Are you a victim of cemetery negligence?
Rest in peace should mean exactly that. The last thing we do on earth for our loved ones is to make sure they are buried in accordance with their wishes. When you lose a loved one, you trust the cemetery to treat their remains with respect. Unfortunately, that trust may be violated by cemeteries using improper, inappropriate or even illegal practices.
Sometimes, cemetery negligence is obvious. Gravestones are clearly not in the correct place, or remains are missing. Other times, negligence may be hidden. It may be hinted at by a grave disruption, misplacement of temporary markers or requests by the cemetery to dig up a gravesite for any reason. No matter what, you have the right to see these issues resolved. You have the right to seek compensation. You have the right to see your loved one's remains treated with respect.

*** Lawdragon creates its guides to the best lawyers in the United States through a unique combination of online balloting and independent research. Our reporters and editors interview thousands of lawyers to get their input on the top "Dragons" in any region or practice field. We also collect votes through our online ballot, which democratizes such lists, allowing lawyers who might be overlooked through traditional surveying techniques to be identified. Those submissions are then researched and vetted by our editorial staff.
To select our guide, we survey the quality of the votes an individual receives (more weight, for instance, to the vote of a corporate counsel than to a partner in the nominee's firm) while acknowledging the quantity of votes. Based on that combination as well as vetting of recent cases and activity, we assemble a guide that reflects geographic and practice diversity while always underscoring excellence.
