Justice for families. Accountability for loss.
At Glago Williams, we represent families who have lost loved ones due to negligence, recklessness, or wrongful conduct. While no legal outcome can reverse the pain, a wrongful death claim can hold the responsible party accountable and provide financial support for those left behind. We pursue these cases with focus, respect, and unwavering commitment to your family’s future.
Wrongful Death Legal Advocacy
Wrongful death claims demand skill, strategy, and deep compassion. We’ve represented spouses, children, and parents after fatal car crashes, workplace tragedies, hospital negligence, and corporate failures. Our team investigates every detail, collaborates with forensic and economic experts, and fights for maximum recovery — including lost income, loss of companionship, funeral expenses, and survivor damages.
Fatal Vehicle Accidents
We represent families after deadly crashes involving cars, 18-wheelers, rideshare vehicles, and motorcycles — including multi-party and insurance-limited scenarios.
Medical & Institutional Negligence
When a life is lost due to medical malpractice, hospital errors, or neglect in nursing homes or care facilities, we bring forward cases that uncover systemic failures and demand justice.
Workplace & Construction Fatalities
We hold contractors, companies, and third parties accountable when preventable worksite conditions lead to fatal injuries. Our team is well-versed in OSHA standards and wrongful death liability.
Premises & Property Liability
If someone you love died due to unsafe property conditions — from drowning to structural collapse to negligent security — we build comprehensive cases to establish fault and secure restitution.

A wrongful death case is about more than compensation. It’s about truth, accountability, and protecting other families from future loss.
Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit in Louisiana?
Typically, the surviving spouse, children, parents, or siblings of the deceased may bring a claim. We’ll help you determine eligibility and represent your family's legal interests.
How is a wrongful death case different from a criminal case?
Wrongful death is a civil action, independent of any criminal charges. It seeks financial damages and accountability, even if prosecutors decline to file or pursue charges.
What damages can we recover?
Compensation may include funeral and burial expenses, loss of companionship and support, lost income and benefits, and pain and suffering (both for the decedent and surviving family).
What if the death occurred in a hospital or during surgery?
We have extensive experience handling wrongful death claims tied to medical malpractice and hospital negligence. These cases require expert medical review and urgent investigation.
Is there a deadline to file a wrongful death lawsuit?
Yes — Louisiana law sets strict time limits for wrongful death claims. Time is critical, especially when evidence must be preserved or institutions may delay or deflect accountability.
