What Is Wrongful Death?
A wrongful death is defined as the loss of life of a person due to another person’s actions. These actions can be intentional, pre-meditated, or unintentional, but the fact is that a life has been lost because of another’s actions. Wrongful death cases have no connection to criminal action, so even if the defendant is cleared of the crime, the victim’s loved ones can still file a wrongful death civil action lawsuit.

He will work aggressively to hold the responsible person or entity legally accountable for the death of your loved one and will do everything in our power to obtain compensation for your loss. We will help you understand your rights under the law in a wrongful death claim.

I got into my first accident that wasn’t my fault and was very scared to find a lawyer who would do right by me. Taylor was awesome! He kept me updated of everything going on with thorough explanations. Very kind, respectful, will not sugar coat or make you feel like a bother! I would recommend him to anyone in need of a good lawyer 100%!

I just want to thank Austin for all the hard work he did for me after my car accident. He literally went above and beyond to get me a good settlement for my injury. He was used by my wife in the past and she highly recommended him. Now I’m going to pass on the same recommendation and advise you to hire Austin S. Pieratt if you are injured in a car accident. He is definitely the best!! Thank you Austin for all your hard work and dedication you honestly go above and beyond for your clients.

My daughter was injured in a wreck and had her car totaled. I reach out to Austin Pieratt and he quickly went to work. My daughter got the proper care she needed and Austin dealt with the insurance issues with no hassle to us at all. We received enough in our payout to pay for my daughter’s replacement vehicle. Austin is professional, and keeps you up to speed with progress. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing help after a car wreck!

What a pleasure it was to work with Austin to help me out of a bad situation. He just told me to leave everything to him and he will get it worked out and that’s exactly what he did. Five star treatment and I’m telling you he won’t let you down. He’s very transparent. You couldn’t go to a better place. Thank you again Austin for getting triple what the Insurance initially told me they would pay me.

Taylor and Austin were truly amazing! From the start of the phone consult to the date the case was closed they were always kind, compassionate, responsive and kept us in the loop the whole way. They went above and beyond to make arrangements for the settlement to be issued timely. Accidents are definitely not something you hope someone plans to go through and they definitely minimized the stress and frustration of dealing with the insurance company. You will absolutely be in good hands!!

Both Austin and Tripp were amazing! I contacted them after first contacting a larger and less desirable firm and between these two amazing gentlemen, my case was settled just over a year later and all the evidence I was was a old license plate (expired) and a phone number. They were able to track down the person that hit me, offer sound and encouraging advice through all the curveballs the defending party had to throw at us and show true integrity with transparency. I will happily hand any person their card with their information on it because of how amazing they were! Highly recommend!

Tripp took a stressful ordeal off of my plate and left me with full confidence he would handle it all. He did exactly that. He kept me updated throughout the process, responded anytime I had questions, and made sure I understood it all as we went. Not to mention my medical bills are now paid in full and no longer a concern! Such a relief. Highly recommend him to any and everyone working through an accident injury claim.
