Wrongful death involves a claim when someone else's negligence results in the death of another. The death could occur in many different situations including automobile accidents, defective products, medical negligence, construction accidents, or other situations.
Wrongful death claims are brought by the decedent's estate and the recovery of damages is distributed to the decedent's heirs at law, usually their spouse and children.
The death could involve individuals of all ages including children.
