Boston Wrongful Death Lawyer
Among the most emotionally difficult cases I handle at my practice are cases involving negligent and wrongful death. But the sorrow of the families of these victims and the injustice they have endured provides a powerful motivation for me.
By taking action in a wrongful death case, the families and loved ones of the victim can obtain justice for the victim and financial compensation to rebuild their lives. And they may be able to prevent such a tragedy from happening to someone else.
I was introduced to the legal system at the saddest time of my life . . . At a time in our country when lawyers are not highly regarded, I know how lucky I am to have found an ally and even a friend. Not only was Keith successful on my behalf, he will always be a hero to my daughter and me.
With most sincere support and appreciation,

Obtaining Justice for Victims and Compensation for Families
The liable party, its insurance company, and their lawyers often fiercely resist providing fair compensation in cases involving personal injury, medical malpractice, defective products, and other cases involving negligence or wrongdoing.
I am dedicated to obtaining justice for the victims of wrongful death and compensation for their families. Because of the gravity of the family's loss and the injustice done to the victim, I devote significant resources, my heart, and my soul into these cases.
Maximizing Compensation in Wrongful Death Cases
In setting a target for compensation, some personal injury attorneys merely multiply the years of their life expectancy by the person's salary. For many talented professionals, this can underestimate their life's earnings. An entrepreneur in a promising startup or a talented graduate student may not reach full earnings potential for years. I work with financial analysts and actuarial consultants to develop realistic lifetime earnings estimates that truly reflect the victim's earnings potential.
I get to know the victim's family to understand the gravity of their loss — the companionship a family will no longer enjoy, the parental guidance a child will never receive, or the fear a spouse feels at being all alone in the world. I build my case carefully and practice my presentation before the jury to maximize the likelihood of a favorable outcome. My goal in wrongful death cases is to prevail for my client.
Helping the families of deadly accident and wrongful death victims provides me with great professional and personal satisfaction.
