What Constitutes A Wrongful Death?
A wrongful death is a preventable death. A wrongful death action asserts that the death was caused by someone’s careless, reckless or intentional acts or professional negligence. You might have grounds for a wrongful death lawsuit against:
- A doctor, surgeon or hospital whose medical malpractice resulted in death
- A drunk or distracted driver who caused a fatal crash
- A trucking company that kept a fatigued trucker on the road against regulations
- A nursing home whose substandard medical care or abject neglect led to death
- A person who recklessly discharged a firearm and killed someone
- Other negligence resulting in a fatality
A wrongful death action can compensate the surviving family members for medical bills and funeral expenses, loss of the person’s income and household contributions, loss of marital consortium and loss of the person’s love, advice, companionship, support and parenting duties.
