Wrongful Death Lawyer
Written by Joseph A. Nagy
In the awful circumstances of a wrongful death or fatality, the emotional distress born by loved ones is devastating. At such a time, dealing with insurers can be frustrating and time consuming. A wrongful death lawyer may be able to ease your burden. A wrongful death lawyer should understand what you are experiencing, protect your interests, and be available when needed.
My name is Joseph A. Nagy, and I am an experienced wrongful death injury lawyer. My offices are located in Edmonton. My firm serves clients in central and northern Alberta. I hope you will schedule a free consultation with me. I know how to determine every possible source of compensation to which you are entitled – and how to obtain it for you or your loved one’s estate.
Professional- Caring- Passionate - Three words I would use to describe Joseph A Nagy!!!
After much consideration whether I even wanted to pursue my claim; and searching for a lawyer through Google reviews, I read Joseph A Nagy's reviews and decided to give him a call. I wanted someone that wasn't from a huge law firm where your file gets passed through whoever may have time to work on it. My case was more complicated than most (I thought anyway) and being that our car accident occurred in Phoenix and had a fatality involved; being my husband - and leaving myself with numerous injuries as well and off work for 2 1/2 years; I wasn't sure anyone here in Edmonton would want to deal with my claim. After speaking with Joe, I felt that he was sincere and actually cared about what I was going through! He actually listened to me and my concerns, and no question was ever left unanswered! I was hardly off the phone with him, and he was already contacting a lawyer in Phoenix to proceed with my case. After 1 year into this case, I was rear ended as well; which prolonged my healing process and added even more complications to my claim from my previous accident. Joe handled all this with professionalism and commitment. He kept me up-to-date on where he was at with things on a continual basis. After many meetings with Joe, Nicole and Preet, and 2 1/2 years later from the time I contacted him, I have received my settlement - which after many negotiations with insurance companies and a Mediator, he achieved a fair settlement for me.
I am forever grateful to Joe and his team for their guidance and support through my ordeal!! I recommend Joe and his team 100%!!
