Seeking Justice After a Wrongful Death: How Lammers Law Group Can Help
What is Wrongful Death?
Wrongful death occurs when an individual loses their life due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct. These cases not only involve legal complexities but also bring emotional and financial hardships to grieving families. Unlike criminal homicide cases, wrongful death claims are civil lawsuits seeking financial compensation for the losses suffered by the victim’s surviving family members.
Common Causes of Wrongful Death
Wrongful death claims can arise from a variety of incidents, including:
Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents caused by negligent or reckless drivers
Medical malpractice, such as misdiagnosis, surgical errors, or failure to treat
Workplace accidents, including unsafe working conditions or machinery failures
Defective products that lead to fatal injuries
Nursing home abuse or neglect resulting in preventable deaths
Criminal acts, such as assault, manslaughter, or homicide
In these situations, families have the right to hold the responsible parties accountable and seek justice for their loved ones.
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?
Each state has its own laws regarding who can file a wrongful death lawsuit, but typically, the following parties are eligible:
The spouse of the deceased
The children of the deceased
The parents of the deceased (if the victim was unmarried or had no children)
In some cases, a personal representative of the deceased’s estate
Wrongful death claims are time-sensitive, as statutes of limitations apply. Acting quickly is crucial to preserving evidence and protecting your rights.
Damages Available in a Wrongful Death Lawsuit
Families may be entitled to various types of compensation, including:
Medical expenses related to the fatal injur
Funeral and burial costs
Loss of income and future earnings the deceased would have provided
Pain and suffering experienced by the deceased before passing
Punitive damages in cases of egregious negligence or misconduct
At Lammers Law Group, we fight for full and fair compensation to help families rebuild their lives after an unimaginable loss.
