Losing a loved one is one of life’s most devastating experiences — especially when that loss was caused by someone else’s negligence, misconduct, or wrongful actions.

We understand that this is more than just a legal matter — it’s about protecting your family’s future, preserving your loved one’s legacy, and ensuring that those at fault are held responsible.

We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you owe us nothing unless we recover compensation for you.

What is a Wrongful Death Claim?

Under Minnesota law, a wrongful death occurs when a person dies due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions. This could be the result of a car accident, workplace incident, defective product, or other preventable event.

A wrongful death lawsuit allows surviving family members to seek financial compensation for both economic and emotional losses. These claims can be complex and time-sensitive, which is why having an experienced Minnetonka wrongful death lawyer is essential.
