Our Co-Counsels Can Help You Seek Justice and Compensation
When a loved one’s life is cut short because of someone else’s negligence, your family faces more than emotional pain; you may also struggle with medical bills, funeral expenses, and the sudden loss of financial support. A wrongful death attorney can pursue compensation for these and other losses to help restore stability and accountability.
In Indiana, recoverable damages in a wrongful death case may include:
- Medical expenses related to the treatment your loved one received before passing
- Funeral and burial costs
- Lost income and benefits your loved one would have contributed to the household
- Loss of companionship and love suffered by surviving family members
Our law firm partners work closely with economists, financial experts, and medical professionals to calculate the full value of your losses. While no amount of money can truly make up for your loss, recovering fair compensation can ease the financial burden, provide a sense of justice, and help your family begin the process of healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
A wrongful death occurs when someone’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional act causes a fatal accident.
If your loved one would have been able to file a personal injury claim had they survived, the case likely qualifies as wrongful death. An Indiana wrongful death attorney can review the circumstances, determine whether negligence was involved, and explain your legal options during a free consultation.
In Indiana, the statute of limitations for filing a wrongful death lawsuit is generally two years from the date of death. This means you must file your claim within that timeframe, or you could lose your right to pursue compensation. However, certain factors, such as the deceased’s age or whether the at-fault party is a government entity, can affect this deadline. A wrongful death attorney can review your situation and ensure all filings meet the required legal deadlines.
Under Indiana law, a personal representative of the deceased person’s estate typically files the wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of surviving family members. The compensation recovered may benefit the deceased’s spouse, children, or other dependents. In cases involving the wrongful death of a child, parents or legal guardians may bring the action directly. An experienced attorney can determine who has the right to file based on your family’s circumstances.
Yes. When you contact The Goldwater Law Firm, you’ll never pay anything up front. Our law firm partners handle wrongful death cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you only pay if they recover compensation on your behalf. This ensures every family, regardless of financial situation, can access legal representation. Your consultation is free, confidential, and tailored to help you understand your rights and options.
