Pembroke Pines is the second largest city in Florida’s Broward County. The motto of the city is "Join Us - Progress with Us” and the community has been named by various organizations and magazines as one of the best cities to live in the US and as one of the best cities to raise children. In the past, Pembroke Pines has been awarded the National Civic League's "All-America City Award" and awards from the U.S. Conference of Mayors. The Florida Department of Education has also given some of the city’s schools the Five Star School Award, which is one reason why Pembroke Pines is popular with families.
While fatalities occur in Pembroke Pines every day, it can be especially galling for family members to realize that they have lost a loved one due to someone's negligence or recklessness. These types of preventable fatalities are often especially difficult for families to recover from because they are sudden, preventable, and result in a great deal of anger and upset.
Florida law allows some immediate family members to pursue Pembroke Pines wrongful death claims in cases where someone's negligence has led to a fatal Pembroke Pines car accident, medical mistake, bicycle accident, or other type of accident. In some of these cases, a Pembroke Pines wrongful death claim can allow the family to recover money for final medical expenses, funeral cost, pain and suffering, punitive damages, and other costs related to the injury.
However, when pursuing a Pembroke Pines wrongful death claim, it is very important to hire the right Pembroke Pines personal injury attorney. Wrongful death claims can be complex, as there are statutes of limitations in place and only certain family members are allowed to file a wrongful death claim in Florida. In addition, in order to successfully pursue a Pembroke Pines wrongful death claim, claimants must successfully prove that negligence and not simply an accident caused the fatality. It often requires considerable attention to detail as well as considerable proof in order to successfully argue for wrongful death compensation. An experienced and qualified Pembroke Pines wrongful death attorney will have the legal knowledge and the resources to aggressively pursue this type of claim so that you get the fairest settlement possible.
