Wrongful Death
Medical Treatment and Considerations for Wrongful Death
In wrongful death cases, the deceased's medical treatment before their passing is a crucial component of the claim. This treatment can provide vital evidence about the cause of death and the extent of suffering endured. Common medical considerations include:
⦁ Emergency and Acute Care Records: Detailed documentation of the medical interventions provided immediately following the incident that led to death.
⦁ Specialist Consultations: Records from specialists who treated specific injuries or illnesses related to the wrongful death.
⦁ Hospitalization and Surgery Reports: Detailed accounts of any hospital stays, surgeries, and procedures performed in an attempt to save the deceased's life.
⦁ Autopsy Reports: These provide conclusive evidence regarding the cause of death and can substantiate claims of negligence or wrongful actions.
