Questions Families Ask About Suicide Cleanup in Southpoint, Milwaukee, WI

Do I have to see the room?

No. Many families never enter the room. The cleanup team can work while you stay elsewhere, and you can ask a friend, landlord or representative to meet the crew for access. Photos and records can be shared if you want them.

Who pays if the person was a tenant?

Lease terms and local law decide. A landlord may handle cleanup through the owner's insurance, or the tenant's estate or renters policy may apply. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can explain the details for a specific case.

Do I need to be at the property during cleanup?

Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can also ask the team to pause while a family member collects something.

Where can I find support after a loss to suicide?
