Wrongful Death and Fatality Claims Lawyer for Calgary and Alberta | Litwiniuk and Company

Money can never come close to filling the hole left in your heart by the loss of a loved one. If you are the parent, spouse, child, grandparent, or sibling of someone killed by the negligent act of another person, the emotional impact can be beyond overwhelming. Dealing with the financial impact and implications on top of everything else can feel impossible. Who will take care of funeral expenses? Who will provide for the family? How will we cope? Whether the death was the result of a car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, or pedestrian accident, inadequate care at a nursing home, or some other kind of negligence, there are certain things that are recoverable by close family members of the deceased, such as:

• Damages (an amount of money) for bereavement (sadness due to the death of a family member) under the Fatal Accidents Act of Alberta
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Damages for loss of guidance, care, and companionship
• Damages for loss of service (housekeeping, chores, etc.)
• Damages for loss of financial support
• Damages for loss of income for grieving family members
• Counselling or therapy costs for grieving family members
• Costs associated with attending the funeral (such as travel expenses)
