What Should the Loved Ones of Kevin Luu Do?

We at Sweet Lawyers understand that losing a loved one in a traffic accident is devastating. Especially, when it is a wrongful death case, wherein you need the help of legal experts to fight for you and get the justice your loved one deserves.

Legal experts play a crucial role in proving a wrongful death case by gathering evidence, conducting thorough investigations, and building a strong legal argument. They can also negotiate with insurance companies and represent the bereaved family in court, ensuring their rights are protected and they receive the compensation and justice they deserve.

However, know that in a wrongful death case, there is a time limit on which the bereaved can take legal action. These restrictions are called the statute of limitations. It will only allow you to file a wrongful death lawsuit for a certain amount of time, and when these expire, the legal claim is no longer valid. Thus, your loved ones can no longer file a lawsuit.

Missing the statute of limitations for a wrongful death lawsuit can have severe consequences. It means that the bereaved family will lose their opportunity to seek justice and hold the responsible party accountable. They will also be unable to receive the compensation they deserve for their loss, leaving them without the financial support they may desperately need.

Hence, the family must act promptly and consult legal experts to ensure they do not miss this important deadline.

When you hire us, our attorneys will do their best to ensure you get the maximum settlement. They will speak to witnesses and analyze evidence.
