Justice Doesn’t Wait And Neither Do We

Losing a loved one because of someone else’s negligence is devastating. The grief, confusion, and financial strain can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. At Kwartler Manus, our wrongful death attorneys in New Jersey represent families across the state who have lost loved ones in accidents caused by negligence, recklessness, or carelessness.

From our Cherry Hill office, we fight to secure the accountability, closure, and compensation you deserve because while nothing replaces a life, justice still matters. We don’t wait for defendants to do the right thing. We make them.

What Is a Wrongful Death Claim?

A wrongful death claim allows surviving family members to pursue damages when another person or company’s actions caused a death. These claims are designed to provide financial relief and hold negligent parties accountable.

Common causes of wrongful death include:

Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
Construction or workplace incidents
Medical malpractice or surgical errors
Dangerous property conditions
Defective products or machinery
Nursing home abuse or neglect

Every case tells a story of a preventable loss, and our team’s job is to make sure it’s heard.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in New Jersey

Under New Jersey law, a wrongful death claim can typically be filed by the personal representative (executor) of the deceased person’s estate. The compensation then benefits the surviving family, including:

Spouses and children
Parents or legal guardians
Financial dependents or other heirs

Timing is critical; wrongful death claims in New Jersey generally must be filed within two years of the date of death. Our firm moves immediately to preserve evidence and meet all deadlines.

Recoverable Damages in a Wrongful Death Case

While money can’t undo the loss, it can provide stability for your family’s future. Compensation in a wrongful death case may include:

Funeral and burial expenses
Medical bills related to the fatal injury
Loss of financial support and future income
Loss of companionship and guidance
Emotional anguish and suffering
Punitive damages in cases of extreme negligence

We work with economists, medical experts, and investigators to ensure every dollar of loss is accounted for, not minimized.
