The loss of a loved one can be one of the most trying times of your life. When your family member’s death was caused by another party’s negligence, the mourning process is intensified.

Attorney Ranallo and the wrongful death lawyers at the Law Offices of Jason M. Ranallo, P.C are ready to answer your questions, evaluate your case, and fight to hold the responsible party accountable.

Common Causes of Wrongful Death

Seeing yourself or your loved one suffer due to someone else’s negligence is difficult, and losing them is worse. Wrongful death cases can arise as a result of:

• Motor vehicle crashes
• Medical errors
• Defective products
• Workplace accidents
• Animal attacks
• Slip and fall injuries/premises liability
• Construction accidents

We at the Law Offices of Jason M. Ranallo, P.C have handled a myriad of wrongful death cases in Massachusetts, always keeping your best interests at the forefront.

What can you claim compensation for?

No amount of money can compensate for the loss of a loved one, but a successful wrongful death claim offers financial reassurance to survivors. The wrongful death lawyers at the Law of Offices of Jason M. Ranallo in Canton, MA can help you receive compensation for the following:

• Missing income of the deceased person. This consists of the complete value the deceased member would have earned during their lifetime.
• Damages covering emotional suffering and the guidance and advice to deal with it.
• Full value of expenses such as funeral and burial expenses.
• Survival action can be recovered in some cases as well. This allows family members to recover money for medical bills and other losses.

There are limitations to Massachusetts’ compensation rules related to wrongful death cases, however. Call the Law Offices of Jason M. Ranallo, P.C today, and we can discuss the necessary steps to pursuing the full range of damages related to the death of your loved one.

How can you file a wrongful death claim in Massachusetts?

According to Massachusetts law, a wrongful death claim can be filed only by the ‘Personal Representative’ of the deceased person’s estate.
