A Basic Explanation of Wrongful Death Cases

Wrongful deaths occur when a person dies because of another person's or organization's negligence, wrongful act, lack of proper care. In other words, it is a death that results from an accident that could have been avoided.

Since the death results from another person's wrongful actions, negligence, or default, the deceased's family members have the right to sue the responsible person or organization for a wrongful death claim. A wrongful death claim allows family members of the victim to recover fair monetary compensation.
