What Is a Wrongful Death Case in Texas?
Texas law lets certain family members seek money when someone dies because of another person’s negligent, reckless, or intentional act. Common situations include:
- Fatal car, truck, bicycle or pedestrian accidents
- Medical mistakes or malpractice
- Dangerous property conditions
- Defective products
- Workplace accidents
These cases aren’t just about money. They’re about responsibility and holding the at‑fault party accountable for what happened.

Frequently Asked
Questions
What compensation can we expect in a wrongful death case?
You may seek money for medical bills, funeral costs, lost income, and loss of companionship. Every case is different, and we explain likely outcomes based on actual facts.
Do we have to go to court?
Not always. Many cases settle with insurance companies. But we prepare every case as if it will go to trial so you get the best chance at full compensation.
Will the at‑fault party go to jail?
A wrongful death claim is civil — it seeks compensation, not criminal punishment. Criminal charges are separate and handled by prosecutors.
How long will it take to resolve our claim?
Some cases resolve within months. Others take longer if liability or damages are unclear. We give you honest timelines based on your situation.
What if we can’t afford attorney fees?
You don’t pay unless we win. That means no upfront costs and no financial risk for your family.
How do you prove negligence in a wrongful death case?
We gather evidence like medical records, police reports, expert testimony, and witness statements to show the other party’s carelessness caused the death.
When should we contact a lawyer?
As soon as you can. The earlier we start, the better we protect evidence and your rights.
