Home Personal Injury Wrongful Death Compensation in a Wrongful Death Case

You deserve compensation: Choose an experienced wrongful death attorney

No amount of money can erase the grief family members feel when they lose a loved one due to negligence. Compensation in a wrongful death case, however, can help cover very real expenses that accumulate after the death of a loved one. While every case is different, the following are some damages you may be entitled to in a wrongful death case:

Medical expenses related to the injury
Funeral expenses
Loss of income, depending on the age and household status of the person who died
Pain and suffering (experienced by the deceased)
Emotional trauma of the surviving family members

In some cases, punitive damages may be part of the case. These are damages meant to punish a negligent individual or party. While rare, punitive damages may apply in cases of extreme disregard for human life or safety.
