WHAT IS WRONGFUL DEATH? A “Wrongful Death” is a death that occurs as a result of the negligence or other wrongful conduct of another person or business entity. Many times, wrongful death will go undiscovered without a thorough and comprehensive investigation. A wrongful death claim can arise in a variety of circumstances including, but not limited to, automobile accidents, defective products, construction accidents, 18-wheeler accidents, premises liability, medical malpractice, and/or wrongful shootings. In Texas a wrongful death claim is generally pursued by the descendant’s spouse, parents, and/or children. These claims are designed to ensure compensation for families of wrongful death victims as well as provide an incentive for others to act more carefully and safely with the health and welfare of others. An experienced wrongful death lawyer will have the knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to ensure the responsible party is brought to justice for their improper conduct. Potential damages recoverable in wrongful death claims typically include the loss of support, services, love, companionship, inheritance, comfort, and society. “Damages” is a legal term used to describe the money obtained from the negligent party or their insurance company.
