Who Can File A Wrongful Death Lawsuit?

Florida law allows immediate family members to seek compensation after the death of a loved one that was caused by a negligent or intentional act of another. Most wrongful death claims are initiated by or on behalf of the spouse, children, adopted children and other family members of the deceased.

However, in some unique situations, someone other than the deceased’s immediate family may be entitled to recover damages if they relied upon the deceased for support.

If you are unsure if you are entitled to file a suit, contact us today. Through a free, no obligation consultation, we will discuss your specific circumstances and determine if you have a case.

Time is limited for filing a wrongful death suit. If you do not act within this limited timeframe, you will lose the opportunity to pursue compensation. Contact Gordon & Partners today to get started on your case immediately.

Recovering Compensation

We know that no amount of compensation can bring back a lost loved one. However, recovering damages after such a loss can help ease the financial burden of funeral expenses, lost wages and more.

Although the level of financial compensation that can be awarded is unique in every case, some of the most common forms of recoverable damages include:

Compensation for the lost income the deceased would have provided
Medical bills, funeral expenses, burial charges and other expenses associated with a death
Lost benefits such as insurance and retirement
Pain and suffering
Mental anguish suffered by surviving family members
A loss of emotional support
Loss of companionship
Loss of care, protection and guidance a child or spouse would have received from the deceased

In cases in which gross negligence or reckless or intentional acts led to a wrongful death, punitive damages may be awarded. These damages are a form of punishment for the defendant and a way to discourage others from engaging in similar behavior.

Our Palm Beach Gardens wrongful death lawyers know the hardships that result from the death of a loved one. We will fight tirelessly until we secure fair compensation that takes into account everything that was lost along with your loved one.
