Losing a family member or loved one to an untimely and wrongful death, is an emotionally devastating experience for all involved. This careless action on the part of another or business can not only cause intense emotional grief, but can lead to financial hardships as well.
At Terrell Hogan Law we extend our deepest condolences to those who have suffered such a tragic loss. We understand how emotionally difficult it is to consider taking legal action over a loved one’s death. Since 1974, the attorneys at Terrell Hogan Law have been representing victims of a wrongful death claim. We are skilled trial attorneys ready to provide you with the support and information you need to make this decision as easy as possible.
A death is considered a wrongful death when it is the result of someone else’s negligence, and can occur in any type of accident including a boating accident, car accident, motorcycle accident, truck and semi-truck accident, bicycle accident, pedestrian accident, medical mistake, defective product, asbestos exposure, or can occur at work or in a place of business. When something like this happens there are a lot of questions that need to be answered. At Terrell Hogan Law we are here to help guide you through the process and represent those who are not here to represent themselves.
The majority of wrongful death cases that we deal with, are transportation-related fatalities, but not all are. In 2021 alone, 315 individuals died in work related accidents and 1000’s more deaths occurred due to premises and product liabilities involving victims of all ages. Medical mistakes and defective products also cause or contribute to untimely deaths and we are equipped to handle any wrongful death case that comes to our attention.
We also specialize in mesothelioma, asbestosis and lung cancer cases brought about by asbestos exposure. One of the greatest wrongs perpetrated upon the American worker by companies who knew full well the dangers of asbestos, but chose profits over the lives of their workers.
With over 3500 deaths occurring on Florida’s streets and highways each year, many are the result of innocent victims dying at the hands of negligent actions. Our legal team has been representing wrongful death cases for over 50 years and our resolve is to make right what others have made wrong. Of all the personal injury cases we handle, wrongful death cases are among the most critical in nature. There is no greater cause that a personal injury attorney can champion, than the cause of representing innocent deceased victim and their families. Losing a loved one or family member can have serious effect on all involved including mental, emotional and physical trauma, as well as the financial burden of an irreplaceable loss. When these deaths occur, because of the negligence of others, the victim’s families are entitled to seek damages.
