When a loved one is taken from you too soon, it tears a family apart. There is never anything that can replace a spouse, parent, or child. The loss is felt by the entire family, as the remaining members of the family struggle to fill the void that is left behind. Providing a secure future for your family can be a crushing weight. If your loved one was lost because of the negligent actions of another, please contact the attorneys at Leesfield & Partners. We help the families of wrongful death accident victims in Key West to seek the maximum compensation that is due them for the untimely loss of their family member. In Key West, large numbers of tourists and locals mix together in many potentially dangerous ways. Automobile accidents cause many wrong full deaths each year on the busy, narrow roadways of Key West. Wrongful death accidents can happen on boats, when boaters are unaware of unsafe local conditions, or other boats crash into them. Another common cause of wrongful deaths in Key West is wave runner use. Faulty machines, unsafe boaters, and unsafe waterways can cause the use of wave runner watercraft to turn deadly. Pedestrians are also at risk for wrongful death accidents when drunk drivers get behind the wheel, or tourists are paying more attention to the scenery than the road.
The Families of Wrongful Death Victims Have Rights Under Florida LawIf you have lost a loved one in an automobile accident, boating or wave runner accident, pedestrian accident, or any other type of wrongful death accident in Key West, we want to help you. The families of accident victims in Key West have put their trust in us, and we always fight to aggressively represent them in every way.
The survivors of wrongful death accidents have rights under Florida law. If a child loses a parent due to the negligence of another, that person can be held monetarily responsible for compensating the child and ensuring them the same financial protection that the missing parent would have. A spouse who is deprived of their life partner is likewise entitled to support and compensation. Immediate family members of wrongful death accident victims may seek this monetary compensation in a civil court in Key West. The wrongful death lawyers at Leesfield & Partners can help you through every step of this painful process, and help your grieving family to seek justice.
