When an individual is killed or dies out of the negligence or misconduct, or another person, the surviving family members of the deceased person can sue the person responsible for the demise under ‘wrongful death case’. Generally, a suit for wrongful death can only be filed and claimed only by the grievining envoy of the decendent’s estate. Every state in the United States has a general ‘wrongful death statue or a group of statutes as well. Generally, it is this statute that establishes the procedure to be followed in bringing actions against wrongful death. Expenses that were incurred prior to the passing away of the decedent, sufferings and pain experienced are also brought by the personal envoy.

What are the elements of wrongful death suit?

To ensure a successful claim, it is important that the following elements should be present:

a)The death of a human being that is caused with intent to cause harm or because of the negligence of another person.
b)The other family members, who are facing monetary problems due to the sudden demise of the breadwinner.
c)Appointment of personal envoy for the estate of the decedent.

Generally, it is recommended that the grieving family members should seek the help of a wrongful death lawyer, who can help for the loss suffered due to the following situations:

a)Death caused out of medical malpractice
b)Airplane or automobile accident
c)Occupational exposure to hazardous substances or conditions.
d)Criminal behavior
e)Death during a supervised activity

When there is a sudden demise of the bread winner in a family, in addition to the mental suffering the family members will experience, they will also be faced with financial instability. This is particularly true, when the deceased individual was only the bread winner in the family. So, the grieving family members can claim for these damages from the person because of whose negligence the accident or death occurred. Here, the determination of pecuniary losses becomes important.

If your loved one has died after an injury or accident caused because of the misconduct or negligence of another person, you can take legal action. However, here it would be safe to have a wrongful death lawyer by your side, so that he will guide you or will take care of the entire procedures to follow for ensuring that you can get the best compensation. The professional can help you in getting the same without visiting the court of law by negotiating with the person responsible for the death.
