And finally, punitive damages, those are damages that the court awards to punish the conduct of another party. Punitive damages are awarded when there’s reckless or egregious conduct. Punitive damages are generally awarded in types of cases where you have a DUI.
Wrongful Death
Pennsylvania law permits specific individuals to file claims for compensation against any parties responsible for a loved one’s wrongful death. Although you may not be thinking about lawyers, insurance claims, and finances in the aftermath of an unanticipated loss of a loved one, you may nonetheless benefit from having a Western, PA wrongful death lawyer on your side.
Traffic Violations
Failing to obey traffic rules and regulations by speeding, driving recklessly, improper passing, and failing to maintain their lanes
Sex Crimes
Although it may be difficult to do so, it is important to talk to law enforcement about an incident of childhood sexual abuse. Recent changes in the law now allow police officers and prosecutors to charge offenders with sexual assault at least until the child in question turns 50 years old.
Assault
Homicide
Because the burden of proof is lower in civil court than in criminal court, you may be able to recover financial compensation even if the person responsible for the death is acquitted of criminal charges. Moreover, the defendant in the criminal case and the civil case may not be the same as the defendant in the civil case. For instance, when a person is killed in an act of violence, the person who actually committed the homicide may face criminal charges, while the owner of the premises where the homicide happened may be held liable in civil court due to negligent security. A knowledgeable Western, PA wrongful death attorney could explain the differences between civil and criminal charges and how they relate to your claim in more detail during an initial consultation.
