In order to have a valid wrongful death lawsuit, certain elements are required and must be met. Aside from the death of an individual, it must be proven that it was due to the negligence of another, that surviving family members are having financial problems as a result of the person's death, and that a personal representative has been appointed to bring the suit on behalf of the deceased person's estate.
Usually, those eligible for filing a wrongful death lawsuit are the spouse, children, or parents. Monetary compensation may be awarded to cover any harm and pain and suffering that the deceased individual may have experienced before passing away.
