A death caused by the negligence, malpractice, or recklessness of another person is considered wrongful death.  Wrongful death can be caused by motor vehicle accidents, falling objects, work accidents, device malfunctions, or medical malpractice.  Regardless of the cause, families of the lost loved one have to suffer through immense emotional pain and distress.  Incidents of wrongful death are usually unexpected, which leads to further devastation for families.

Wrongful Death Law    
If a family has lost a loved one due to another person’s negligence, they are entitled to file a wrongful death claim.  A wrongful death claim allows families to receive compensation for the loss of their loved one, as well as for things such as:

• Medical expenses
• Loss of future income
• Loss of support
• Emotional pain and suffering

In order for a family to successfully file a wrongful death claim, several factors must be met.  First, a death of a loved one must have occurred.  Second, the death must have been caused by the negligent actions of another person.  Third, there must be surviving family members who will suffer monetary and emotional damages due to the loss.  Fourth, there must be an appointed representative to bring a lawsuit against the negligent party.  If all these factors are met, a family can seek damages for the traumatic loss of their loved one.
