We Believe In Justice For The Families Of Homicide Victims
After a murder has taken place, we depend on police and prosecutors to pursue the perpetrators of these heinous acts to the utmost of their abilities. We expect them to seek justice for society by punishing the killer. But what about the rights of the surviving family? What opportunities exist for bereaved family members to seek full justice and compensation through civil litigation remedies?
Homicide is a nightmare for family members who are left to grieve and ask endless, unanswerable questions such as, “Why?” “If only . . . . .” or “How could this horrible thing have happened in our family and in our community?” Justice from society’s point of view may come about through the criminal justice system, but justice for the family may include a civil lawsuit against the perpetrator and any other responsible parties such as property owners.
