A wrongful death claim is a legal action brought by the survivors of a person who has died due to the negligence or misconduct of another. It seeks compensation for the losses experienced by the deceased's family members.
What must be proven in a wrongful death claim?
To succeed, you must demonstrate that the defendant owed a duty of care to the deceased, breached that duty through negligence or misconduct, and caused the death, resulting in specific damages to the family.
Who can file a wrongful death claim?
The immediate family members of the deceased, such as spouses, children, and parents, are typically eligible to file a wrongful death claim. Some states may also allow other relatives or financial dependents to file.
How are wrongful death settlements paid?
Settlements are typically paid in a lump sum or through structured payments, as negotiated during the settlement process or as ordered by the court. The allocation among family members may vary based on legal guidelines.
