Wrongful Death Settlements
A wrongful death is defined as the death of a human being as the result
of a wrongful act of another person. Such wrongful acts include: negligence
(like careless driving), an intentional attack such as assault and/or
battery, a death in the course of another crime, vehicular manslaughter,
manslaughter or murder. Wrongful death is the basis for a lawsuit (wrongful
death action) against the party or parties who caused the death filed
on behalf of the members of the family who have lost the company and support
of the deceased. Thus, a child might be entitled to compensation for the
personal loss of a father as well as the amount of financial support the
child would have received from the now-dead parent while a minor, a wife
would recover damages for loss of her husband's love and companionship
and a lifetime of expected support, while a parent would be limited to
damages for loss of companionship but not support. A lawsuit for wrongful
death may be filed by the executor or administrator of the estate of the
deceased or by the individual beneficiaries (family members).
