A "wrongful death" occurs when a person is killed due to the negligence of an
individual, company or entity. Every state has a civil "wrongful death statute," or set
of statutes, which establish the procedures for bringing wrongful death actions. An
action for wrongful death belongs to certain persons identified by statute. In most
states, such persons will include the decedent's immediate family members, such
as surviving spouses and children, and sometimes parents or siblings. The Law
Office of Nelson Skinner is experienced in wrongful death law and can explain all of
the details of your case and fight for the best possible outcome.

If your family has lost the financial and emotional support of a loved one as the result
of another's action or inaction, you may be entitled to compensation. At the South
Texas Law Office of Nelson P. Skinner, our lawyers and staff will investigate the
circumstances surrounding your loss and pursue a just and equitable resolution to
your case.
