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

My appreciation goes to you all, especially Paul Seale my lawyer whom had been with on my side all the time. To me it is very harder job to be as a lawyer.

Jane M. (Langley)

I called CBM Lawyers the day after I got in my motor vehicle accident. Ashley called me back the same day and we made an appointment to discuss what happened. I was very scared and Ashley made me feel so comfortable. Throughout the process I felt safe and respected. She kept me informed about what was going on and I trusted her to be my voice. She always left every decision up to me but I always asked for her opinion as I knew she would always point me in the right direction. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and the amazing service I received from Ashley and CBM Lawyers as a whole. Her staff that I was in contact with were so nice and had no problem explaining to me the paperwork they were sending me. I can't tell you how much I appreciate everything they have done for me. Thank you so much!

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.
