Fort Worth Wrongful Death FAQs

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how Angel Reyes & Associates may assist you with your case.

What should my family do after a wrongful death in Fort Worth?

After losing a loved one to another person’s negligence in Fort Worth, preserve any evidence from the scene, request a copy of the police or accident report, and document any expenses your family is facing. Do not speak to the at-fault party’s insurance company before consulting a wrongful death lawyer. Contact us as soon as you are able to protect your family’s rights.

Who can file a wrongful death claim in Texas?

In Texas, a wrongful death claim may be filed by the deceased’s spouse, children, or parents. If no family member files within three months, the estate’s executor may file on the family’s behalf. Our attorneys can confirm your family’s eligibility during a free consultation.

What compensation may my family be able to pursue?

After a wrongful death, your family may be able to pursue compensation for funeral and burial expenses, lost income and financial support, loss of companionship, and mental anguish. Every case is different, and the facts of the incident will shape what your family may be entitled to.

How long does my family have to file a wrongful death claim in Fort Worth?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for wrongful death cases is generally two years from the date of death. Waiting too long can eliminate your family’s right to file. Contact us promptly so we can preserve the evidence your case will depend on.

How much does it cost to hire a Fort Worth wrongful death lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates?

Hiring a Fort Worth wrongful death lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates costs nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning your family pays no attorney fees unless we win. Your first consultation is free.
