Agressive Baytown Wrongful Death Lawyer

When building your wrongful death claim, the more evidence you have, the better your chance of achieving a first settlement. Important documents and information that can strengthen your claim include the following:

Death Certificate

A death certificate is critical when proving wrongful death. This document proves the death of your loved one and provides further insight into the cause of death. It also notes the specific date and time of death, which is helpful for your claim.

Medical Records

These documents contain detailed information about your loved one’s health, including the following:

• Diagnoses
• Treatments
• Medications
• Doctor’s notes
• Test results
• Consultation records

Your medical records often contain your bills, which help us calculate your claim’s worth and ensure you achieve the compensation you deserve.

Autopsy Reports

If the wrongful death resulted from medical malpractice, autopsy reports contain essential information about the factors that caused the death. These reports also provide complete body examinations and photos, which can help prove liability.

Police Reports

If the police investigated the wrongful death, their report contains their findings and notes about the cause of your loved one’s death, which is an important piece of evidence. This makes police reports a critical element of a wrongful death claim.

Tax Returns and Pay Stubs

These documents help us determine how much compensation you deserve because they tell us how much your loved one earned, which may allow you to recover the wages your loved one would have made.
