 When you need the best, let Metro Law Offices work for you.

This is hard to write. My husband was killed in an accident leaving me and our 6 month old. Metro Law/Hurt911 sued the other driver and the bar he was drinking in and when my son turns 18 he will have over $2,500,000.00 available to him. The law firm also got me $750,000.00 for this horrible loss. They collected the maximum amount of insurance that was available! I wasn’t going to call anyone and I am so glad I did. Rebecca S.

Criminal Prosecution vs. Civil Litigation

When it comes to wrongful death, you have two legal options. The first is to press charges and pursue a criminal case. If you suspect malicious intent, choose this avenue. If the defendant is guilty, he or she may serve prison time or pay exorbitant fines.

In civil litigation, the defendant is not charged with a crime. Instead, the court determines an amount of restitution to be paid to the bereaved family. You will want to hire a Minneapolis wrongful death law firm for this legal battle. In some cases, you may be able to take both criminal and civil action.
