In the aftermath of a catastrophic accident, medical error, or the wrongful death of a loved one, the world stops. You are left navigating profound grief while facing a storm of medical bills, insurance forms, and impossible questions. We understand. The Killino Firm is dedicated to fighting for justice, but we also know families need immediate, practical help before considering legal action.
We compiled resource guides as a starting point to help you find the financial, emotional, and informational support you need right now.
When a family is shattered by a catastrophic injury or wrongful death, the search for help is immediate and desperate. You are not just grieving; you are facing a sudden crisis of medical bills, insurance calls, and overwhelming uncertainty about the future. The Killino Firm understands that finding stability is the first critical step on the long road to justice.
That is why we are compiling these comprehensive resource guides for families and for communities across the nation. This page is designed to be your definitive starting point. It concludes your frantic search for “what to do next” by providing a clear, curated list of the financial, emotional, and safety resources available to help your family today.
A “catastrophic injury” claim is filed by the person who was severely injured. A “wrongful death” claim is filed by the surviving family members (through the “personal representative” of the estate) to recover damages for the loss of their loved one.
This is called the “statute of limitations,” and it varies by state and case type and sometimes even by the particular defendant. For example, you may have two or three years for an injury, but the limit for a wrongful death or medical malpractice claim can be shorter. It is critical to speak with our attorneys as soon as possible to protect your rights from expiring.
Not necessarily. The vast majority of personal injury and wrongful death cases are settled before they go to a full trial. An experienced law firm prepares every case as if it is going to trial, which often leads to a fair settlement offer.
At The Killino Firm, we handle these cases on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront. We do not charge any legal fees at all unless and until we win your case.
We strongly advise against this. The first offer is almost always a “lowball” offer designed to make your claim go away cheaply. Once you accept it, you sign away your right to ever ask for more money. Never sign anything without speaking to an attorney first.
