Wrongful Death
Representing Families in Wrongful Death Claims
McAllen Based Lawyer Serving South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley
When a family member is killed by the negligence of a business or another individual, there is usually little that the criminal justice system can do to help the family. The only way to hold someone accountable is through the civil justice system.
At the Law Office of Ricardo R. Godinez, P.C. in McAllen, Texas, we offer a free case evaluation to family members of fatality victims to discuss options in filing a wrongful death lawsuit.
We understand that money will never repay you for the loss of a loved one. Most of the clients we serve in wrongful death cases come to us because they want answers. They want to know why this happened and who was responsible. When a fatal accident occurs, family members rarely get answers from the responsible party. They rarely get to hear someone say he or she is sorry. As your lawyer, Mr. Godinez will attempt to get your family the answers you deserve.
The civil justice system can help bring closure for your family following the death of a loved one. It can also help the survivors obtain compensation for funeral expenses, medical expenses, counseling expenses, lost wages and loss of consortium.
Lawyer Ricardo Godinez is a former McAllen city commissioner who has recovered millions of dollars in compensation for his clients in South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley.
