Legal Help from a Sulphur Springs Wrongful Death Lawyer

Death from Vehicle Accidents – Medical Malpractice – Workplace Accidents

At Roper & White, Attorneys At Law, we strongly believe negligent drivers, negligent trucking companies and negligent manufacturers should be held responsible when they cause the death of another.

Your loved one – father or mother, grandparent or child – was an invaluable, irreplaceable part of your family. Your family may need help to move forward after a tragic loss. Our Sulphur Springs wrongful death lawyers are dedicated to ensuring you receive the maximum compensation for your loss after a loved one has died from:

  • An assault or drowning because of lack of proper security
  • Using a defective product
  • A workplace accident
  • Mesothelioma/asbestos exposure

Who Can Bring a Wrongful Death Claim in Texas?

In Texas, a surviving spouse, children (even adult children) or parents of a deceased person can file a wrongful death claim. You can join together to bring a claim (spouse and children, for example), or you can make a claim separately.

When Can You Bring a Texas Wrongful Death Claim?

A wrongful death case must be filed within two years of the death. If a family member has not filed a wrongful death claim within three months of the death and an estate goes into probate, the executor of the estate can file a claim to recover money for the estate (unless the family says no).
