Ontario Wrongful Death Attorney, Sebastian Gibson, Trusted and Compassionate Ontario Wrongful Death Lawyer
When dealing with a wrongful death accident in Ontario and elsewhere in California, an attorney can’t help but be affected by a client’s unimaginable loss. If you’re feeling overwhelmed with sorrow from having recently suffered the loss of a loved one, it doesn’t take a wrongful death attorney in Ontario to understand you’re suffering enormous and incredible grief. You may be feeling lost and confused and wishing only that someone would tell you how you’re supposed to survive this ordeal.
In that instant in which a wrongful death tragedy in Ontario can occur, your emotions can run the gamut from disbelief, to shock and sadness, and finally to pain that can seem unbearable. In the aftermath, you may be heartsick and in despair, feeling as if you’re drowning in depression during this incredibly stressful and traumatic time.
As an Ontario wrongful death attorney, I know that in a time when your pain can seem unbearable, probably the last thing you want to think about is making a claim against someone or their insurance company. You’re much more likely to still be in mourning and trying to figure out how your life became turned so upside down. The shock of the sudden death of a loved one can be both emotionally and financially devastating.
As overwhelming as it may be to think about filing a lawsuit, it may be even more overwhelming for you to think about doing nothing. Enduring the wrongful death of a loved one by yourself can overwhelm you with anger, depression and anxiety. With the help of our Ontario wrongful death attorneys, we can share your burden and alleviate some of your pain and confusion. With our strength and with compassion, our wrongful death attorneys can help you through this emotional time.
You may well be suffering from depression if you’re still in the process of arranging a funeral, trying to put together the estate of your loved one, and assuring your family members that you, and they are going to come out of this all right, at least as soon as you can figure out how you’re going to pay for things with the loss of income you may have suffered.
When you’re alone, however, it keeps coming back to you that your loved one’s life could have been prevented. That if it weren’t for the negligence of someone else or their company, your loved one would still be with you today. Someone’s carelessness or inattention, or possibly even their intentional act has resulted in your heart breaking and the loss of your son or your daughter, your husband or your wife, your mother or your father.
When depression really sets in, you worry that your loved one may have had pain and suffering before they passed away. And that’s when it all becomes even more overwhelming. Our wrongful death lawyers in Ontario know the sadness you’re feeling and maybe even the anger. Let us redirect it where it should be, by pursuing compensation on your behalf against the party who caused this tragedy.
The pain and suffering and the grief you and your surviving family members may be going through can be unbearable. There is not a more difficult time in a person’s life than when they lose a loved one. But you don’t have to struggle through this tragic experience alone. We can share your burden with our strength and understanding of what you’re going through.
As you struggle financially, afraid for the financial health of your family which, in the blink of an eye, has become uncertain in the aftermath of your loss, medical bills and funeral expenses may already be coming in, if not collection notices as well. The one thing that may no longer be coming in is the paycheck your loved one normally brought home. On top of everything you’re going through, you or your other family members may be suffering from physical as well as emotional injuries from the same incident that took the life of your loved one.
Our Ontario wrongful death attorneys are devoted to helping you recover from your tragedy. If you’ve lost a loved one, we know the pain you’re going through. If your loved one was the source of income for the family, you’re going to need to recover not only emotionally, but financially as well. The overriding thought you must remember, is that it wasn’t your fault. If someone else was negligent, your survival doesn’t mean you should bear part of the blame.
We’ll get you through this situation. A wrongful death attorney in Ontario can take a great deal of the burden off of your shoulders. We know what you and your other loved ones are entitled to under the law and we’ll fight aggressively to obtain the maximum settlement. Your head may still be spinning from the injustice of the situation. But our Ontario wrongful death lawyers can take a look at the situation from a legal standpoint to find the parties responsible.
Because of the fact that many in your situation suddenly find themselves struggling financially, we take wrongful death cases on contingency, which means that we will pay all the costs and handle your case and wait to be paid only out of any settlement or award. If we aren’t able to obtain a settlement or award, we absorb all the costs we may have paid out. You still won’t owe us a dime for any of our time or expenses.
If you’ve suffered injuries yourself, physically or emotionally, we’ll refer you to the best medical specialists we can find and we’ll stay with you through every step of your case. We’ll help you recover from the anguish and the loss, and give you the attention you need. Let us take some of the responsibility off of your shoulders. You don’t have to suffer alone - we can help.

You may be wondering if your case is a wrongful death. If you’ve lost a spouse, or a child, a parent or a brother or sister, and their death is the result of another person’s negligence, or even as a result of an intentional act, you may have a wrongful death claim. If you’ve lost a loved one in an accident and don’t know if you have a case or not, call our offices and speak to Ontario wrongful death lawyer Sebastian Gibson. There’s no charge for the consultation.
You may be wondering if you have the right to bring a claim for a wrongful death in California. The rules are somewhat complex. If there’s a surviving spouse, the surviving spouse may make a claim or file a lawsuit. If there’s no surviving spouse, but there are children of the decedent, the children are the ones with the right to sue. If there is a surviving spouse and children, the spouse and the children may make a claim.
If the person who died had neither a spouse nor any children, then it’s the parents of the decedent who can recover damages. And if the parents are no longer alive, then it’s the brothers and sisters of the deceased who can make a claim. If a child of the deceased is no longer alive, but had a child of their own, or children, those children can recover in place of the deceased child. It can even be more complicated than that.
If an insurance company has already contacted you, they may already be lining up doctors to try to coordinate a defense to claim that the death of your loved one was caused by a pre-existing condition, or that based on life expectancy of a person who lives in this country, that your loved one would not have lived much longer even if the accident had not occurred.
But don’t worry. Our Ontario wrongful death lawyers have faced arguments like these before, and we’ve overcome all of the obstacles insurance companies try to place in a person’s path to recovery. They may claim you’re not entitled to loss of companionship, that your mental anguish from your loss of comfort, protection and care has no value, or that the loss of income, your loss of consortium and loss of support aren’t part of your claim, but they’re wrong.
They may claim you’re not entitled to your funeral expenses or past medical expenses but you are. Let an Ontario wrongful death attorney from our firm return the favor by evaluating whether or not we can make a claim for punitive damages in your situation. Insurance company tactics are infuriating, but we’re used to them. In fact, we thrive on them.
Will things ever become right again? Will you ever find peace again? With the help of our Ontario wrongful death attorneys, we can certainly try to make it so. Our Ontario wrongful death attorneys analyze your case with our decades of experience and if we feel we can try to make things right, we will. We’ve dealt with obstacles before and overcome them. You just need to remember, justice is on your side.
But the time for you to act is now. Time may be ticking away that could affect your right to sue for your Ontario wrongful death and our ability to collect vital evidence. Even if you don’t need the money, you certainly deserve it for the loss of your loved one and for the surviving members of your family. What may even be more important to you is remedying an injustice and finding peace for your family. In obtaining that peace, you and your family may find yourselves, at last, on the path to healing from your loss and the terrible tragedy you’ve had to face.
Retaining our Ontario wrongful death attorneys obviously won’t bring your loved one back to you, though if we could, we’d move heaven and earth to do so. But our wrongful death lawyers can seek the compensation you deserve. If, as a result of someone else’s negligence, you’ve suffered the loss of a loved one in a wrongful death in Ontario, call wrongful death attorney Sebastian Gibson today for a free consultation.
