Michigan Wrongful Death Lawyers

Our Michigan nursing home lawyers at Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C. handle cases involving wrongful death of a patient in hospital, nursing home and assisted living centers in Michigan. Under Michigan law, family members who have lost a loved one in a nursing home do have means to file a lawsuit against the nursing home facility and nursing home doctors whose negligence in their care of the resident caused a premature and untimely death.

The wrongful death lawsuits seek compensation for the family members and aim to prevent such a tragedy from happening to another resident.  Typically, the family will select a personal representative to bring the lawsuit for them.
