Navigating A New Hampshire Wrongful Death Claim

Losing a loved one in a car accident due to someone else’s negligence is tragic and devastating. You may feel completely lost about what to do and how to hold the responsible person accountable for the harm they’ve caused.

At Goulden Law Offices, PLLC, our New Hampshire wrongful death attorneys handle these complex and emotional cases with the care and compassion they deserve. We will support you through the steps to seek compensation and justice for your lost loved one.

How Wrongful Death Works In New Hampshire

In New Hampshire, anyone with a legal interest in the deceased individual’s estate is eligible to file a wrongful death claim. This can include the decedent’s spouse, parents, children and other parties who have a valid claim in the decedent’s estate. If you’re considering pursuing a wrongful death claim, you have three years from the time of the death to file your claim, which is why it’s critical to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you’re eligible.

Wrongful death claims allow surviving family members the chance to seek justice for their loved one as well as compensation for:

• Medical expenses
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Any pain and suffering that the decedent suffered before death
• Loss of income
• Loss of companionship
• Loss of familial relationship

At Goulden Law Offices, PLLC, we aggressively advocate for families who have lost a loved one in a car accident. We understand the sensitive nature of these cases and how losing a loved one has impacted your lives in unexpected ways. While a wrongful death claim will not return your loved one to you, it may provide a sense of justice and cover the financial burden you may face after a loss.
