WRONGFUL DEATH

img1.jpg

The loss of a loved one is a painful and difficult experience, especially when it was caused unexpectedly by the negligence or wrongful act of another. Florida law has created a system wherein surviving family members can be compensated if the untimely loss of a loved one was a result of the negligence, carelessness, or wrongful act of another person or entity.

Common accidents that result in wrongful death claims may include:

​

  • Car accident

  • Truck accident

  • Motorcycle accident

  • Bicycle accident

  • Boating accident

  • Construction accident

  • Nursing home accident

  • Defective product accident

  • Medical malpractice accident

  • Drowning accident

 

While no amount of money can ever replace a life that has been lost, it’s important to make sure that your family’s finances are protected from medical expenses that may have been incurred as a result of the wrongful act. Additionally, you are entitled to compensation for the loss of income, support, and companionship you will now experience for the rest of your life.

​

If you believe that the untimely loss of a loved one was a result of someone else’s negligence or wrongful acts, then you should speak with an experienced attorney as soon as possible.
