Wrongful Death Attorney

If You Have Lost a Loved One Due to Someone Else's Actions, You Need the Best Attorneys Representing You

There is nothing more painful than the loss of someone you love. Even more tragic is when that loss is the direct result of the negligence or malicious intent of another.

It happens every day in Vermont and New Hampshire; pedestrians are struck by reckless drivers, people are fatally wounded by gunfire due to mistaken identity, and patients are misdiagnosed by doctors. When any one of these scenarios causes the death of the injured person, it qualifies as a case of wrongful death – any unnatural death caused by the unintentional or intentional act of another.

You need one of the experts at Van Dorn & Curtiss fighting for the compensation you deserve. Our firm has years of experience trying and winning wrongful death cases in Eastern Vermont and Western New Hampshire.

Our reputation for our aggressive style and skill in the courtroom is well known. That’s why other law firms will refer wrongful death cases to us when they realize that they don’t have the resources or the experience to litigate them. Don’t trust just any attorney to recover the damages that you deserve in order to regain control of your life after such a tragedy; trust Van Dorn & Curtiss. Our winning record speaks for itself.

Our Goal is Not to Meet Your Expectations. Our Goal is to Exceed Your Expectations.

The experts at Van Dorn & Curtiss realize that nothing can replace a lost loved one; however, we know how financially and emotionally devastating such a loss can be.

A wrongful death lawsuit not only brings a sense of justice, but it also recovers necessary financial compensation. Medical bills alone can be staggering, especially if the victim was also a source of family income.  Claims covered by a wrongful death case include medical and funeral costs, lost wages (including future earnings), lost benefits, lost inheritance, pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of support or companionship, general damages, and punitive damages.

The legal team at Van Dorn & Curtiss is well versed in the particulars of wrongful death litigation.  For instance, we have mastered the ability to prove malicious intent in order to recover punitive damages, and our consistency in recovering generous jury awards reflects this.

Our legal team also understands that wrongful death laws vary from state to state, and a plaintiff must act quickly. The statute of limitations in Vermont is two years and in New Hampshire it’s three years. Van Dorn & Curtiss has the expertise and connections necessary to plan your legal course of action and recruit experts to testify as to the negligence of the defendant.

Litigating a wrongful death suit must be done quickly, and our law firm has the knowledge and skill to work against time constraints. We are not afraid to try high pressure cases and enjoy taking cases to court and winning large jury verdicts. We are satisfied only when you have recovered fair and just compensation for your loss, and we won’t settle for anything less.
