Overview

Understanding Wrongful Death Cases

Nothing can undo the loss of a family member caused by someone else’s carelessness. But a wrongful death claim can hold the responsible party accountable and provide the financial security your family needs to move forward.
RedStone Law handles these sensitive cases with compassion and determination. We take on the investigation and the insurance companies so your family can focus on grieving and healing, not fighting over paperwork.

Key aspects of these cases

Proving Negligence
Most cases come down to negligence — distracted driving, speeding, or breaking the rules of the road. We prove the at-fault party breached their duty of care and caused your injuries.
Gathering Evidence
Strong evidence wins cases. We collect police reports, witness statements, medical records, and crash-scene photos, and bring in reconstruction experts when a case calls for it.
Dealing with Insurance
Adjusters work to minimize or deny payouts. We handle every call and negotiation on your behalf so your rights are protected and your case is valued fairly.
Maximizing Compensation
We pursue the full range of damages available — medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, future care, and loss of quality of life.
Navigating KY & TN Law
Statutes of limitations and comparative-fault rules differ by state. Our attorneys know both Kentucky and Tennessee law and use it to protect your recovery.

Damages available to families

Kentucky and Tennessee law allow surviving family members to recover for losses such as:
✓
Funeral and burial expenses
✓
Medical bills incurred before death
✓
Lost income and future earning capacity
✓
Loss of companionship, care, and guidance
✓
The conscious pain and suffering of the deceased
✓
Loss of love, comfort, and support for the family

Watch out for

Insurance company tactics

Adjusters use the same playbook to pay less than your claim is worth. The most common tactics we see:
Blaming victims for their own injuries
Misreading medical records to reduce value
Claiming the injuries are unrelated to the crash
Pointing to pre-existing or age-related factors
Delaying the claim until you accept less
Making lowball offers that undervalue your case
Telling injured people they don’t need a lawyer
