Wrongful Death Claims

We Help You Seek Justice for Your Family’s Loss

The law is specific about who may sue for wrongful death damages. The individual bringing the wrongful death claim must be the parent, surviving spouse or child. In some instances of wrongful death claims with no familial claim to damages, a plaintiff ad litem with suitable entitlement to damages may be appointed by the court.
