Wrongful Death

Has your family suffered the tragic and unnecessary death
of a family member caused by the negligence of another?

Wrongful death cases may arise because of a variety of incidents, including car accidents and medical malpractice. Attorneys at the Law Office of Leslie L. Gladstone, P.A. want to make sure that the surviving family and the estate of the deceased are compensated for their loss to the fullest extent of the law.

In times of grief, family members are often unable to appreciate the importance of a prompt investigation of the circumstances of death and the preservation of evidence. These matters are extremely important in determining how and why the incident occurred and identifying the persons legally responsible for the incident.

Pursuing a wrongful death action will obviously not bring your loved one back to you, but it will ensure that you and your children will have some semblance of justice and increased financial security in the years to come. The Law Office of Leslie L. Gladstone, P.A. has successfully represented many families suffering from the wrongful death of a loved one. Let us take care of this important matter for your family.

We do not charge an attorney fee for personally consulting with you about your injury case. Many people do not have the money to hire a personal injury lawyer to protect their rights. You probably didn't have this unexpected injury figured into your budget. Now you have high medical bills, probably lost wages, and many other financial worries caused by this situation. It is unfair for these obstacles to prevent you from obtaining the full amount you are due under the law in just compensation for your injuries.

Don't just take the first offer of settlement from the insurance company if it doesn't fully compensate you for your loss and protect you from future complications. Protecting your rights is important to us. That's the reason we cover all expenses until the end of a case and then we are paid the expenses advanced out of funds recovered. If we are unable to recover compensation for you, you do not owe us a fee. This is called a "contingency fee" arrangement and is common among Maryland personal injury attorneys.

Attorneys often put up large sums of money on these complex cases in order to hire experts, take depositions, gather evidence and oppose the lawyers of large insurance firms. The attorney you choose must be able to cover the expenses for such battles. Not only does the Law Office of Leslie L. Gladstone, P.A. have the resources, we have the experience, skill and dedication to successfully resolve your case.*

*The costs advanced are reimbursed to the attorney out of the proceeds of the settlement or verdict. If the case is lost (as sometimes does occur), the arrangements for reimbursement of costs advanced by the firm are then payable from the client, which payments can usually be arranged over a period of years. The contingent attorney's fees are based on the amount of the gross recovery or settlement received.
