Wrongful Death
Compassionate advocacy for families who lost a loved one due to negligence.

Losing a loved one because of someone else’s negligence is devastating. While no legal outcome can replace your loss, a wrongful death claim can provide financial stability and hold wrongdoers accountable.
Kelso Law Group represents families with care and determination during one of the most difficult times they will face. At Kelso Law Group, our attorneys know how insurers and defense teams evaluate claims because we have defended large companies and carriers — and we use that insight to build stronger cases for our clients.
Common Wrongful Death Cases We Handle
Wrongful death claims may arise from many types of negligence. We help families after:
- Fatal car, truck, and motorcycle crashes
- Medical malpractice and hospital negligence
- Workplace and construction fatalities
- Premises liability and negligent security deaths
- Defective product fatalities
- Pedestrian and bicycle fatal collisions
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
Families may be entitled to recover damages that address both economic loss and the profound personal impact of losing a loved one.
Depending on your case, compensation may include:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Medical bills incurred before death
- Lost income and financial support the deceased would have provided
- Loss of companionship, guidance, and consortium
- Pain and suffering experienced by the deceased when applicable
- Punitive damages in cases of gross negligence
What To Do After a Wrongful Death
Wrongful death claims have strict deadlines. Families should consider these steps:
- Obtain certified death certificates and preserve all medical and accident records.
- Avoid discussing fault or settlement with opposing insurers.
- Document financial dependence, lost support, and family impact.
- Identify potential beneficiaries and applicable state wrongful death laws.
- Contact Kelso Law Group promptly for a confidential case evaluation.
