// OBTÉN LA COMPENSACIÓN QUE MERECES
It’s painful to lose a loved one, especially when their death could’ve been avoided. If you’ve lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligent behavior, we’ll fight for you and your family’s right to proper compensation.
At Kanner & Pintaluga, we’ll actively seek a settlement offer that covers the full extent of the consequent costs and damages you and your loved ones have endured as a result. The wrongful death attorneys at our Fort Myers personal injury law firm will evaluate your case and help you build a compelling claim with robust evidence as we pursue maximum compensation.

A personal representative is an individual named in the deceased’s will who has the right to pursue a wrongful death claim on behalf of the surviving family members. While the role is most often given to the surviving spouse or children, other relatives may also be eligible. If no one is named as the personal representative, a Florida probate court will make that decision. The representative can then pursue a wrongful death claim on behalf of the immediate family or other individuals who were partially or wholly dependent financially on the deceased individual.
Medical expenses incurred due to attempted life-saving emergency measures, funeral and burial costs, loss of future financial support, loss of prospective inheritance and other quantifiable losses.
The intangible damages resulting from an individual’s death, such as pain and suffering, loss of companionship, emotional distress, mental anguish and loss of guidance and support.
If the responsible party’s actions were malicious or glaringly negligent, they might have to pay hefty punitive damages. These aren’t meant to compensate for any specific loss or injury – rather, they’re utilized to punish the at-fault for their wrongful conduct and discourage similar behavior in the future.
No. Criminal cases are handled separately from wrongful death claims, meaning you’ll only be involved in a criminal case if you need to give testimony. Other than that, you’re free to seek compensation for your loss regardless of the criminal case’s outcome. There are situations in which a successful prosecution of the at-fault party could have positive benefits on a civil case, but every situation is unique.
Having an experienced wrongful death attorney on your side may increase your chances of obtaining the compensation you and your family deserve, as they can expertly guide you through the complicated claims process to secure a just settlement offer.
