Tragically, many people who are hurt in personal injury cases do not live long enough to seek justice on their own terms, and pass away from their injuries. However, that does not mean that there is no legal recourse left, because their loved ones can still sue the responsible parties on their behalf. This is known as a wrongful death lawsuit, and it is essential for holding people responsible when their carelessness winds up getting people killed.
The Shikh Law Firm has spent decades representing the loved ones of people who died as a result of someone else’s negligence. Not only do these cases often deprive people of their precious family members, causing substantial emotional distress, it can also result in them losing a source of income, or a critical provider who took care of children or other dependents. This can make an already horrific situation even more unbearable for the family members of the deceased.

- Auto accidents
