    What is Wrongful Death?

    According to Florida’s Wrongful Death Act, a wrongful death occurs when a life is taken due to an unexpected and avoidable accident caused by negligence. In the case of a wrongful death, survivors — such as the deceased’s spouse, child, parents, and other family members who were dependent on the deceased for support — may have the right to receive compensation for their losses.

    Common Causes of Wrongful Deaths

    A wide assortment of accidents, if fatal, can lead to wrongful death. The most common accidents associated with wrongful deaths include:

    • Car, Truck, and Motorcycle Accidents;
    • Medical Malpractice;
    • Boat and Jet-Ski Accidents;
    • Defective Drugs and Products; and
    • Workplace Accidents.

    What Could You Recover in a Wrongful Death Lawsuit

    If you file a wrongful death claim, your family may be able to recover compensation for the following damages:

    • Past and future loss of support based on the deceased’s net income and life expectancy of both the deceased and the survivor receive the benefits;
    • Loss of companionship;
    • Pain and suffering; and
    • Medical or funeral expenses paid by any survivor.

    The amount of compensation you can recover if your lawsuit is successful depends on the circumstances of the case and the cause of the wrongful death.
