Everett Wrongful Death Lawyer

How do you know if there is a potential wrongful death case to obtain justice for the victim?

A wrongful death occurs when the negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm of another person or entity leads to the death of an individual. Wrongful death claims allow the estate, usually the immediate family members of the deceased victim, to file a claim or lawsuit against the party responsible for the death. The personal representative of the victim’s estate is the only one who can bring a wrongful death suit. While nothing can replace the loss of a loved one, this lawsuit allows family members, such as a spouse, parent, or children of the victim, to obtain monetary damages for emotional and financial harm.

To bring a successful suit for wrongful death, the following elements must be present:

• The death of a human being caused by the negligence, recklessness, or intent of the defendant.
• It must be proven that the defendant in a wrongful death case owed a duty to the deceased victim. The plaintiff will need to prove that the defendant owed the plaintiff a duty and the defendant breached that duty.
• A plaintiff must also prove that the defendant negligently caused the victims death.
• There must be a family member with measurable damages because of the death, such as pain and suffering of the victim, medical bills, or loss of income and earnings.
• Finally, there must be a personal representative for the victim’s estate.

What do you do after a wrongful death has occurred?

After a wrongful death occurs, you may not know what to do or where to turn. It can be almost impossible for a personal representative to recover anything on their own. While no amount of money will make up for the victim’s death, monetary value is the only remedy the law provides. Retaining the top medical experts, economists, and life planners is important to obtaining the best recovery.
