Lubbock Wrongful Death Lawyer

Have you lost a loved one in Lubbock because of someone’s negligence? Even if you only believe that a loved one’s passing was wrongful, a wrongful death lawyer serving Lubbock from our firm can explore your options.

D.Miller & Associates, PLLC® is a full-service law firm. You can leave the entire legal process to us while you spend time with your family.

We Encourage You To Consider Prompt Legal Help

You can take all the time in the world you need to grieve. However, you have a limited time to pursue legal action via the civil court system. Texas law notes that you generally have two years to file a lawsuit. This period begins from the date of your loved one’s passing––not from the date of their accident.

Some factors may even shorten your filing period. For instance, if you want to sue a government agency, you could have less than one year to file. When you connect with our team, we can discuss your case’s filing deadline, along with your other concerns.

What Are the Recoverable Damages in a Lubbock Wrongful Death Case?

Recoverable damages in your wrongful death case may include:

  • Pain and suffering: Pain and suffering accounts for your mental trauma after losing a loved one. Texas law generally does not limit how much you can seek for pain and suffering.
  • Non-economic losses: In addition to pain and suffering, a wrongful death can cause several other non-economic damages. The loss of companionship, parental guidance, and household contributions are all recoverable losses.
  • Lost financial support: This damage may be especially substantial if the decedent was a primary wage earner. If you have lost any form of financial support because of a wrongful death in Lubbock, we’ll seek a financial recovery that reflects that lost support.
  • Funeral expenses: Liable parties may cover your loved one’s funeral service and burial, which can be quite expensive.
  • End-of-life medical expenses. Your loved one may have required health care before their passing. Financial recovery can account for hospice, life support, and other related costs.

Our team will consider the entire picture of your loved one’s passing. If they passed away from a car accident, we may seek coverage for property damage. Details, including the cause of your loved one’s passing, matter.
