Facing the death of a loved one is one of the hardest things to do. Regardless of how strong you are, it can be life changing and heart breaking to discover that someone you love has been killed. Finding out that the death could have been prevented can make an already hard situation even harder.
There is no greater injustice than having a loved one taken too soon, especially when the death was preventable. At Bye, Goff and Rohde we offer support, strength and legal service to those that are facing this tragedy. There is hope for a brighter and better tomorrow. The answer may lie in filing a wrongful death lawsuit.
Wrongful death occurs if the death is the result of another party’s negligence, carelessness or inattention including:
- motor vehicle accidents, especially those involving speeding, reckless driving or drinking and driving
- electrical shock
- medical malpractice and medical mistakes
- dangerous products
- exposure to toxic chemicals
Whether the loved one is a spouse, a child, a parent, a relative or a friend, discovering the circumstances surrounding the death that did not need to happen can flip your already broken world upside down. When someone you love dies due to negligence by another party or person, then there is a sense of injustice and anger added to your already whirlwind of emotions.

- a loss of companionship and support
- a loss of inheritance and trust funds for your children
