Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?

A wrongful death lawsuit is a personal injury suit filed on behalf of a deceased person to seek compensation for their losses. A deceased person’s survivors are allowed to sue for damages under Florida law provided they meet the statute of limitation and have a viable claim. While a wrongful death claim is filed to benefit the family and loved ones of a deceased individual, the case can only be pursued by a representative from the decedent’s estate. A representative of the estate is required to provide the court with the name of the decedent’s survivors before filing their case. Any damages awarded to the estate will be distributed according to inheritance laws if no estate plan is in place. 

When is a Wrongful Death Claim appropriate?

If you aren’t sure whether you have a viable wrongful death claim, meeting with an attorney can help you work through the details of your claim to determine how you should proceed. When a loved one dies from injuries sustained in an accident or negligent incident, like medical malpractice, survivors can pursue damages to compensate for the loss of their loved one. If a personal injury case would be filed if the victim were still alive, the case typically meets the standard for a wrongful death lawsuit.
