Do I Have a Wrongful Death Case?

Providing Answers Following Fatal Accidents in Pennsylvania

When you’re injured in an accident, your legal case may be complex, but it will begin with a simple premise: something happened to you and you want to hold the negligent party responsible through compensation paid to you. In a wrongful death case, confusing legal questions can begin at the onset. Who will file the case? How will the victim’s death affect someone else? And who will be awarded compensation?

At the Philadelphia and Allentown, Pennsylvania, law firm of Metzger & Kleiner, we can draw on over 40 years of legal experience to answer these and all other questions pertaining to your case. And we bring more than experience to your legal matter.

We have built our practice on personal and caring service. We have helped dozens of families manage legal challenges while struggling with the grief that wrongful death invariably brings. Turn to us when you’re ready to pursue a fair outcome following the loss of a family member in a fatal car or truck crash, work-related accident or other accident.

Negotiation and Litigation Skills to Pursue the Compensation You Deserve

While most personal injury and wrongful death cases are settled out of court, it’s important that defense attorneys know your lawyer is serious when he or she threatens a court action. Our lawyers have handled dozens of courtroom cases and are members of the Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association. We have recovered numerous seven-figure awards in wrongful death cases, including a recent case in which a minor boy was killed in a car accident. Our investigation and diligent representation resulted in a $3.1 million settlement.

Our consultations are free and we are always ready to take your call. To contact Metzger & Kleiner, call 1-800-228-1760.
