  3. In a Pennsylvania wrongful death case, the lawsuit must be filed by a personal representative of the estate of the deceased. If the person who has passed away left behind a Last Will and Testament, then the person named as the Will’s Executor is the Personal Representative. If the deceased died without a Will, a family member may volunteer to be the Personal Representative, or the court may appoint someone.

  4. Wrongful death lawsuits are filed on behalf of the beneficiaries of the deceased’s estate. If the Personal Representative fails to file a wrongful death claim within six months from the date of the person’s death, any beneficiary is allowed to file a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of the rest of the beneficiaries. Beneficiaries in a Philadelphia wrongful death case are considered “real parties in interest.” this is essentially limited to the deceased’s spouse, children, or parents. A person’s Brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, or other family members have no cause of action to file a wrongful death case in Pennsylvania.
