If you have lost a loved as the result of someone's negligence or recklnessness, you will have to consider bringing a claim for wrongful death.

 

Normally, an injured party can bring a lawsuit against the party who caused his or her injury. But when that party dies because of an accident, it is up to the victim's family to bring a wrongful death claim. 

 

Families usually bring wrongful death claims to recover for the loss of the income the deceased person provided when they were alive. However, wrongful death damages are not limited to loss of income
