Injured? Just Call Pazz!

Connecticut Wrongful Death Lawyers

Losing a loved one is one of life’s most painful experiences—especially when that loss is the result of someone else’s negligence or recklessness. At Pazz Injury Law, we represent families throughout Connecticut who are coping with the aftermath of a wrongful death. Our mission is to pursue justice, accountability, and compensation on behalf of your loved one and your family.

What is a Wrongful Death Claim?

A wrongful death claim arises when a person’s life is tragically cut short due to another party’s negligent, careless, or intentional actions. These claims are civil in nature and are designed to hold the responsible party accountable—whether it was a driver, employer, property owner, or product manufacturer. In Connecticut, wrongful death claims are brought under Connecticut General Statutes § 52-555.

Compensation Available in a Connecticut Wrongful Death Case

No amount of money can replace the presence of a loved one, but the law does provide surviving family members the right to recover certain monetary damages. These include:

  • Reasonable and necessary medical expenses and funeral costs.
  • The value of the decedent’s lost earning capacity, minus their expected personal living expenses.
  • Compensation for the loss of enjoyment of life—for the life the deceased could have lived.
  • Financial compensation for the death itself.
  • Compensation for the pain and suffering experienced by the deceased prior to death.

Dave is a very professional person that will walk you through what ever personal injury you make have or accident you have to deal with. Super helpful and very knowledgeable
Very good personal injury law firm for car accidents. They communicate well, are very knowledgeable and get the job done against the insurance companies. Highly recommend this injury law firm!
Dave was so kind & helpful! Kyle is also an asset to the team here. I was rear ended in a car accident & from day 1 they were so helpful, beyond communicative, and helped get me more money than I ever thought I’d get!! I appreciate all of your help. THANK YOU!! Highly recommend this law firm for any accidents!!!
Best Lawyer in Connecticut! Honestly the most genuine and humble individual I have ever met. Very passionate for all his clients and cases! I wouldn’t recommend anyone else beside Dave! Hope all is well Dave! Thank you for everything you’ve done! You’re a life saver! A true individual! God bless you and your hard work ethic, and your family!
Dave is professional, knowledgeable, and truly cares about his clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing an injury attorney!
Extremely friendly staff, all my answers were addressed in a timely manor. Atty. Pazzaglia, would always explain my questions to me in detail. Highly recommended this firm. It may be small, however that's why they were always able to help me. I really can say they were the best. Also praises to Kyle, Kim and even their temp person Sue.
A bit over a year ago I was in a car crash in which I was not at fault and received injuries.
Fortunately, I met with Pazzaglia Law. They have saved me from so much stress, anxiety and many thousands of dollars for consultations, a surgery and many months of physical therapy. (The insurance company initially offered me $1000 for my injuries.)
Thank you, Dave and Kim, for all your efforts and hard work. The result was amazing, far beyond what I hoped for! I have already recommended your services to others and will continue to do so.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Dave worked tirelessly over many months to ensure I received as much compensation as possible. My case was very difficult and complex, but Dave took the time to analyze every detailed. And when details were scarce, he solicited opinions from other professionals so that there would be no surprises from the opposing lawyers. I also appreciate his guidance before and during my deposition, making sure I understood the rules of the game so I didn’t hurt my own case, and stepping in when necessary to improve its outcome.
I see Dave as a very smart, compassionate and dedicated lawyer, and only wish he practiced law in other areas so I could take further advantage of these traits.
Sincerely,
Bob Cimmino
I was referred by someone I know. I would most definitely recommend to someone else in a similar situation as me.
