Wrongful Death
WHEN A LOVED ONE DIES BY THE WRONGFUL CONDUCT OF ANOTHER
If a loved one has died as a result of the negligence of another, the Florida Wrongful Death Act recognizes great harm is done and requires compensation to the victim’s estate and survivors. Surviving family members include spouses, children, parents, or siblings. Our attorneys have successfully handled these cases for almost 60 years.
What kind of compensation can I seek in wrongful death?
With wrongful death cases, surviving family members may be eligible to seek compensation due to loss and damages, such as loss of future wages, medical expenses prior to death, and loss of companionship.
How much time do I have to file a wrongful death case?
If your loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, it’s important to act promptly. There is a statute of limitations that establishes a time limit in which you can bring a wrongful death lawsuit against the negligent party.
