What is wrongful death?
A wrongful death is the unnecessary death of an individual which results from the negligence of a person or organization, either directly or indirectly. A wrongful death claim is filed by a lawyer on behalf of the spouse, children, parents, or other beneficiaries of the deceased party against the person or organization responsible for the death. Wrongful death claims often result from automobile accidents and motorcycle accidents, but on-the-job workplace deaths and deaths due to medical malpractice frequently result in wrongful death suits as well. In cases where a person’s death was caused by a defective or unsafe product, product liability law may place the manufacturer or designer of the product at fault, and under premises liability law the owner of the property where a wrongful death occurred may be held responsible if the death was caused by unsafe conditions.
Because the law is so complex, it’s crucial to choose a wrongful death attorney with the skill and experience to guide you through the legal process. If you have suffered the unfortunate loss of a loved one, wrongful death attorney Frank Eidson can assist your family from Melbourne, Orlando, and many other Central Florida communities using his extensive knowledge of personal injury law to help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
Damages in Wrongful Death Cases
In wrongful death cases, two types of damages are awarded to family members of the deceased. Compensatory damages are intended to reimburse the victim’s family for financial losses and expenses incurred as a result of the death, including medical expenses, loss of wages, and funeral costs. Punitive damages are intended to punish the person or organization responsible for the death and deter the liable party from engaging in similar negligent actions in the future. In both cases, settlements can often assist family members so they can achieve a sense of closure and move forward with their lives.
