I had an outstanding experience working with Ciana on a personal injury matter. Without her expertise, I would have never realized that I even had a case. Ciana’s attention to detail and deep understanding of personal injury law were invaluable. She guided me through every step with professionalism and care, ensuring I understood the process and felt supported. Thanks to her diligence and expertise, what could have been overlooked became a well-handled case. I highly recommend Ciana to anyone needing a knowledgeable and dedicated legal professional.

They have been entirely helpful since they accepted my case. Thorough and informative every step of the way. When I had an IME and no gas in my car they arranged for a ride to and from. After fighting tooth and nail myself with little to no results Palace Law stepped in and immediately Sedgwick stopped dragging me through the mud.
Working With You to Obtain Equitable Compensation After a Wrongful Death
Our professional and caring Portland wrongful death attorneys will assist you with your claim by establishing a strong communication link with you in addition to utilizing all available resources to ensure successful prosecution and compensation. At Palace Law, we realize that no amount of money can truly make up for a loved one’s death. However, being compensated for the avoidable death of a loved one can help you bear your grief with the consolation that your loved one did not die in vain, and that justice prevailed in the end.
Moreover, compensation can help solve those problems your deceased loved one used to solve for you while alive. If he or she was your family’s primary breadwinner, we will make an additional case for the compensation package to include payment for future lost earnings and other relevant damages.
What are the Potential Damages in a Wrongful Death Claim?
A wide range of damages can be sought by a wrongful death claimant. Some of the more common damages that can be awarded include:
- Medical expenses arising from the treatment of the injuries that led to the deceased’s death
- The anguish and misery the deceased passed through due to the injury. This covers the time (no matter how short) between the injury and death
- The costs incurred for the deceased’s funeral and burial
- Lost pecuniary support and other benefits the deceased would likely have provided to those seeking redress
- Loss of love, care, guidance, and companionship that the deceased would have provided to family members if he or she was alive
- Loss of the services that the deceased would have rendered to family members if he or she was alive
If the claim is successful, then the likely awardees of the damages can include the deceased’s wife/husband or domestic partner, children, and stepchildren. Assuming the deceased has no wife/husband, domestic partner, or kids, then other possible awardees include the deceased’s parents or siblings. Similar damages can be awarded to the parents or guardians of a child that passed away.
