What Does “Wrongful Death” Mean?

When someone has died not as a result of natural causes, but due to another person’s or entity’s gross negligence or misconduct, the individual’s passing is legally considered a “wrongful death.” Numerous and different circumstances may be involved to encompass such negligence or misconduct, including medical malpractice or bad drugs; automobile, motorcycle or boating accidents; workplace accidents; product malfunction; unsafe conditions; or even outright malice.

While no amount of reparations can replace the death of a loved one, you should always demand justice, holding the responsible party or parties accountable for their actions, and obtaining proper compensation for the financial and emotional loss suffered by you and your family – including medical costs, loss of future earnings, and non-monetary damages such as loss of companionship and emotional anguish.
