Not every death will lead to a wrongful death claim. A wrongful death lawsuit is appropriate when a person's death is caused by the wrongful act, neglect, carelessness, or default of another.
If someone's action, or inaction, directly led to the death of your loved one, you may have grounds to file a wrongful death claim.
A wrongful death claim is a civil lawsuit, distinct from any criminal charges. It is filed by the surviving family members of the deceased to seek compensation for their losses.
The goal of the claim is to hold the responsible party accountable and to provide financial stability for the family left behind.
The first step is to consult with a wrongful death attorney near you, one who will fully investigate the circumstances of your loved one's death, gather evidence, and identify the liable parties.
These accident lawyers will then file a lawsuit on your behalf and handle all communication with insurance companies and opposing counsel, and the case may be settled out of court or proceed to trial.
In Texas, a wrongful death lawsuit can be filed by the surviving spouse, children, or parents of the deceased. These family members can file the claim individually or as a group.
If these immediate family members do not file a wrongful death claim within three months of the victim's passing, the personal representative of the deceased's estate may do so.
