If a loved one has been killed as a result of someone else’s fault, you may have cause to pursue a wrongful death claim. By definition, a wrongful death is when someone is killed due to the misconduct or negligence of another party. Such actions can be brought against an individual, a company or a government. A wrongful death claim is a civil action, meaning that apart from any criminal action that might be taken, this claim is generally for monetary retribution and compensation.

A wrongful death claim may be your primary method of obtaining the financial compensation you need and deserve in order to mitigate the loss of an important family provider. Compensation would attempt to make up for the financial contributions that family member would likely have provided if they had not died.

Wrongful death could result from a car accident or accidents that don’t involve a motor vehicle.

A wrongful death claim is sometimes the only way to ensure that the appropriate party or parties acknowledge their actions (or lack of actions) that led to the death of your loved one.

Personal Injury & ICBC Claims Testimonials

I contacted Mr. McMullan due to a personal injury claim regarding a vehicle collision, that resulted in my requiring back surgery. My case was complex as I had previously suffered unrelated injuries and surgeries. The issues were to differentiate the result of previous injuries from the current situation. Mr. McMullan handled my case with professionalism and compassion. He took the stress of dealing with the insurance company completely off my shoulders and held my interests to the highest regard. The staff at Campbell, Burton and McMullan are of the highest caliber. I will definitely refer anyone requiring legal services to this firm.

My wife and I were involved in a serious motor vehicle accident in which we sustained multiple injuries and our car was destroyed. Thanks to a referral, we contacted Rick McMullan with the law firm Campbell, Burton & McMullan LLP and he agreed to represent us in our dealings with ICBC. Mr. McMullan immediately impressed us with his knowledge and experience in dealing with ICBC, which allowed us to concentrate on healing and getting our life back on track. We eventually settled both of our claims and were very pleased with the manner in which our claims were handled as well as the final settlement. Mr. McMullan and his staff were always very professional, caring and supportive throughout the entire process. We would heartily recommend Mr. McMullan and his firm as their level of knowledge, experience, respect and compassion were all exemplary.
