We Take Many Kinds of Wrongful Death Cases
If your loved one passed away because of another party’s negligence, you could have a wrongful death case. This would give you the right to pursue the at-fault party for financial compensation, which you could then use to pay accident-related expenses and continue supporting your family.
Negligence-related accidents take many forms, including:
- Motor vehicle accidents. Roads are only as safe as the people who use and maintain them. Fatal crashes can involve cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and bicycles. Boat accidents can also be deadly.
- Product liability accidents. You buy products—from cars and appliances to medical equipment and electronics—trusting that the manufacturer has made the product safe to use and that they will recall hazardous products. Unfortunately, this is not always the case.
- Premises liability accidents. Property owners and lessees have to keep both the indoor and outdoor areas of their property free of slip or trip hazards. Falls can be deadly: over 1,000 adults over the age of 65 passed away from fall-related injuries in Massachusetts in 2023.
You can get in touch with GED Lawyers after losing a loved one to any of these types of accidents. We are a compassionate, accessible law firm that can provide comprehensive legal support during this difficult time. We can even assist you in the language of your choice:
- Spanish

Your Compensation Is Based on Your Wrongful Death Losses
Every plaintiff’s settlement or jury award should accurately reflect all past, present, and future losses. This could include damages like:
- Loss of companionship, in other words, the fact that your loved one is no longer here to provide guidance to their child(ren) or care and comfort to their spouse
- Loss of financial support, if the deceased’s income allowed you to pay bills and maintain your current lifestyle
- Loss of services, if the deceased performed important chores and tasks around the house (e.g., childcare or cleaning)
- Funeral expenses, which could include the cost of a burial, casket, cremation, and memorial service
- Final medical expenses, if your loved one received any sort of treatment or palliative care before they passed away
To prove that your family is entitled to these types of damages, our Cambridge wrongful death lawyers collect as much evidence as we can find pertaining to how the accident happened, who caused it, and what effect it has had on your life. This could include:
- Reports from the Cambridge Police Department or the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME)
- Photos or videos of the accident or the place where the accident happened
- Company records, if a corporation may have been involved in the accident
- Black box data, if any of the vehicles in a motor vehicle accident were equipped with an electronic logging device
- Testimony from witnesses who saw what happened before, during, or after the event
- Experts who can talk about the medical or economic side of the event, or who can help reconstruct what happened
- Previous complaints made against the liable party for similarly negligent behavior
- Your family’s financial records, including pay stubs, bills, receipts, and tax information that can speak to the accident’s economic impact
GED Lawyers has seen firsthand how devastating fatal accidents can be. Let us stand up for your family and pursue the justice—and the financial compensation—you need to start rebuilding your life.
