According to the National Safety Council, accidents are the leading cause of death among persons aged 38 years or younger. No matter what the exact cause of accidental death may be, wrongful death claims can be made. Such a claim can be decided as wrongful death when an individual has accidentally died from a variety of different accidents: auto/motorcycle/bus/train/truck accidents, prescription drugs, boating accidents, swimming accidents, slip and fall accidents, construction accidents, and mesothelioma are some of the different wrongful death causes. You may qualify to file a wrongful death lawsuit if you are a member of the victims immediate family (parent, spouse, and children), or a stepparent, grandparent, or dependent. However, for a minor to file they may need an adult guardian to bring the claim to court. The death of a loved one not only causes emotional stress, but financial as well. By filing a wrongful death lawsuit you may be compensated for financial damages from medical and funeral costs, lost benefits, inheritance loss, loss of companionship and support, pain and suffering, lost wages including future earnings, and that of mental anguish caused by a family member's death. If this has happened to you, it is important you seek legal council and advice of an experienced wrongful death attorney so that you and your loved ones rights are protected.
