Facts about Wrongful Death Claims

An accidental death of a person may be considered wrongful if it resulted from a negligent behavior of the defendant. As covered under the principles of the “Tort Law“, the families of the victims must first be able to prove the following elements of their cases in order to recover suitable compensations:

• the defendant’s actions or inaction has partially or entirely caused the death of the victim


• the defendant has been negligent or has strict liability over the victims safety


• the victim has his/her eligible beneficiaries or survivors such as his/her spouse, children, parents and other lawful dependents


• the victim’s death has caused monetary damages for his/her family

In a wrongful death claim, the victim’s survivors may recover these damages:

• Medical and Funeral expenses


• The victim’s estimated future earnings depending on his/her capabilities or job and current life expectancy


• The amount of the victim’s lost benefits such as his/her pension and medical insurance


• Loss of inheritance


• The survivor’s mental pain and suffering


• Loss of companionship


• General and punitive damages
