Wrongful Death

When someone dies as the result of the negligence of others it is called Wrongful Death

Virginia law now recognizes that there is no true reparation for wrongful death…therefore, there is no dollar limit on the amount that may be recovered

Current law stipulates that only beneficiaries are entitled to recover money…

  • For a child, it is the parents and brothers & sisters.
  • For a parent, it is the spouse and children.
  • The recoverable amount is determined by statute, and generally includes the loss of support (wages for a spouse & children dependent upon them), companionship, and advice.

Sadly, we have extensive experience with wrongful death lawsuits. We believe that our responsibility to our clients extends beyond the lawsuit, to include estate administration, grief counseling, and other assistance for the families.

There is no reparation for the loss of a loved one. However, Frei, Mims and Perushek fights vigorously to help families receive compensation that will help them survive the loss.

Gary Mims represented me as my attorney with an issue I had last year. Working with Gary was a pleasure. He was very understanding about my situation, and it was affirming to talk to him. He had a good grasp not only of the legal issues, but the technical issues with my case. Other attorneys I had approached were less receptive because they were not familiar with my particular issue; Gary was. He was professional, empathetic, and a zealous advocate. I was very pleased with how he handled my case... Lisa Ramish

Trusted advice and guidance when you need it most: Gary Mims of Frei, Mims and Perushek, provided outstanding help and guidance through a difficult, emotional and often complex process. When we first thought we might need legal assistance we reached out to several attorneys that we found on the internet and Gary stood out from all the rest: he explained the situation and process ahead in simple terms that we were able to understand...While we hope not to need legal support in the future, if we did, Gary Mims would most certainly be our first, and only, choice. 10 out of 10, thank you Colonel Jeremy Johnson
