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 was a pedestrian walking with my husband when I was hit from behind by a car. I suffered numerous injuries, including head injuries, that led me to seek the advice of a lawyer. I contacted CBM Lawyers and asked to talk to Richard McMullan who became my lawyer. Mr. McMullan and his staff were very professional, caring and supportive throughout the entire process. Emails and phone calls were always responded to quickly and with compassion. I know they did everything to help my claim and my process of healing. Without a doubt I heartily recommend CBM Lawyers. I thank them for all of the hard work they did on my behalf.

Richard McMullan represented me regarding my ICBC injury claim and during the time he was handling my case I found him to be very efficient, personable and professional. The staff working for Campbell, Burton & McMullan were also very pleasant and helpful and did not hesitate to answer any questions I may have had about my claim. I was very happy with how my injury claim was handled and the results Mr. McMullan obtained for me. If I’m ever in need of legal help again I would definitely contact Mr. McMullan to represent me.

S.R. (Langley)

I was a pedestrian hit from behind by a car and I suffered a number of injuries including serious head injuries. My fear that I would never be able to work again, and provide for my family, led me to seek the advice of a lawyer. On the recommendation of a friend I retained the firm of Campbell, Burton & McMullan. My lawyer was Mr. McMullan, and I was very impressed with him right from the start. He was always very attentive and responsive to my needs. He never failed to answer my phone calls, e-mails, and to meet with me whenever I requested a meeting. His knowledge and experience is also very impressive. He left no legal stone unturned to ensure a successful outcome to my case. I know that if I should ever again need legal advice of any sort I will use Campbell, Burton & McMullan and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
