Fort Myers Wrongful Death Attorney
How Do I Know if I Can File a Wrongful Death Suit in Fort Myers?
When a horrible accident or loss of life occurs at the hands of a negligent third party, the family members of victims have a “right to action” that is protected by Florida Statute 768.19. The law says that survivors of deceased persons killed in a wrongful, negligent, or otherwise illegal action that wasn’t their fault can seek damages from the liable party. Depending on the victim’s cause of death, the estate of the deceased can file a wrongful death civil suit to seek compensation to cover their losses, including:
Wrongful death losses typically include:
- Lost Wages
- Loss of Companionship
- Funeral Costs
- Mental Anguish, Pain & Suffering
A wrongful death lawsuit requires the liable party to court to answer for their part in the loss of life in the case. Additionally, a wrongful death suit can be filed to ensure the liable party is held accountable for their negligent behavior.
