The loss of a loved one in an accident is an undeniable tragedy. When someone else is responsible for their passing, let a wrongful death lawyer in Cheyenne help you and your family seek justice.

The only thing that could possibly make the loss of your loved one more devastating than it already is is the knowledge that someone else caused or contributed to their demise through their own carelessness, recklessness, or outright negligence.

When you lose a loved one, you lose more than just their presence in your life. You lose companionship, love, and even financial support. Your empathetic Cheyenne wrongful death lawyer at Craig Swapp & Associates understands this, which is why we can fight to ensure that your family is fairly compensated for your loss.

Wyoming Wrongful Death Laws

Unlike criminal charges, such as homicide or murder, wrongful death claims settle the issue of compensation for the family of victims in a private agreement.

But who can bring a wrongful death claim?

In reality, it changes according to the state you live in or that your loved one passed away in.

In Wyoming, the following parties are legally permitted to file a wrongful death claim on behalf of their loved one:

The decedent’s spouse
Their children
Their parents
And other people who were dependent on the decedent

If you’re unsure about your ability to bring a wrongful death claim after the death of your loved one, you can contact an experienced wrongful death attorney for a free consultation.

Common Factors in Wrongful Death Claims

Losing a loved one can seem unimaginable. Sadly, as is the case in sudden accidents or events, they can be here today and gone tomorrow.

Some of the more common forms of accidents triggering wrongful death claims include:

Motor vehicle accidents
Construction accidents
Medical malpractice
Defective products
Slip-and-falls
Violent assaults

If your loved one’s death was caused by any of these or similar events, the family deserves compensation for their related damages. Contact a lawyer who can help you take the proper course of action to protect your rights.

What Kinds of Compensation Can I Receive in a Wrongful Death Claim?

The types of compensation you can receive in a wrongful death suit can depend on the types of damages your loved one’s death has caused.

One of the primary types of losses include economic damages. This includes all the tangible, financial losses that the family has experienced. Some examples of the these include:

Medical bills
Funeral costs
Burial expenses
Loss of income
Loss of future earnings

Other types of damages, such as non-economic damages, refer to the less-visible ways that your loved one’s passing has marked your life.

Some examples of these include pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and loss of emotional support.

Contact an attorney who can help you discover the different types of compensation that could be available to you.

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
