Wrongful death claims are brought by the family of a person who has died due to the deliberate, reckless, or negligent actions of another. The goal of this type of claim is to obtain compensation for spouses, children and other designated close relatives, in order to pay funeral expenses, medical expenses and provide financial support. A wrongful death claim may also seek damages for pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, and loss of companionship or support for the surviving relatives. The exact type of damages or losses eligible for compensation is governed by law and depends upon the relationship of the survivor to the deceased person. For example, a surviving spouse is able to claim certain damages or losses versus a surviving child. An experienced personal injury attorney can explain your rights to you.
