Trial opens in case of West Palm Beach widow accusing tobacco company in husband’s death Trial opens in case of West Palm Beach widow accusing tobacco company in husband’s death. For years, Shirley Baker implored her husband to quit smoking. She nagged. She cajoled. When warning labels were put on cigarette packs, she held one up to his face and demanded he read it. In the words of their son, Richard, who also urged his father to give up the deadly habit, “she rode him like an old Harley.” But despite their efforts, Elmer “Perry” Baker didn’t quit.

Wrongful Death Attorney Palm Beach

Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach and South Florida

In Florida when someone is killed unexpectedly and wrongfully, the emotional aftermath is overwhelming for anyone who was close to the victim. Not only is death itself difficult to cope with, but when death happens without any warning, the shock and grief is much more severe.

If a loved one was killed as a result of someone else’s negligence or recklessness, the grieving process and struggle to move forward with life is often a large burden. The added stress of dealing with insurance companies, defense attorneys, investigators and the like is often overwhelming. While you focus on saying good-bye to your loved one, it makes sense to allow someone to help you with the legal aspects of your situation to ensure that the death was not in vain.

The Palm Beach wrongful death attorneys of Domnick & Shevin PL have been handling Florida wrongful death claims for many years, and these emotionally-charged legal struggles are best handled by a law firm with the experience necessary to serve as a guiding hand to the clients while simultaneously fighting relentlessly for the rights of those harmed.

Aspects of a Wrongful Death Case in Florida:

When a loved one is killed due to the negligence or recklessness of another, the situation must be carefully evaluated to understand the validity of the claim, and this is just the beginning. If a claim is filed, evidence must be gathered, the trial must be prepared for, fault must be found and the damages must be quantified.

Perhaps the most technically difficult aspect of a Florida wrongful death case is the quantification of damages, which is often the result of intricate calculations that can include:

Lost earnings
Future income
Medical costs
Funeral and burial costs
Loss of companionship
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress

No two situations are ever identical and while damages may be easy to identify, they are typically hard to prove as the defense will vigorously fight the claims and damage calculations. This is where the courtroom tested trial attorneys at Domnick & Shevin excel.

We are experienced at identifying damages, proving these damages in court and holding wrongdoers accountable for their actions. Learn more about our Notable Cases.
