If you are mourning the loss of a loved one, the last thing you want to consider is that this tragedy could have been prevented. Unfortunately, too often, lives are cut short because of the neglect, malpractice or reckless behavior of others.

If your loved one died as a result of an automobile accident, including hit-and-run accidents, drunk driving accidents and large truck accidents, you may be able to recover monetary damages. Of course, no financial compensation can recover a life lost, but who will care for your loved one’s dependents? How much life did he or she have left to live? A wrongful death claim may help you answer these questions.

If your loved one was the victim of medical malpractice, and lost his or her life, it is only right that survivors receive compensation for their losses, both financial and emotional. We trust our doctors and hospitals to keep us well, and medical malpractice abuses that trust, sometimes at a high price.

No matter the conditions of the wrongful death claim, you need experienced and trusted legal counsel to guide you through the process. Contact the Law Offices of James O. Cunningham, P.A. today to start on the road to recovering your future.

In the state of Florida, there are very stringent rules regarding wrongful death claims, and time is of the essence because of the short statute of limitations on these types of claims. It is essential that you retain qualified counsel as soon as possible after the loss of a loved one.

Only personal representatives named in the deceased’s last will and testament may file a wrongful death claim. Victims of wrongful death cases too often are young and in the prime of their lives, and many people may depend on them. Since they are often young, they often do not have a last will and testament. In this case, a personal representative must be assigned. This process eats away at the time you have to file a wrongful death claim. A legal team can give you a greater chance of recovering the compensation owed to you.

Call the Law Offices of James O. Cunningham, P.A. at 407-537-4520 now to schedule a free consultation to discuss your wrongful death case. You need a skilled Orlando wrongful death lawyer to work hard for you.
