  1. Who Can Sue For Wrongful Death?

  2. “Losing a loved one due to the wrongful actions or negligence of someone else leaves deep scars on a family that will never heal. Having someone ripped from your lives unnecessarily and with no warning is a shocking experience, and there’s no amount of money that can make that hurt go away.”

  3. There are many different scenarios that may lead to wrongful death, including: Negligent driving, including driving while intoxicated, speeding, and careless driving Intentional acts, such as murder or manslaughter Unsafe premises that result in falls down unsafe stairways or electrocutions from dangerous or faulty wiring Medical errors, including failure to diagnose, surgical error, prescribing unsafe medications, or other careless actions Dangerous products that cause harm, including vehicles and machinery that are manufactured with unsafe or faulty parts

  4. Bear in mind that it is sometimes the case that a wrongful death claim, which is a civil tort, may be filed around the same time or after a criminal proceeding related to the death. Even if the at-fault party in the death is acquitted of criminal charges, the wrongful death claim can still proceed and very often will be successful since the burden of proof is not as great in civil court as it is in criminal court.
