Memphis Wrongful Death

When an individual passes away due to the negligence or misconduct of another, the deceased's surviving relatives (called "distributees") may be able to file a wrongful death civil lawsuit seeking monetary damages. The wrongful death action is designed to provide compensation for relatives who depended upon the deceased for financial and/or emotional support. In Tennessee, distributes eligible for damages include surviving spouses, children of the deceased and, in certain cases, grandchildren of the deceased.

The state also allows wrongful death damages for reasonable funeral costs, costs of treatment and care from the incident resulting in death, costs of sorrow, mental anguish and solace, compensation for reasonably expected loss of income and services, punitive damages, and other damages the court may see fit.

At Morgan and Morgan, our compassionate Memphis wrongful death lawyers are dedicated to easing our clients' financial burdens as much as possible.

When it came to negotiating, they didn't just settle for anything. They definitely went to bat for me.
