Towson Wrongful Death Lawyer
Handling Catastrophic Injury and Fatal Accident Claims in Maryland Since 1974
When a fatal accident occurs, it is essential that the needs of surviving family members are met. Those needs include the need for supportive and caring legal help, and the need for compensation of a devastating loss.
Since 1974, numerous families have entrusted their legal needs to attorney Leslie L. Gladstone following fatal accidents. Mr. Gladstone, along with Karen M. Authement, is skilled in obtaining financial compensation in both types of actions resulting from someone's death:
- Survival actions. In a survival action, the estate of the deceased can receive compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills and loss of income.
- Wrongful death actions. In a wrongful death action, immediate family members, including parents, spouses, children and siblings, can bring suit for emotional loss following a fatal accident caused by another's negligence.
We are experienced in skillfully accomplishing the steps needed to prove the extent of loss experienced by family members in wrongful death cases. For instance, when working to prove economic losses, we work with economists to accurately calculate the present value of earnings, the present value of future loss and other economic loss. When determining the value of emotional loss, we present testimony from the family, which illustrates the important role the deceased filled in survivors' lives and the contributions the deceased made to family members' lives.
Insurers will likely claim your wrongful death case is worth a small fraction of its actual potential worth. Do not sell yourself short. Instead, obtain effective legal help from a legal team that can handle your entire case, while providing understanding legal assistance.
