Wrongful Death Damages and West Virginia Statute of Limitations
Wrongful death and survivor claims are often the only form of financial security available after a devastating loss. Using our resources can help recover the maximum compensation possible. Depending on the facts of your case, we may seek:
- Medical Expenses
- Funeral and Burial Costs
- Pain and Suffering
- Loss of Inheritance
- General Damages
- Punitive Damages
- Loss of Anticipated Earnings of Your Loved One
- Loss of Benefits; such as healthcare, Social Security, income, and pensions
Through the period of overwhelming loss and mourning, there is still a strict deadline for filing a wrongful death claim. In most cases, a family member may only have two years from the date of death. Otherwise, the family may unintentionally forfeit the right to compensation.
