What is an Example of a Wrongful Death?

Wrongful death is a type of legal claim or cause of action against a person who can be held liable for a death. The claim is brought in a civil action, usually by close relatives, as authorized by statute. In wrongful death cases, survivors are compensated for the harm and losses they have suffered after losing a loved one.

A wrongful death case arises when the negligence of a person or a company causes the death of another person. It often occurs in the context of a motor vehicle accident.

But a wrongful death can also arise from a work-related accident, a slip and fall, or even a dog bite.

Wrongful Death Examples:
– Car Accidents
– Accidents at Work
– Semi-Truck Accidents
– Pedestrian Accidents
– Aviation Accidents
– Motorcycle Accidents
– Swimming Pool Accidents
– Dog Attacks
– Amusement Park Accidents
– Construction Site Accidents
– Boating Accidents

How Does a Wrongful Death Lawsuit Work?

A wrongful death lawsuit works by an attorney preparing a solid case, requesting monetary damages, and then attempting to negotiate a settlement. If negotiations prove unsuccessful, then the case may go to trial if the parties are unable to agree.

Who May File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?

In some cases, only a victim’s spouse and children may sue for a wrongful death. Some states allow other relatives and non-married romantic partners to seek compensation for the death of a loved one.

In some cases, another person who is not a family member, but who depended on the deceased person for financial support or who would have been entitled to an inheritance, may file a wrongful death lawsuit.
