Wrongful Death

Wrongful death is caused by a careless, negligent, intentional or reckless act of another person or persons. If the death of a relative was caused by a wrongful act of another, the surviving family has the right to recover compensation for the death. This action is granted in most states.

The amount of recovery depends on the amount of money the deceased person was able to earn as well as whether the surviving family members were dependent upon this income for support. Loss of companionship and pain and suffering are other factors taken into consideration when courts and juries decide on compensation amounts.
