Wrongful Death

When someone is killed as a result of the negligence or misconduct of another person, family members need experienced counsel to make sure the person or entity responsible is held accountable for their loss and to minimize the financial trauma the death may cause.

At Cearley Law Firm, P.A. we have the knowledge and experience to help clients determine whether the death was the result of negligence or misconduct on the part of a third party, assess the full extent of the loss, and obtain a financial recovery that will help the survivors put their lives back together.

Some recent successes include recovery of $2.6 million from an oil refinery on behalf of the family of a 54 year old man killed in a refinery explosion; $1.25 million for the family of a 47 year old man who was killed due to negligence by a lumber mill and $500,000 against the driver in a hit-and-run accident that killed a 52 year old man.
