Our wrongful death attorneys have handled injury and death cases involving motor vehicle accidents and fatalities (automobile, ATV, motorcycle, truck, dump truck,  RV, boat and bicycle), medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, dog bites, and a number of other personal injury claims. The wrongful death lawyers at Teague & Glover are committed to zealously and compassionately helping the survivors of the deceased achieve justice and fair compensation for their losses by fighting for you in court or during negotiations with the insurance company.

If another person or company has negligently or carelessly caused the death of a loved one, North Carolina law says that the negligent or careless person, and his/her insurance company, must pay money to you to help make up for the financial harms caused to you by the loss of your loved one. In wrongful death claims, money compensation may include the net income of the decedent had the decedent lived, medical and funeral expenses, the surviving family's emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship and advice, and punitive damages (intentional harm judged to be exemplary). The amount of compensation depends upon numerous factors, including the life expectancy of the deceased, the loss of future earnings; the support the deceased provided to his heirs; and the relationship of the survivors and deceased.

Wrongful death cases are often complex and difficult to prove, so it is important to acquire the services of a qualified personal injury attorney. The wrongful death lawyers of Teague & Glover have tried and settled many wrongful death claims in all of Northeastern North Carolina, including the Outer Banks, Elizabeth City, Edenton, Williamston, Ahoskie and surrounding areas. We are proud that one of our attorneys, Danny Glover, Jr., was elected to the Board of Governors of the North Carolina Advocates for Justice from 2003-2009 and was elected as the Chair of the Auto Torts Section of the North Carolina Advocates for Justice in 2005-2006.

If you are considering pursuing a wrongful death claim for the loss of a loved one, the attorneys at Teague & Glover will explain the necessary documentation, decisions and options that you will need to make. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means that we only receive an attorney's fee if we collect money for you. Call our office today at (252) 335-0878 or contact us via our online form.
