When an individual's death results from the negligent actions of another, certain surviving family members may pursue a wrongful death lawsuit to seek compensation. Typically, it is the spouse or partner, children, or parents of the deceased who file such suits.
Unlike criminal cases, where prosecution is aimed at punishing the wrongdoer, a wrongful death suit is a civil action. It doesn't require criminal prosecution to recover damages. Additionally, the burden of proof in wrongful death cases is lower compared to criminal cases. These civil actions are primarily intended to safeguard the rights and well-being of the victim's family members, rather than solely punishing the responsible party.
Wrongful death can arise out of a wide variety of situations including:
Drunk or reckless driving
car accidents
truck accidents
motorcycle accidents
pedestrian accidents
negligent construction
defective products
nursing home negligence
In cases involving severe or malicious wrongdoing, we may explore options for seeking punitive damages to provide additional compensation.
Although no monetary sum can fully compensate for the loss of a loved one, pursuing a wrongful death suit can offer financial relief and a sense of justice for survivors. Holding wrongdoers accountable can provide a measure of closure and peace of mind during such challenging times.
THIS CAN INCLUDE SETTLEMENT FOR:
Medical Bills ACCUMULATED BEFORE DEATH
LOST INCOME PROVIDED FOR FAMILY
PAIN AND SUFFERING
BENEFITS THAT DECEASED PROVIDED
FUNERAL AND BURIAL COST
WRONGFUL DEATH DAMAGES
Property damage incurred as a result of the events that caused the victim’s death
Grief and sorrow of the surviving family members or heirs
If you believe that your loved one's life could have been spared if not for the negligence or wrongful actions of another party, it's crucial to take immediate steps to preserve evidence, as this can significantly impact the outcome of your wrongful death claim. Here are some steps you should take as soon as possible:
Document the Scene: If safe to do so, document the accident scene by taking photographs or videos. Capture any relevant details, such as the position of vehicles, road conditions, and any visible injuries or damage.
Gather Witness Information: Obtain contact information from any witnesses to the incident. Their testimony could be valuable in supporting your claim.
Seek Medical Attention: Ensure that any injured parties receive prompt medical attention. Not only is this essential for their well-being, but medical records will also serve as crucial evidence in your case.
Preserve Evidence: Preserve any physical evidence related to the accident, such as damaged property or clothing. Do not alter or dispose of any evidence, as it may be needed for investigation.
Document Injuries and Damages: Keep detailed records of injuries sustained by the victim, medical treatments received, and any related expenses. This documentation will be vital in determining the extent of damages in your claim.
