Greater Boston Wrongful Death and Probate Attorneys
Estate Administration After a Wrongful Death caused by Medical Malpractice, a Work Place Accident or by a Motor Vehicle
Don’t Know Where to Start?
Under Massachusetts law, in the aftermath of a wrongful death, the deceased’s estate has a right to bring a wrongful death action. To begin a claim a probate estate needs to be established.
The probate process, designed to ensure the orderly distribution of assets after death, can be a difficult process for surviving heirs, even under the best of circumstances. When the death was caused by the negligence or carelessness of another person, it is often more challenging.
The probate estate has a right to seek compensation and damages for:
• The lost income the decedent would have received in his or her life
• Loss of companionship or consortium
• Any unreimbursed medical expenses resulting from the accident (before death)
• Any pain and suffering experienced before death
• The costs of funeral and burial services
