Wrongful Death
Holding Responsible Parties Accountable
Under Oklahoma law, a “wrongful death” is defined as a death that is caused by “the wrongful act or omission of another” when the act or omission would have permitted the person to file a personal injury lawsuit had they survived.
The wrongful death of a loved one can be even worse if that loss is caused by someone else’s negligence. Maples, Nix & Diesselhorst does not have the power to change what happened to your loved one. However, our attorneys have the skill and the experience to find out why the death occurred and to work hard to obtain accountability from the responsible party.
When you partner with Maples, Nix, & Diesselhorst, you will discover a team of professionals who will stop at nothing to seek justice for you and your family. Responsible parties must be held accountable for their negligence to learn from their mistakes and to make changes to their behavior to avoid similar tragedies in the future.
