There is no experience as dark and bitter as losing a loved one because of negligence, recklessness, a deliberate action, or misconduct of another person or entity.
Not only must the surviving family members struggle to accept their loved one is no longer with them, but they also have to force themselves to come to terms with the often-violent manner of their loved one’s death. Having them face additional difficulties, in terms of financial losses, is beyond cruel.
What is considered wrongful death?
Wrongful death occurs when another person is killed because of someone else’s negligence or misconduct.
The following motor vehicle accidents often result in serious injuries, and sometimes, death:
Medical malpractice occurs due to the negligence of a medical professional and results in a patient’s death. Medical malpractice includes the misdiagnosis of a health condition, errors committed during surgery, premature hospital discharge of a patient, and administration of a fatal anesthetic dosage.
Product liability wrongful death happens when a product’s defective design, manufacturing defects, and inadequate warning labels result in a person’s death.
