WRONGFUL DEATH

Cases of wrongful death are similar to personal injury cases, except that someone was not simply injured by a negligent act but killed. The law usually limits who can bring such cases to the immediate family of the deceased, but other parties may bring wrongful death actions in unique circumstances.

As with personal injury cases, victory or defeat hinges on proving negligence on the part of the person or party who caused the death of the victim. If you have lost a loved one and suspect negligence to be the cause, contact the Iowa wrongful death lawyers at Carney & Appleby, PLC today.

ADMINISTRATIVE LAW
Estate planning, which includes legal documents like wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, is the process of preparing instructions on how to manage your assets after your death. State and federal laws apply to estate planning, and so do taxes. In order to protect your assets, it may be necessary to create legal entities such as limited liability companies (LLCs) or family partnerships. The estate tax and other related issues are a hot political topic, and estate laws change often. It is vital to consult an experienced estate planning attorney, in order to protect your assets and meet the goals of your estate planning process. READ MORE >
