Winner & Associates has successfully handled many wrongful-death cases. If a decedent is survived by a spouse or children, the suit is brought on their behalf. If not, the suit is brought on behalf of his or her estate.

Initial consultations are free. Nearly all of these cases are handled on a contingent-fee basis, and the firm typically advances the costs of the case. Often, Winner & Associates will work with another law firm -- usually the referring firm -- in handling the case.

Winner & Associates is selective in the cases it takes. Once the firm decides to take a case, however, it holds nothing back. The firm is thorough in its investigation, discovery, and brief writing. Winner & Associates works with the best expert witnesses to maximize the prospects of recovery. Every effort is made to settle the cases before trial. The firm is experienced in negotiation, mediation, and issues of insurance coverage. Some cases cannot settle, however, and in those cases where a trial is necessary, Winner & Associates litigates aggressively.
