It’s hard to know what to do when you lose a loved one.  This is especially true when you lose a loved one in a fatal accident in Kentucky due to someone else’s negligence.  A fatal car accident or collision with a semi-truck in Louisville or anywhere in Kentucky can result in what is legally known as a “wrongful death.”  Kentucky’s wrongful death laws protect Louisville and Kentucky families while providing the ability to hold those responsible financially accountable for your tragic loss. If you are a spouse, parent or child of your loved one lost, you may be entitled to file a claim for the loss of affection, companionship and services of your loved one (called “loss of consortium”).

The experienced wrongful death attorneys at HLH have decades of experience in these cases.  We manage all of the legal details so our clients and their families can focus on supporting one another through this difficult time.  Our lawyers are able to recover damages for any conscious pain your loved one may have suffered, as well as the family’s loss of financial support, the time, affection and companionship of a spouse, as well as the loss of the parent-child relationship between the children and their mother and/or father.

Why is it important to work with the experienced and proven wrongful death attorneys at HLH when you lose a loved one in a fatal accident in Kentucky?  Wrongful death cases are legally quite complex and there may be multiple parties who contributed to or are liable for the loss of your loved one.  In many cases, the case involves a driver who is at work, or a commercial or delivery truck driver, or a result of another company at your loved one’s worksite.  Usually, there are multiple layers of insurance and business insurance carriers have strong legal teams.  You need proven attorneys with power, resources, experience and track record of success in these cases to stand up for your family and hold those responsible financially accountable.
