Our objective is to simplify the legal process for our clients, enabling them to concentrate on their personal healing while we focus on securing their legal rights.

Types of Wrongful Death Claims

In Lowell, wrongful death claims arise from a variety of incidents, each requiring a specialized approach to prove liability and recover damages. These include:

Medical Malpractice: This encompasses cases where death results from healthcare provider errors, such as misdiagnosis, incorrect treatment, or surgical mistakes. Demonstrating malpractice requires showing a deviation from accepted medical practices.
Vehicle Accidents: Fatal incidents involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, or pedestrians typically require establishing that negligent driving behaviors, like speeding or driving under the influence, directly caused the accident.
Workplace Incidents: In environments where occupational safety is critical, such as construction or manufacturing, employer negligence can lead to fatal accidents. Claims often focus on proving failures in safety protocol adherence.
Product Liability: When a product’s design or manufacturing defect leads to a fatality, manufacturers and distributors can be held accountable. These claims necessitate demonstrating that the product was inherently dangerous.
Premises Liability: Owners of residential or commercial properties can face claims if it is proven that unsafe conditions on their property led directly to a fatal accident.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim

In Massachusetts, the executor or administrator of the deceased’s estate is responsible for filing the wrongful death claim. This individual represents the interests of the estate and its beneficiaries, who typically include:

Spouses: Who can seek damages for loss of companionship and financial support.
Children: Particularly minors, who might be compensated for loss of parental care and emotional support.
Parents: In cases involving the death of a minor, parents may claim damages for the emotional impact and companionship loss.
Other Dependents: Those who were financially dependent on the deceased at the time of death may also have grounds to file a claim.

Accurately identifying eligible claimants and understanding their entitlements is essential for effectively managing a wrongful death claim.

What is the Statute of Limitations for Wrongful Death Cases in Massachusetts?

The statute of limitations for wrongful death claims in Massachusetts is three years from the date of the deceased’s death. This strict deadline means that actions must be taken promptly to secure the right to compensation. In cases where the cause of death was not immediately known, this period may begin at the date the cause was discovered, extending the opportunity to file.

Handling a wrongful death claim in Lowell demands not only legal acumen but also sensitivity to the grieving process. Our attorneys at Legal Rights Advocates provide empathetic and comprehensive support to ensure that families can navigate this difficult time with confidence and support. Operating on a contingency fee basis, we offer our services without requiring upfront payment, ensuring that all families have access to justice regardless of their current financial situation.

Absolutely top tier phenomenal service from Mark. Transparent, intelligent, interesting to talk to, and took my issues seriously from the very first call. He got spam calls to stop basically immediately, then handled the rest thoroughly and professionally without me doing basically anything. Definitely recommending this company and mark in the future to handle overbearing and toxic spam calls around debt.

Absolutely amazing! I came across these fine gentlemen and explain to them my situation with the financial ordeal I was facing. Immediately they got on the ball and needless to say, they got it done. I'm not going to get into my own personal details with it but the five stars should explain it all. These are one of the few lawyer's out there that are actually trustworthy. Not to mention they handled my case when I'm hundreds of miles away from their office. Almost forgot about that part. Thank you very much Mark & Scott! Keep up the good work!

Adam did a great job handling my case. Was able to get the loan dropped and now owe nothing. This company was very professional and did exactly what they said they would. Almost to good to be true!! Didn't actually believe it until I saw what they can do with my own 2 eyes. They really harrased me and kept calling over and over again. Stand up for your rights and let Adam handle your case!!! Did show up on my credit report as 4 missed payments which I did not expect because the loan was completely dropped but I am more than happy to take the hit on my credit report.

Mark and Legal Rights Advocates were amazing! To begin with Mark returned my call from the website on a Sunday! In less than 2 weeks they had prepared a letter for the company on my behalf and in less than 6 weeks ALL my issues with the credit card company that was harassing me for the last year were solved! This included getting a financial bonus and making sure the credit bureaus correct my credit score! Mark was completely professional and had exceptional follow-up! VERY impressed! Thanks again!

I definitely recommend Legal Rights Advocates. I was being harassed by my credit card company they were calling a minimum of 10 times a day on the hour even ever half hour at times. Only after getting advice from Mark G on what to say to my creditors the calls stopped. Mark G is very helpful and friendly. I especially like how he follows up to make sure you aren’t having issues with your creditors.

He was very professional, communication is amazing, readily available. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone I care about!! He actually cares about his clients and You can tell it's genuine even the sincerity in his voice, he was comforting after being threatened by a collection agent. Thank you again for making my day better.

I needed assistance with qualifying for my Social Security disability benefits. I reached out to Legal Rights Advocates, and I am so glad I did. They were experts at navigating through the Social Security Disability maze! They provided the representation and guidance I needed. I was approved for my disability benefits! I could not have done it without the help of Legal Rights Advocates. I would highly recommend their services if you need help getting your disability benefits.

I was forced to pay something in full, with false threats of me going to court if it’s not paid that same day, being told I was accused of fraud, etc. I kept trying to call the accusing company after seeing a post of people getting scammed with false threats of court. I accidentally called Mark because of what Google showed me as I was searching for that company. He asked me about the company and were specific things happening to me, I said yes confusingly. He told me what the accusing company did was illegal. He took on my case, emailed me documents, and a little over a month he got my fees and everything else waived by winning the case because what happened to me was wrong. It also caused A LOT of hardship having to pay the accusing company $1300+ instantly out of pocket the day I got the threats. Mark has also got me $500 back on top of everything being waived. I’m impressed, I’m thankful, I didn’t have to come out of pocket for ANYTHING and let me add I’m not even in the same state as him. He was also very friendly, knowledgeable and checked in with me to keep me updated. I would recommend him to anyone who was in the same situation as I when it came to a loan company making threats if I didn’t pay in full that day. I do know if it ever happens again, who I can call 😃
