Wrongful Death Attorney in Minneapolis
Put Our Years of Experience in Your Corner
If your spouse, parent, or other loved one has been killed as the result of another’s negligence, misconduct, or criminal actions, you have the right to file and pursue a wrongful death claim. No amount of money can really compensate for someone’s death, but just compensation can help soften the blow of the loss of their financial support and other costs incurred by their passing.
At Butwinick Injury Law, our Minneapolis wrongful death attorneys know what you and your family are going through, and we are dedicated to being a team that provides you with trustworthy, compassionate counsel that fights for your rights and the best outcome possible. We have helped thousands of Minnesotans who have been wronged through the negligence of others, and we take pride in helping those who have been wronged stand up for themselves and use the justice system for its intended purpose. Plus, we work on contingency fees, and that means you won’t pay any legal fees to us unless we recover on your behalf.
