Wrongful Death

Wrongful Death Law

Wrongful death occurs when negligence or misconduct of an individual, company or entity causes the death of another person. A loss of a loved one is a tragedy. The decendent's immediate family members, also known as the distributees, get the rights. These include spouses and children and sometimes parents of the wrongful death victim.

Wrongful Death Legal Issues:

Distributees are entitled to monetary compensation to help them get over the expenses, pain and suffering and settlement fees that came up as a result of wrongful death. In most wrongful death cases, the damages that distributees can get compensation for are:

• Pain and suffering of the family or loved ones
• Future expenses
• Medical bills
• Loss of benefits (including insurance coverage)
• Loss of earnings in the future
• Loss of inheritance the victim would have accrued
