Kingman Wrongful Death Attorney

Our firm prides itself on helping clients in need. We handle many different case types, but wrongful death cases are undoubtedly among the most important. Cases simply have an added weight and importance when we are seeking justice for the loss of life. As you decide whether to hire a wrongful death attorney, you should consider that:

• Grieving and responsibilities don’t generally mix well: Some of the potential symptoms of grief (which we have seen firsthand) include cognitive disturbance, lack of energy, depression, and despair. These and other grief-related symptoms can be overwhelming, and facing stress may make these symptoms worse. When you’re mourning a loss, it may not be in your best interests to take on the stress or responsibility that a wrongful death case brings.
• You likely have one opportunity to see financial justice done: Our civil justice system generally affords plaintiffs one chance to get a financial recovery related to a wrongful death. Once you sign a settlement deal or complete your case in court, that’s likely it. You may elect to make the very most of your opportunity, and that can mean hiring a Kingman wrongful death attorney from our team.
• Those responsible for wrongful deaths often fight claims against them: Those responsible for the cost of wrongful deaths—including insurance companies—are not always as compassionate or ethical as we would like. They often fight aggressively to avoid paying for plaintiffs’ and claimants’ losses. This means that wrongful death cases are rarely easy, especially for those who have little to no experience in these high-stakes matters.
• Wrongful death cases take time (and effort): There is nothing simple about completing a wrongful death case, especially if you’re resolved to secure a positive outcome. Our team is ready to put in the work, time, and effort your case requires.

Feelings of helplessness are one of the potential responses to a loss. Help is here, though, and we ask that you accept the hand Big Chad Law is extending to you.

When he founded the firm, Attorney Chad Schaub set out to create something different. He knew it was possible to build a firm that genuinely cared about clients while getting life-changing financial results. That’s the mission at Big Chad Law.

This combination of compassionate relationships with our clients and an aggressive approach to our opponents is ideal in wrongful death cases. Choose your Kingman wrongful death attorney from our firm because:

Our office in Kingman means that it’s our home. This is important for a few reasons that include:

• When you work in a community daily (as we do), you develop a close connection with residents and visitors, and you take wrongful deaths personally
• Being in the place where a case takes place can be critical to securing time-sensitive evidence, helping the client get the resources they need, meeting with the client in person, and handling other critical aspects of the case

We care about Kingman, know Kingman, and we believe we are the most qualified team to lead your wrongful death case in Kingman.

When you are seeking justice for the tragic loss of a loved one, you don’t need someone untested or green. You deserve a legal team that has been here before, and that’s us.

Our experience leading many wrongful death cases means:

• While we know the loss you’ve suffered is unique, we know the kind of devastation that wrongful deaths can cause
• Our attorneys know the steps required to successfully complete a wrongful death case
• We have encountered many challenges specific to wrongful death cases, and we are practiced in overcoming those challenges
• Your Kingman wrongful death lawyer will not be caught off guard or intimidated at any point in your case

We advise you to find a lawyer with experience that will benefit them when leading your case. The attorneys at Big Chad Law fit this criteria.

Our firm ensures that hiring an attorney will not cause you any added stress. When you choose Big Chad Law as your law firm, you:

• Are not going to pay any upfront fees, administrative fees, or other case-related expenses
• Know that Big Chad Law is going to cover all costs associated with your case
• Trust that we will make sound investments to improve your case, including fees to hire any experts who can benefit your claim or lawsuit

We are in a fortunate position. Because of our success as a law firm, we don’t have to sweat clients for upfront fees. Instead, we take the pressure off our clients and tie our fee to the results we achieve.

We use a common type of agreement known as a contingency fee. Rather than getting a fee regardless of the outcome of your case, we will be paid based on whether we secure compensation for you.

If we negotiate a settlement or obtain a financial verdict for you, your Kingman wrongful death lawyer will receive their fee as a percentage of the recovery. This is a fair arrangement, preventing you from paying out of pocket for your attorney.

When clients hire us, they are extending their trust. We reward this trust in us by treating you like family. In other words, we will provide both the best legal representation and the most attentive service we can. Some hallmarks of our above-and-beyond client service include:

• Regular updates about your case
• Communication during any lulls in your case, which shows you we are always working to resolve the case—even during times when we must wait on developments outside of our control
• Concerning ourselves with your grieving process, which may mean speaking with you and collaborating with any mental health service providers you are seeing
• A listening ear whenever you need it (including at the beginning of your case, when you will tell us about the circumstances of your loved one’s passing and what their loss has cost you)

Every case requires urgency. Due to the high stakes of a wrongful death claim, and the need for you to face the grieving process without distraction, your case may be particularly pressing. Call Big Chad Law today at (928) 753-1830. We will discuss your case, answer your questions, and lay out the steps ahead.

Wrongful deaths are often preventable deaths. If someone’s actions, or their failure to act, led to your loved one’s passing, then you may have grounds to hold negligent parties accountable.

Let’s look a bit closer at what qualifies as a wrongful death. We must focus on negligence, which refers to someone’s failure to act as a reasonable person would have. Someone is negligent when they:

• Have a duty of care to someone else, just as a motor vehicle operator, property owner, medical professional, and many others (who can become defendants in wrongful death cases) do
• Do not live up to their duty of care, meaning they do not act in a reasonable manner
• Cause harm through their breach of duty of care, which can include causing a traffic accident, injuring a patient, or failing to clean up a slipping hazard (as just a few examples of breaches of duty of care that can prove fatal)

When someone breaches their duty of care, they often cause harm to others. In the most tragic cases, this harm includes the loss of life. As we review the details of your loved one’s passing, we will look for the hallmarks of negligence and explain whether your loved one’s death was wrongful.

This is a quick reminder that we are going to create a case strategy for you that is 100% original. Each client we represent are unique people who have lost unique loved ones and are facing unique challenges—we don’t believe in cookie-cutter approaches to wrongful death cases.

That being said, we have experience with wrongful death cases. Based on that experience, we expect that your case will require us to:

Several types of evidence may help us show your loved one died in a wrongful manner, and that may include:

• Testimony from anyone who witnessed their passing
• Any other witness with relevant testimony (even if they did not see a fatal event)
• Expert testimony about who is responsible for the fatal circumstances
• Relevant photographs and videos

Our network of experts can be immensely helpful during this stage of your case, as their testimony can help us prove that negligence caused your loved one’s passing.

When your Kingman wrongful death lawyer determines who is at fault for your loved one’s death, they can then determine who is financially responsible for your damages. Insurance companies and those directly responsible for the wrongful death will be among those we consider for liability.

Your attorney is going to rely on your account to determine how your loved one’s passing has negatively affected you. We will also conduct our own due diligence and may secure documentation of your damages, including:

• A mental health professional’s explanation of how the loss has affected you
• Your own testimony about grief, depression, financial hardship, and any other harm you’ve suffered because of the at-fault party’s negligence
• Relevant financial records, which may include invoices for funeral services and bank statements indicating lost financial support (such as the loss of the decedent’s income)

Documentation is unique to each case. We will obtain all available evidence illustrating the cost of your losses.

Big Chad Law never advises clients to accept a settlement offer unless the deal is undeniably fair. We also negotiate tenaciously to secure such fair deals.

Though wrongful death cases often involve intense emotions, settling can be the ideal outcome for plaintiffs who want to move on from their legal case as soon as possible.

If your case involves a lawsuit, trial, or any other legal proceedings, we will represent you. Our firm prepares each case like it’s going to trial, so we will not waste time in taking all necessary legal action.

Each person who loses their life in a wrongful manner is a unique person of value. We will listen intently to you and conduct our own investigation of your damages, which may include:

• Loss of consortium
• Lost financial support
• Pain and suffering
• Funeral costs
• Medical costs

We will not be surprised if you have additional damages, as the ripple effect of a wrongful death’s harm can extend far and wide.
