Wrongful Death Lawyers

Need wrongful death lawyers? If you lost a family member in an accident caused by another’s negligence or wrongdoing, you may be entitled to wrongful death compensation. Hire wrongful death injury attorneys to help you file your wrongful death claim.

Legal and financial burdens of a deadly accident

Hire experienced wrongful death lawyers. An accident that takes the life of a loved can devastate you and your family. Often, families are too grief-stricken after an unexpected fatal accident to even begin to think about monetary compensation for their lost loved ones. However medical bills, burial costs and other financial burdens associated with your loved one’s death can soon overwhelm you and your family.

Our wrongful death lawyers work hard to help you obtain the money you need and deserve after an accident to help make your loss less of a financial struggle.

Who can file a wrongful death claim?

When loved ones are killed in fatal accidents, certain family members may recover compensation for their resulting financial losses. While beneficiaries can only recover monetary damages for their own losses, a survivor’s action can be joined with a wrongful death lawsuit to recover damages that the deceased suffered. When a person is killed because of a wrongful act, neglect or default, the administrator of the deceased’s estate can sue to recover damages the deceased would have been able to recover if he or she had lived. These are basically personal injury damages and include the pain and suffering the deceased victim went through before death. Consult wrongful death lawyers for free to see if you have a case.

Florida Wrongful Death Law

Under Florida law, a wrongful death claim is a civil lawsuit that may be brought to court when a person’s death is caused by the “wrongful act, negligence, default, or breach of contract” of another party. Florida law requires the personal representative of the deceased person’s estate to file the wrongful death claim. You will need an experienced wrongful death attorney to open the estate for you to make a valid legal claim. The compensation recovered in a wrongful death lawsuit is usually for the benefit of the deceased person’s surviving family members.

Wrongful Death Compensation

The amount of wrongful death compensation varies on whether or not the person who died was the sole family provider, main wage earner, whether there are minor children, and how the families financial state will be affected in the future based on past pay and financial performance. As part of the wrongful death claim, the personal representative must name every surviving family member who has a financial and legal interest in the case. In Florida, this is any blood relative or adoptive sibling who is “partly or wholly dependent on the decedent for support or services“. Damages that surviving family members may recover in a wrongful death case often include loss of consortium, companionship, and protection; support and services previously provided by the now deceased person; mental anguish and emotional pain and suffering due to the loss; medical bills, funeral expenses, lost wages and earnings, including anticipated future earnings, and other costs to be determined and distributed by the estate. Wrongful death lawyers can help you guage your case value.
