Wrongful Death

Texas Wrongful Death Attorney

Losing a loved one is always devastating and when your spouse, child, sibling or parent has died unnecessarily, your loss may be all the more difficult to accept. If someone else’s negligence caused the death, you need an experienced personal injury death attorney to fight for full and fair compensation.

At the Texas Law Offices of Michael R. De La Paz, we help grieving families discover the truth behind the death of their loved ones and hold liable parties accountable for their actions.

Source of Wrongful Death Cases

Wrongful death cases arise from accidents of every sort including, but not limited to:


Pursuing a wrongful death claim will not bring your loved one back, and any compensation you may receive will never fill the void your loss created. But your decision to take legal action against negligent parties can protect the lives of others. If your family member died in a construction accident, for example, your actions can ensure that the unsafe conditions and activities are stopped and that the working conditions are brought into compliance with safety laws.

The Law Limits the Time You Have to File a Lawsuit

Though it can be difficult, it is important to speak with a personal injury and wrongful death lawyer as soon as possible after an accident. By doing so, your attorney can obtain and preserve invaluable evidence related to the fatal accident, including witness testimonies, accident scene information and any machinery or products involved. With pertinent information in hand, a thorough investigation can be initiated. The facts behind your loved one’s death are used to build a case to hold liable parties responsible parties for their negligence.
