Brief Overview of Illinois Wrongful Death Law

A wrongful death case involves the death of a person by the actions of someone, or the failure to act. Since the person involved is deceased, a wrongful death suit is a civil case as opposed to a criminal action and is brought by family members or estate representatives of the deceased. Damages can be assessed based on many factors: loss of wages, loss of benefits, loss of companionship, as well as emotional pain and suffering caused by the trauma. That’s why you need the Janssen Law Team on your side.

At the Janssen Law Center, we understand the intricacies of filing a wrongful death suit, including applicable expiration dates. Our legal team has the experience to successfully navigate the legal system in order to get you the compensation you deserve. As always, there’s no charge to discuss a case, and we have the financial resources necessary to see your case through to the end.
