Wrongful Death Lawyers

Bernard & Hart, Lafayette Louisiana and Orange Texas wrongful death lawyers, have years of experience representing those who have suffered the loss of a loved one. If a person in killed because of another person’s negligence or otherwise wrongful conduct, the deceased person’s heirs and other beneficiaries may file a wrongful death claim against those responsible. Negligence resulting in wrongful death can be the result of many factors such as malpractice, intentional acts, unintentional acts, or any action that cause an injury leading to death.

Bernard & Hart has been representing negligence victims for decades. We can help you with recovering damages that may include:

• loss of income the deceased would have provided in the future
• pain and suffering caused by the loss of moral support that would have been provided by the deceased
• hospital and medical care expenses
• funeral and burial expenses

State laws (statutes) define who may sue and what, if any, limits there are to the awarding of damages. Don't wait to file your claim.  There are limitations for the amount of time allowed to file a wrongful death claim.  If you don't file within the specified limitation period, you may permanently surrender your rights to recover damages for your case.

The trial lawyers of Bernard & Hart are experienced in handling wrongful death cases in Louisiana and Texas and can assist you in evaluating your personal situation.
