If you have lost a loved one, spouse, child, family member due to a wrongful death the anguish and heartache is unspeakable.
What Is A Wrongful Death?
A wrongful death is one caused by a negligent, careless, intentional or reckless act of another person or of a corporation.
All 50 states guarantee the right to compensation for families and children of those who are killed in a wrongful death.
Claims can be filed for any type of wrongful death, regardless of the specific cause. Some common causes are:
- A road accident
- A plane crash
- Medical malpractice
- A construction site accident
Wrongful Death Claims
There's a 2-year statute of limitations in California for the surviving family members to file a wrongful death claim.
So don't delay in contacting an expert wrongful death lawyer.
When you file a wrongful death lawsuit against the negligent party, you must be able to prove:
- That the death was caused by the negligence of that person; and
- That you will experience severe future emotional and financial hardship because of the wrongful death
Fair Compensation
You could be entitled to receive payment for a variety of factors, such as:
- Medical costs
- Funeral expenses
- Punitive damages for death by negligence
- Loss of love
- Loss of companionship
- Loss of the moral support of the decedent
- Loss of the financial support or household services which you would have received from the decedent
Receiving financial compensation for the wrongful death of a family member can assure that the wife, husband, children or other family
members reestablish their sense of financial security. And while it doesn't heal the grief, financial security does at least help people to
focus on coping with the grief and adapting to the inevitable changes that follow a sudden death in the family.
