Personal Injury & Wrongful Death Claims

Where a person is injured or killed by another's fault, Vietnamese law provides for compensation covering treatment, lost income, care and, in death cases, funeral costs and support for dependants.

Wise Counsel represents injured people and bereaved families in establishing liability and quantifying what is properly claimable.

What we help with

• Establishing fault and the causal link between the act and the harm
• Claims arising from workplace accidents and unsafe premises
• Claims arising from medical treatment and professional negligence
• Claims arising from defective products and services
• Quantifying treatment costs, care costs and loss of earning capacity
• Claims for funeral expenses and maintenance for surviving dependants
• Compensation for mental suffering within the statutory limits
• Coordinating a civil claim alongside any criminal proceedings

Compensation depends heavily on evidence of expenditure and income. We advise families early on what to keep, because it cannot be reconstructed later.
