An Immeasurable Loss
The loss of a loved one doesn't count in just a lost
income, but also the immeasurable loss of the society, love
and companionship of that individual. While no amount of
money can replace the emptiness left by the departure of a
loved one, Utah law attempts to compensate by recognizing a
claim on behalf of the heirs.
Constitutional Importance
The framer's of the Utah constitution wisely recognized the
need to protect against lobbying efforts by corporate and
insurance interests seeking to eliminate a claim for the
loss of a loved one. As part of Utah's constitution, each
citizen in this State holds the right to open courts and
constitutional protection for wrongful death claims.
Careful Claims
Avoid the dangers and pitfalls which can arise in a complex
wrongful death claim. The individual filing such a claim
represents not only themselves, but also acts on behalf of
all heirs in pursuing the claim. Hasenyager & Summerill

benefit of all whose lives have been so drastically
changed.
