Wrongful Death

Your Attorney Today, Tomorrow, & For Life

Losing a Loved One Hurts. Getting Compensated Shouldn't.

First, because you’re reading this page looking for a personal injury attorney, you’ve most likely lost someone very close to you.

I’m very sorry for your loss, and I can only begin to imagine what you’ve been through.
My clients tell me, though, that what makes losing a loved one even more painful is knowing in your heart that someone is responsible for their wrongful death.

That it could have been prevented. And, if we’re being honest here… that someone should pay.

Is that how you feel right now? If so, maybe I can help.

My name is Modoline Altenor, a wrongful death attorney here in Orlando.
I can’t bring your loved one back, of course, but I can help you by listening to your concerns and getting you and your family the compensation you deserve for your loss.

While that can’t take away the grief, it can ease your burden by giving you cash to:

  • Replace your loved one’s earnings
  • Pay for medical, funeral, and burial expenses
  • Compensate for loss of support
  • Take care of other expenses allowed by Florida law.

Commonly Asked Questions

What should I do if I suspect my loved one's death was due to someone else's negligence?

If you believe that your loved one's death was caused by another person's actions or negligence, it is crucial to seek legal advice as soon as possible. Document any evidence related to the incident, such as medical records, witness statements, and police reports. Consulting with a wrongful death attorney in Orlando can help you understand your rights and the potential for compensation. They can guide you through the legal process, ensuring that you gather the necessary information to support your claim and hold the responsible party accountable.

What types of compensation can I seek in a wrongful death claim?

In a wrongful death claim, you may be entitled to various forms of compensation. This can include reimbursement for medical expenses incurred before your loved one's passing, funeral and burial costs, and lost wages that your loved one would have earned. Additionally, you may seek compensation for loss of companionship, emotional distress, and other damages allowed under Florida law. An attorney can help you evaluate your situation and determine the full extent of the compensation you may be eligible to receive.

“But the Wrongful Death Wasn’t Really Anyone’s Fault, Was It?”

There are times when you think about what happened, and you’re 100% convinced that your loved one would still be with you if another person hadn’t been careless. But there are other times when you doubt yourself… and you actually start making excuses for the other person.

My other wrongful death clients here in Orlando and in Florida frequently tell me that they do this too, so you’re in good company. I can tell you, though, that I’ve been able to successfully win wrongful death awards and settlements for clients who didn’t think they had a chance of being compensated. Getting an award or settlement is only one part of putting the pieces back together, but it can definitely relieve financial stress as you and your family heal.
