Referring to Experts

We often use forensic experts to uncover the conscious pain and suffering the decedent experienced. Forensic experts are able to tell us what is going on in the body during the time of death, how the person died, and what that feels like. A fatal accident changes a family forever, and it is important to show the judge, jury, or insurance company the pain the decedent felt. It is this pain that family members will think of often. Negligent people and entities must be held accountable for their negligent actions and the trauma those actions bring to the lives of people who loved someone.

In Massachusetts, the wrongful death statute provides one of the few opportunities to seek punitive damages. When seeking such damages, it is important to have experienced counsel who can obtain the information necessary to support such claims.
