Wrongful Death
We extend our deepest sympathy.
Florida wrongful death claims
The common law that we inherited from England did not recognize a right to seek damages for the death of a family member. But it does not make sense that a person who negligently injures someone else should have to pay only if the victim lives. Therefore, Florida, like other states, has enacted a wrongful death statute that allows such claims to be made by family members and dependents. However, the statute has certain procedural requirements that may limit recovery if they are not observed. If you have lost a loved one to accidental death, it is very important that you seek experienced legal representation to make sure you and other family members are all fully compensated for your loss.
