Wrongful Death Lawyers
Did your loved one die due to an act of negligence? You have the right to sue for damages.
At The Madrid Law Firm, our father-daughter team of attorneys is heavily involved in seeking justice for families who have lost a loved one due to an act of negligence. Whether your case involves a death in a car accident, in police custody, through the use of a dangerous product or any other form of negligence, we are ready to get your case into motion.
Damages in a wrongful death case extends to financial losses, often with medical costs prior to death, loss of income from a breadwinner for the family, funeral costs and other direct losses. There is also the issue of pain and suffering, which is part of any wrongful death claim.
Our goal is to help you to seek justice for the losses you have experienced, and this is achieved through a claim for compensation. If there is any attempt to reduce the value of your wrongful death claim, or avoid paying a reasonable settlement, we will move forward with a civil action and take the case to a jury for a decision. We are trial lawyers that carefully prepare every case, so that it trial-ready should it be necessary.
Our Successes
Here are some of our cases that we have successfully secured compensation for our clients and their families:
Recently, we represented the families of two men that died in an automobile accident. The Madrid Law Firm sought compensation for the loss of these two husbands and fathers of their children. The heirs are entitled to compensation for all medical, funeral expenses and loss of earning and earning capacity. Team Madrid continues to fight for their families.
We represented a widow who lost her husband when he was operating a scissors-lift. While the husband was on the scissors-lift, the lift tilted and fell causing the husband to fall and be crushed to death between the lift and a wall. Team Madrid sought compensation for all of her pain and suffering, loss of consortium, and future loss of the husband’s earnings and earning capacity.
Result: Case settled for seven figures before trial.
Team Madrid represented the family of an individual who died in an electrical explosion at work. The electrical room was a makeshift death trap. It was an explosion waiting to happen. The employer conceded to multiple OSHA violations.
Result: Case settled for seven figures.
Team Madrid represented the wife of an individual who was injured at a bakery. The individual received a contusion to his shoulder. Afterwards, the contusion became progressively worse and the individual developed necrotizing fasciitis, which is a severe infection. As a result of this severe infection, the individual died. Team Madrid was able to recover compensation for his widow and children despite the negligible impact that originally caused the contusion.

“I had an amazing experience with Madrid Law Firm. Ed, Erica and their team were extremely responsive and helpful.”
I had an amazing experience with Madrid Law Firm. Ed, Erica and their team were extremely responsive and helpful. I was in a horrible situation and had absolutely no idea on what to do. After talking with Erica and Ed I instantly felt comfortable and confident that everything was going to be taken care of. And, now I can confidently say everything WAS taken care of in a professional and timely manner. I appreciate them and their help a lot. I highly recommend the Madrid Law Firm.- Amanda M. -
“If I had to describe The Madrid Law Firm in one word it would definitely be FAMILY.”
It was a Sunday morning, I was in my restroom, in tears, scared, lost and clueless when someone gave me the number to Ed Madrid. I immediately called, not knowing what to say, what to ask, or even if someone would answer (it was Sunday). Ed answered very politely, friendly and caring. He right away gave me comfort and walked me through what we needed to do to get on top of everything. My brother was charged with a very serious drug case, where he was facing 25 years to life. Never had we had to deal with anything remotely close to this so my family and I were scared, confused and saddened. When I walked in to meet with Ed and his daughter Erica, they right away made me feel welcomed and comfortable. They were very honest in giving me the information and at the same time caring as it wasn't easy to hear what my brother and my family would have to face in the process. We had millions of questions and it never mattered what time it was, Ed always answered and explained everything thoroughly. Initially my brother was facing 25 to life for the severity of the charge, Ed and Erica were able to drop it down to 7 – 9 years and, in the final sentencing, they brought it down to 5 years. My brother has currently served half of his sentence and The Madrid Law Firm has never stopped checking up on my family and I to make sure we are all doing ok. In March there was a sentence reduction amendment sent to congress that would benefit my brother, if passed. Ed is already on it! He's giving me the information and is ready to move forward as soon as the law is passed. I always had the impression that attorneys would be sneaky, take your money and when the case was closed they were done and that was the end of the story. Not with The Madrid Law Firm, they always stay in contact and make you feel like you're dealing with family. Thank you Ed for all your patience, your help and your friendship. My family and I will be forever grateful for all your help.- N.M. -
“Erica is very easy to talk to and explained everything.”
Like most folks, I am not up on lawyer talk and/or the big words you see on certain documents. Erica is very easy to talk to and explained everything. She took the time to make us feel comfortable during our misfortune. Erica's hard work is true and her kindness is genuine - she took time with us and we were not just another client to bill. In our uncertain world these days, Erica is a breath of fresh air! Should we ever need legal aid again, we will call on her again!- Lois D. -
“You made every effort to make this process easier for me, since I was out of the state and I greatly appreciate that.”
Mr. Madrid, I would like to thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to my case. You made every effort to make this process easier for me, since I was out of the state and I greatly appreciate that. Please let everyone who worked on my case that I am thankful for their work! I will definitely pass your name along, to anyone who may need your services. I wish you the best in your business. Sincerely, D.C.- D.C.
