This type of matter is a classic issue that falls intot the realm of medical malpractice. There are VERY short statutes of limitation and these cases are often VERY complex and expensive to pursue. You should consult with an attorney, whether it be our office or another, to address these issues ASAP. YOu also want to make sure that a private autopsy is performed as a general rule to accurately document the cause of death.
