Wrongful Death

Wrongful death

A wrongful death claim is applicable when a victim who would otherwise have a personal injury claim is killed as a result of either negligence or an intentional harmful act on the part of the defendant. Mr. Maples has brought in millions of dollars for the families of people killed due to the negligence of others. This can occur in a variety of situations, including:

When a victim is intentionally killed. For example, OJ Simpson was sued for wrongful death for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. The case was based on an intentional act.
