The unexpected death of a loved one can be physically, emotionally, and financially overwhelming for a family. Wrongful death can also be frustrating when it is caused by the careless, reckless, and negligent conduct of another person or business. Family members may be able to step into the shoes of their lost loved one to commence a wrongful death action for pain and suffering, lost financial support, and loss of society, guidance, and protection. Compensation from a wrongful death action can be used to help family members financially support themselves in the same manner that their lost loved one would have.

Wrongful death cases are not like normal personal injury actions. These cases all start by having a personal representative appointed by a court. Under Florida law, the death of a loved one must have been caused by the actions of a negligent party that would have allowed the deceased to have a personal injury claim against the negligent party. This can be a complicated case to prove because your loved one is not able to testify as to what happened.
Experts are generally needed to reconstruct the accident and the injuries. A legal team also needs to obtain all medical records and police reports or investigations, as well as look for evidence such as surveillance videos. You need to have a family member appointed as a personal representative and protect the rights of your loved one.
