What Is Wrongful Death?
Wrongful death is the legal term for any personal injury cases that involve fatalities. Wrongful death lawsuits aim to get compensation for not only immediate pain and suffering and medical bills, but also for the lost wages, loss of companionship, loss of consortium, etc. that cover the rest of a normal life span.
Wrongful death lawsuits involve two elements:
- A wrongful death action that seeks to compensate the surviving family for lost future support
- A survivorship action that deals with the estate of the deceased and compensates for any pain and suffering the decedent may have experienced prior to his or her death
Another benefit to filing a wrongful death lawsuit is that it can help save lives in the future. When companies and individuals learn about or experience a lawsuit for wrongful death, they often enact new safety standards that can help prevent similar accidents.
