What is a Wrongful Death Claim?
Wrongful death occurs when someone dies as a result of another person, company, or state’s negligence or carelessness. The most common form of wrongful death comes from car accidents and negligent drivers.
Accidents That Lead to Wrongful Deaths Include:
• Job-related accidents
• Medical malpractice
• Birth injuries
• Fires
• Improper signage
• Automobile crashes
• Truck accidents
• Bicycle accidents
• Nursing home abuse and elder abuse
• Slip and fall accidents
• Drowning
• Defective product accidents
And while in many cases only the personal representative of the deceased loved one’s estate is able to file the wrongful death lawsuit claim, many parties can receive benefits as a result of the claim including parents, children, spouses, and siblings.
Wrongful death causes a variety of damages including:
• Lost wages, including future income that would have been expected
• Medical bills or costs incurred during the final illness or injury
• Loss of love, companionship, emotional support, and guidance
• Funeral and burial expenses
And if the loved one who was lost is a child, the damages can also include psychological counseling and uninsured debt.
