  1. How do I Choose the Right Wrongful Death Lawyer?

  2. In the aftermath of losing a loved one in an accident caused by a negligent party, you need the services of the best west palm beach wrongful death attorney to handle the case as you grieve or handle funeral preparations. If you don’t know how to choose the right lawyer, you will end up with a double tragedy – losing a loved one and ending up with a lawyer that won’t help you at all.

  3. Quick stat Over 90,000 wrongful deaths occur due to medical malpractice alone. Hiring the best lawyer for the job is the first step towards getting justice for your loved one and peace of mind for the family, knowing you didn't sit back and watch while the perpetrator walked scot-free. However, it is not such an easy task to find the right lawyer for this job. Here are a few tips to help you make the right choice for yourself and your family.

  4. Start With Research • You have access to various platforms that can help you get more information on the lawyer’s background. Adequate research helps you get more information on what the lawyer does, his record, and whether he can handle the case. • Take a look at what the testimonials on the website of the lawyer say about him; look at the local bar association, and even talk to other lawyers to see what they say about your choice. • If possible, narrow it down to lawyers specializing in wrongful death cases.

  5. Ask the Right Questions The best way to know more about a lawyer is to ask questions regarding their expertise. However, you need to be careful with the questions you ask: If they have handled cases similar to the one you are requesting them to take up • The number of years they have been serving the residents of your area • Their track record regarding settlements and verdicts • The resources at their disposal These questions aim to determine what to expect from the lawyer when he takes up your case.

  6. Their Standing Before you choose the lawyer, ensure you check their standing. Browse the local bar association to determine if he is a member. If not, then you know that they don't have a good reputation in the city and you need to look elsewhere. A lawyer listed on the website has a good reputation with his peers and is well suited for your case.

  7. Excellent Communication Skills • The right lawyer to handle your wrongful death claim must possess excellent communication skills. • How he communicates with you is crucial in the outcome of your case. • Get a lawyer who listens when you talk, understands your needs and fears, and answers your questions correctly. If you call and he doesn't answer or return your calls, move on to the next one. • Without proper communication, the process might just frustrate you more.

  8. The Cost Factor Different lawyers charge differently according to the underlying circumstances. Before you go ahead and narrow down on a lawyer to represent your interests, compare their fees. Some lawyers are open to working on a contingency basis, while others will want to charge you per hour.

  9. Get a Third Opinion • Ask your family members and friends about their opinion on which lawyer you should pick. • If a family member has gone through the same situation as yours, then you can ask them to give you a referral to the attorney that represented them. • Alternatively, talk to your family lawyer, if you have one, to refer you to one of their colleagues that is an expert in wrongful death claims. Don’t stop here; ask for contacts of previous clients so that you can speak to them to understand their experience.

  10. Endnote • The lawyer you choose will either make or break the case.
