Claims arising from the loss of a loved one come at an already very difficult time and can add to the trauma, stress and sense of loss. If an inquest is to be held, the strain is often compounded.
In practical terms, the death of a spouse or close relative can have devastating financial consequences for the family. Clearly, any financial compensation can never redress the loss felt, but may achieve some much needed future security.
At Penningtons Manches Cooper we are very aware of the added emotional strain in these cases and the need for particular sensitivity. We are experienced in investigating issues regarding financial dependency and household contribution.
Where an inquest is to be held, we can provide information on coronial law, arrange representation to raise legitimate questions and advise on the findings and any further action that may be appropriate.
Penningtons Manches Cooper's experienced team can advise in relation to a wide range of claims.
