The loss of a loved one can be one of the most painful things you’ll ever experience. If you’re going through a difficult time like this, please know our hearts go out to you and we offer our sincerest condolences. The confusion and stress you have to endure while grieving can be overwhelming.

Spouses, children, or parents could be entitled to financial compensation in a wrongful death case that could help ease financial strain for the family. At Galindo Law we have compassion for what you’re going through and our attorneys can take the necessary legal actions to support your family’s recovery.
