Wrongful Death of a Spouse

The loss of a spouse is a devastating experience that no spouse should have to go through. For a spouse, there is no amount of money that can compensate for the tremendous loss and grief they are experiencing. However, it is important that the party that caused a spouse's death be held completely responsible. With the utmost commitment, the Law Offices of Michael Cordova will assume the responsibility to assist families through this difficult time and will prepare the strongest possible case against the negligent party.

After suffering the loss of a spouse, it is important to save all items of sentimental value related to your loved one. These items include family photos, videos, marriage certificate, birthday cards, letters, and their wedding ring. These are the types of items that our Wrongful Death Lawyers use to help demonstrate to the insurance company and, if necessary, the jury the tremendous loss that you and your family has suffered.

Wrongful Death Factors

Wrongful death cases have different factors if the death of a loved one is a spouse. When the court determines compensation, age and life expectancy are vitally important. They will also determine future earnings for an adult who has had consistent employment. Additionally, the court will consider the impact of the loss of income on the loved one's spouse and family. Realistically, a jury will never be able to measure a person's worth; however, the jury will try to quantify and compensate for the loss in the best manner possible.
