Wrongful Death
Wrongful death cases are difficult to handle and involve a tremendous amount of grief. Nonetheless, a wrongful death lawsuit can help the surviving family members recover compensation for their losses.
In general, a wrongful death claim is brought by the survivors of the deceased person to recover damages that reflect the full value of the deceased person’s life. These claims can include medical expenses, burial costs, pain and suffering and in some situations, punitive damages.
Survivors who are eligible to receive damages vary from state to state, but typically include spouses, children, parents of unmarried children, and siblings. These claims can also be brought by the administrators of an estate to recover medical bills, funeral expenses and other expenses incurred before the death. These two claims are generally separate, but may be joined in a single lawsuit.
