Wrongful Death 

Wilmington, Delaware, Wrongful Death Attorneys

When negligence or a reckless indifference to the safety and well-being of others results in a fatal accident, those responsible can be held liable for wrongful death. The personal injury lawyers at Rahaim & Saints in Wilmington understand the desire for justice when a family member has been killed in a preventable accident. In addition to the immeasurable grief caused by an untimely death, the surviving family often suffers enormous financial damages, including loss of income, insurance, pension and retirement benefits, as well as the loss of the companionship, love and guidance of the person who was killed.

Demand Justice and Accountability

If a loved one was killed due to the recklessness of another person or entity, demand accountability and justice - contact the wrongful death attorneys at the law office of Rahaim & Saints today. We provide free consultations in order to evaluate your case and determine how we can help you and your family. We work hard to recover damages for the losses suffered by your family including funeral and burial expenses. While no amount of money can replace your loved one, a fair wrongful death settlement can provide financial security and a sense of closure so you can move forward in life.

Our attorneys investigate fatal accidents using engineers, toxicologists, forensic specialists, materials experts, and others in determining what happened, why, and how it could have been prevented. Even in cases where a manufacturer or employer has not purposely flouted the law, if they should have reasonably foreseen the dangers involved in their actions, they can still be held liable for deaths caused by a dangerous product. While companies, businesses, doctors, and drivers almost always deny responsibility for fatalities, our lawyers have the investigative resources needed to expose negligence on their part.

Causes of Wrongful Death

The law office of Rahaim & Saints represents survivors of those killed in the following kinds of accidents:

Determining when Gross Negligence is Involved

While each case is different, negligence involves a breach in the duty of care one party owes another. In each instance, the court or jury must determine whether a reasonable person could have foreseen or should have foreseen certain dangers associated with a particular action. In cases of gross negligence, a blatant disregard or indifference for the safety or well-being of others is involved - not just a failure to see or identify a duty of care.

For instance, driving drunk, speeding excessively, ignoring serious medical symptoms, or locking fire exits indicate a disregard for the safety of others: engaging in actions known to be inherently dangerous betrays a reckless indifference to the well-being of others and the potential consequences of one's actions.
