Losing a loved one is the most challenging situation any of us can face. Having your loved one’s death be the subject of a Coroner’s Inquests makes this even more challenging and overwhelming. Coroner’s Inquests are public hearings conducted to inform the public about the circumstances of a death. They are conducted before a jury of five community members to determine:
Families of the deceased, and other affected entities are entitled to apply for standing and are then afforded an opportunity to testify, cross examine witnesses, and propose recommendations on how to prevent future deaths. The Ross Firm is dedicated to helping families and affected entities through the entire Coroner’s Inquests process, from: applying for standing, preparing clients and expert witnesses to testify, to cross-examining witnesses at the Inquest, preparing submissions and crafting recommendations.
