and losing them due to the irresponsibility or carelessness of another person is especially difficult. Processing the grief and the anger is a daily struggle. Trying to move through each day in one piece is just about the only thing that you can keep your mind on. Taking legal action against the at-fault party is probably the furthest thing from your mind, however, it is important to remember that you could be entitled to financial remuneration for your loss. While a settlement could never bring your loved one back, it could make putting the pieces back together significantly easier.

The loss of your loved one may have left you with significant medical bills, not to mention the loss of their income for your family. The person responsible for taking all of that from you should be brought to justice and held morally and financially responsible. At Shlesinger & deVillenueve, we keep your best interests in mind and are committed to helping you through this traumatic time; we will make sure you receive the respect and compensation you deserve!

A wrongful death case can be brought if a person or entity’s negligent or reckless actions end in a fatality, or injuries that eventually lead to a fatality. For the most part, wrongful death cases can be traced back to a personal injury of some kind.

Some of the personal injury circumstances that lead to wrongful death include:

• Premises Liability: serious physical injuries that result in death, or an immediate death that occurs on public or private properties
• Product Liability: defective and/or dangerous products which, when used, cause serious physical injuries that result in death, or immediate death

• Vehicle Accidents: serious physical injuries that result in death, or immediate death that is caused by any kind of moving vehicle
• Medical Malpractice: impairment and/or affliction that results in death, or immediate death that is caused by medical error or medical negligence on the part of any kind of health care provider.
