Nesseth Paul

With over 200 years' combined experience, the Nesseth Paul Group knows what you're going through. We understand the financial and emotional difficulties of getting injured due to someone else's negligence or carelessness. Medical bills can be overwhelming, and taking time off work to heal can be challenging. When an injury prevents you from working, you may need the help of Traverse City and Grand Rapids personal injury lawyer Kelly Neumann to fight for you and your family's rights. Neumann Law Group represents clients on Michigan's West Side. Our attorneys work hard to make sure insurance companies pay the full amount accident victims are owed. After losing a loved one, you may feel there's nothing else left worth living for. Financial compensation cannot bring them back, nor can it replace their lost income. This compensation may address practical issues, such as how to keep a roof over your head or how to feed your children. Kelly Neumann, a West Michigan lawyer, also represents family members in wrongful death claims. The West Michigan injury attorney enjoys advocating for victims and their loved ones. Wrongful Death Claim A wrongful death is one that happens as a result of somebody else's fault, negligence, or wrongful acts. You may file a wrongful death lawsuit if the deceased would have had grounds to file a personal injury lawsuit had they survived. Wrongful death lawsuits are classified as civil cases and can be brought without criminal charges. Criminal cases are subject to a higher burden of proof and different rules (i.e., beyond reasonable doubt). You can still file a wrongful death lawsuit even if criminal sanctions are not imposed against the defendant. However, the outcome of criminal cases can sometimes impact the civil case.
