Question:
How do I determine the value of a wrongful death case?
Answer:
When determining the value of a wrongful death claim in Florida, you have to look at several factors. We have families come to us who are heartbroken, they’ve lost a loved one, and they ask us, “What is the value of this case?” We tell them that you have to look at multiple different factors. You have to look for who is at fault for the incident.
There are many different kinds of wrongful death cases. They can be a negligent security case, where a loved one is killed on a property where there wasn’t proper security, such as a gas station, where they know that there’s prior problems with shootings and someone is shot at a gas station. You can have a wrongful death claim from a car accident, motorcycle accident, trucking accident. You can have a wrongful death case from a fall-down, and we’ve recently handled a fall-down wrongful death case where we recovered over $10 million. The value all depends on how you can prove who was at fault, whether it be the premises owner, whether it be the truck driver, whether it be the vehicle driver.
The second step is what are the damages that are involved, that is pain and suffering, loss of the familiar relationship. There are different family members who have different rights under the wrongful death act to make different claims for damages. You need an attorney that can navigate those things, and our firm has been helping people navigate wrongful death cases for a loved one for nearly 60 years. Please reach out to us if you have any questions about a wrongful death case.
