Wrongful Death
No case can undo the loss of a loved one. What a wrongful death claim can do is hold the responsible party accountable and secure the financial support a family is entitled to during an impossible time.
Supporting Families Through an Impossible Time
Under Texas law, a wrongful death claim allows a surviving spouse, children, or parents to seek compensation when a loved one's death was caused by another party's negligence or wrongful act — whether that's a car or trucking collision, a defective product, a property hazard, or a toxic exposure.
Jason handles these cases with the seriousness they deserve: a thorough investigation into how and why the death occurred, careful documentation of the financial and personal loss involved, and a steady hand guiding the family through a legal process most people never expected to face.
What a Claim May Recover
- Lost income & future earning capacity
- Medical & funeral expenses
- Loss of care, companionship & guidance
- Mental anguish
- Loss of inheritance
- Punitive damages, in appropriate cases
Understanding a Wrongful Death Claim
Who Can File
In Texas, a surviving spouse, children, and parents of the deceased may bring a wrongful death claim; the estate may separately bring a survival action.
Time Limits Apply
Texas generally allows two years from the date of death to file — but evidence should be preserved immediately, well before any deadline.
No Fee Unless We Recover
Consultations are free, and there's no attorney's fee unless compensation is recovered for the family.
