Wisconsin Wrongful Death Attorneys and Accidental Death Lawyers

There’s no greater injustice than having a loved one taken too soon.
Attorneys at Bye, Goff & Rohde seek justice when a death could have been prevented.

Losing a loved one is devastating. However, when a spouse, child, or relative dies because of another party’s carelessness or negligence, there’s an acute sense of injustice: it didn’t need to happen. In these cases, you may be able to receive compensation through a wrongful death claim against the parties responsible for your loss.

The Wisconsin Wrongful Death Lawyers at Bye, Goff & Rohde understand the pain an untimely death can cause.

We know that compensation will never replace the person you’ve lost, but the parties at fault need to be held accountable. Our attorneys combine compassion and determination to earn a settlement that provides for your immediate and long-term needs.

Types of wrongful death cases
In Wisconsin, an accidental or wrongful death is caused by another party’s negligence, carelessness, or inattention. Examples of a wrongful death could include:

• Motor vehicle accidents
• Exposure to chemicals or dangerous substances
• Dangerous products
• Medical mistakes
• Construction accidents

If you’re not sure if your situation applies, do not hesitate to call our River Falls office at 1.800.607.3030. One of our experienced accidental death attorneys will review your case.

Wisconsin wrongful death cases can be complex.
In Wisconsin, wrongful death lawsuits are governed by strict liability statutes and time limits. Unlike personal injury cases, only a surviving spouse or administer of the estate can file a claim. In addition, if you fail to observe deadlines, your case could be dismissed even if it’s valid.

What you should do.
Your family shouldn’t be dealt additional pain because you’ve missed a deadline or have trouble navigating wrongful death statutes. Our personal injury lawyers believe that you should be compensated for the untimely death of your loved one, and we’ll work tirelessly to secure a just outcome. Do not delay: contact a Wisconsin Accident Attorney at Bye, Goff & Rohde immediately.
