Framingham Wrongful Death

Framingham is a town of 68,000 in Middlesex County, about halfway between Boston and Worcester. The town is surrounded by Southborough, Marlborough, Sherborn, Ashland, Natick, Wayland, and Sudbury and is highly accessible by motor vehicle via I-90 (the Mass Pike) and four major highways. Framingham also has thirteen public schools and several private schools of all levels. Its relationship with Natick, located on Framingham’s eastern border, is particularly important to its economy—based largely on retail and office complexes. Along with a host of cultural activities and associations, the town is also very friendly to lovers of the outdoors, with sports fields, parks, ponds, conservation areas, and walking and biking areas.

At Altman & Altman, LLP—conveniently located near Framingham in Boston and Cambridge—our attorneys understand that there is no way to truly compensate for the death of a loved one. However, if you believe a loved one has passed away due to the negligence of another party in Framingham—or in the surrounding communities—you are advised to contact an experienced wrongful death lawyer at the Massachusetts law firm of Altman & Altman, LLP to seek maximum recovery for your loss.

Courts take into account a number of factors to determine compensation for your loss. These factors include: level of education, current and anticipated earning capacity, family situation and dependents, current health and life expectancy, funeral expenses and loss of guidance and emotional support to the children of the deceased.

Wrongful death cases are incredibly varied in terms of cause of death, degree of fault, and assessed “value” of the deceased person. One case, for example, could involve young plaintiffs who suffered from harmful carcinogens improperly disposed of by a large corporation or babies who ingested unsafe baby formula. Another case might involve a single plaintiff injured in a hit by a truck driver or hurt on the job due to improperly manufactured machinery. The possibilities are innumerable and it may be difficult to predict the damages that will be awarded in a given case. Our seasoned Framingham wrongful death attorneys will work diligently to negotiate an acceptable settlement for your case, but should your case proceed to trial, the litigators at Altman & Altman, LLP will represent your interests to the best of our ability and stand by your side every step of the way.
