Wrongful Death
Wrongful death is a legal term used to describe a situation in which an individual dies due to the negligence or wrongdoing of another person or entity. This includes deaths caused by car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and more.
If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another party, you may be entitled to seek compensation for your losses through a wrongful death lawsuit. This type of legal action can help you and your family cope with the financial and emotional burdens that often accompany losing a loved one.
To prove wrongful death, it must be proven that the defendant's negligence caused the end, that the deceased would have had grounds for a personal injury claim if they had survived, and that the survivors have suffered damages due to the death.
In a wrongful death lawsuit, the deceased's family may recover damages for expenses related to the death, such as funeral and burial costs, as well as for the loss of income, companionship, and other losses.
If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another party, it is crucial to speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer in Manhattan as soon as possible. A wrongful death attorney can help you understand your rights and options and guide you through the legal process to seek the compensation you deserve.
