What Makes a Death Wrongful?
People pass away, and while every passing is heartbreaking, not every death is wrongful. A passing can be considered a wrongful death when the decedent’s loss results from negligence.
When evaluating whether a loss qualified as a wrongful death, we determine whether:
- The party responsible for the death had a duty of care to the decedent:Those who have a duty of care must act in a reasonable manner. “Reasonable” can mean safety-testing a medication, driving a vehicle safely, and generally acting in a way that protects others from harm.
- The responsible party violated their duty of care to the decedent: If the negligent party did not act in a manner consistent with what a reasonable person would do, they may have violated their duty of care.
- The violation of the duty of care caused the death: If the negligent party’s unreasonable behavior contributed or led directly to the decedent’s passing, your Arizona wrongful death attorney from our team will prove it.
- We can prove clients’ damages resulting from the death: The final step in proving a wrongful death is establishing damages. When one of our clients has lost a loved one, it is often crystal clear that they’ve suffered damages—from grief to lost financial support and many other types of harm.
We prove wrongful deaths based on the facts of each case. If your loved one passed because of a fatal truck accident, we might use video of the accident. If they were abused in a way that proved fatal, we may rely on medical experts and eyewitnesses.
Whatever the heart-wrenching details of your loved one’s passing are, we will work urgently to prove their death was preventable and, therefore, wrongful.

Our Attorneys Take Wrongful Death Cases to Court When Our Clients Need Us To
We do not ever believe in taking the easy route, especially when the goal is to get justice for a wrongful death. While we will not discourage you from accepting a settlement we deem fair, we will not encourage you to accept a lowball offer.
While most civil cases (even lawsuits) do not end up in court, some wrongful death cases do. Big Chad Law’s team will be ready for trial if you decide to try your case in court.
Your Attorney Will Only Receive a Fee If You Get a Financial Recovery
The contingency fee is how we receive payment for our services. This fee structure is geared towards our clients, some of whom could not afford an attorney if we charged a guaranteed rate. With a contingency fee, Big Chad Law:
- Pays case-related expenses for the client
- Does not receive an hourly rate or upfront fee
- Earns a fee by negotiating settlements or securing verdicts for our clients
Our fee is not guaranteed, and that’s OK. We receive our fee only if we secure money for you. It works because we are a success-minded law firm representing clients who deserve justice.
There Are No Limitations When We’re Building Your Case
Clients expect us to invest in them and their cases, and we are on the same page. It’s true that:
- Our firm’s success has provided us with substantial resources to invest in our cases.
- We don’t believe there are any shortcuts of Band-Aids when building a wrongful death case and that strong cases often require investment from the firm.
- If we believe an expert’s services or testimony will benefit the case, we will hire them without second thought.
- We don’t place financial limits on our cases, as we are most focused on succeeding.
The nature of our fee structure means that if our client wins, we win. This is one reason we can spend money to build successful cases—we plan to recover our costs when we succeed for the client.
Compassion Is Built Into Our Firm’s Culture
If you have lost a loved one, you’re surely experiencing one of the most challenging times of your life. Our firm recognizes that clients like you need (and deserve):
- Respect
- Compassion
- Empathy
- Patience
- Space to work through your grief
These qualities are part of our team members’ nature. When we know that a client is mourning a loss, we pay careful attention to show the client we care on a personal level.
We don’t take any case lightly, but we feel a particular responsibility to provide justice when our client has lost a loved one. Our firm will do everything possible to earn your trust and deliver the case outcome you and your loved ones deserve. Call Big Chad Law today at (602) 560-5820 for your free consultation about hiring an Arizona wrongful death lawyer.
Steps We Typically Handle in Arizona Wrongful Death Cases
We won’t pretend to know what your case will require. Before we can know that, we will need to know who your loved one was, how their death happened, and what you lost when they passed away. We are ready to listen.
With that being said, we handle several responsibilities in most of our wrongful death cases. These duties include:
Getting the Client’s Perspective
First, we let the client talk. You will have come to us for a reason, and we want to hear from you. You might tell us how your loved one passed, what you want to get out of your case, and how you hope we can help.
Securing Evidence
We will obtain all evidence that can help your case, which may include:
- Any police report related to the wrongful death
- Any relevant video
- Witness statements
- Expert testimony
The types of evidence that may be relevant to the case will depend on the specific details of your loved one’s death. We will urgently pursue any evidence that may be useful to the case and utilize that evidence within the case.
Detailing Losses from the Wrongful Death
Losing a loved one imposes a massive toll on the survivors. Your Arizona wrongful death lawyer will be responsible for showing what that toll is.
We may use your words, expert testimony, financial statements, and several other types of documentation to prove the cost of the wrongful death.
Establishing the Case Value
It’s always difficult to talk about financial values when someone has lost their life. However, this is a necessary step to get justice for survivors.
The value of wrongful death cases is almost always significant. We expect a critical class of non-economic damages—pain and suffering—to be a key consideration when valuing your case.
Negotiating a Settlement
If it’s appropriate to seek a settlement, we will do so. Depending on the circumstances surrounding the wrongful death, we may seek a settlement from:
- An insurance company that covered your loved one (such as an employer’s workers’ compensation policy, which may allow for death benefits)
- An insurance company covering the at-fault party (like a negligent motorist’s auto insurance provider)
- Any parties liable for your loved one’s death (who may be represented by a civil defense lawyer)
Settlements are often an appropriate resolution to a wrongful death case. This can be the most efficient and discreet way to get justice for a loved one’s loss.
Leading Any Lawsuit the Client Elects to File
Wrongful death lawsuits are a fairly common response to a loved one’s preventable death. If suing one or more parties is your chosen course of action, a lawyer from Big Chad Law will lead the legal process.
The trial can be in the cards if liable parties do not offer a fair settlement in response to your lawsuit. Our Arizona wrongful death lawyers are always prepared to fight for clients at trial and will be prepared to fight for you.
Your Case Is Yours, So We Will Personalize Our Approach to You
The attorneys at Big Chad Law strive to get justice and handle our cases in a manner that is suited to the client’s needs and expectations. Some ways that we may personalize our approach to your case include:
- Communicating how you want to communicate, as clients vary in their preferred mode of communication, the number of updates they want to receive, and other communication-specific considerations
- Honoring your feedback when it comes to strategy, as you have the final say in whether to accept a settlement, pursue a lawsuit, and go to trial—it is your case, after all
- Pairing you with the attorney most qualified to lead your case, which will be a lawyer with extensive experience handling wrongful death cases
Despite the tragic circumstances for which you’re seeking a lawyer, we will strive to make your case as painless as possible.
Your Case Is Yours, So We Will Personalize Our Approach to You
Losing a loved one often causes:
- Intense pain and suffering
- Loss of consortium

Your losses will be nuanced, and we will expect that they will ultimately be costly. We will demand accountability from those responsible for those losses.
