Wrongful Death Claims
As difficult as it is to lose a loved one, losing someone to wrongful death is even more traumatic. A wrongful death is a death that occurred due to someone’s negligence or “wrongful” actions. A wrongful death claim is a legal action that a deceased person’s family member or a surviving spouse files as a civil claim against the person held accountable for a person’s death.
Close family or the deceased person’s surviving spouse usually files the wrongful death claim. After all, a dead person cannot file wrongful death lawsuits. The wrongful death claim naturally asserts a certain amount of negligence or wrongdoing by the accused person (also known as the defendant) to establish party fault.
The law considers the surviving family members to be beneficiaries, and every head among them has the right to monetary compensation under the wrongful death law. Under the law, we categorize wrongful death into several main categories, such as medical malpractice, product liability, defective drugs, or toxic exposure.
Medical Malpractice
A wrongful death claim resulting from medical malpractice is becoming increasingly common across the United States. Research shows that over 200,000 people die yearly due to medical negligence, which rapidly increases daily. That involves medication errors, birth injuries, general negligence, surgical malpractice, and wrong medical treatment.
Product Liability
A wrongful death action resulting from product liability means that the death occurred as a direct result of a defective product. Since suppliers flood the market with many products, we don’t know which.
Although the state has been known to bring criminal charges against Fortune 500 companies for negligent homicide, typically, no one defendant receives jail time. In fact, the corporate shareholders get stuck footing a criminal fine paid to the government, NOT the actual, surviving wrongful death victims.
Drugs and Toxic Exposure
Defective drugs are another common cause of death today. Many drugs on the market today have numerous side effects that can lead to severe complications and death. You can hit the drug manufacturer with a wrongful death lawsuit when this occurs.
Wrongful death can also result from toxic exposure, meaning that the person regularly dies due to exposure to harmful materials. This often happens at a workplace over many years.
It would help if you worked with a legal team experienced in wrongful death cases to help you claim compensation and punitive damages. We will evaluate your case and advise you on the best way to proceed to determine the wrongful death action.

We are Aggressive USA Injury Attorneys
If you cannot get an autopsy by personal request or direct query, you may need to have one court-ordered. That is where we help our clients. Contact us immediately. We will contact a professional medical examiner or forensic pathologist for a legal autopsy report after the deceased person’s death certificate and other documents.
We Have Compassion
You need an attorney with compassion after a loved one dies. We have impeccable active listening skills so that you can tell us your mind.
We Have Experience
An autopsy may be vital to prove that your loved one died because of someone else’s negligence. If you are not able to get an order for an autopsy yourself, we make this request on your behalf. We gather sufficient evidence to file a wrongful death claim and have an autopsy performed for the deceased person.
We Investigate
Since you are a relative of the deceased, you have the right to postpone a burial or cremation. Once you get the autopsy performed, the evidence might be inconclusive. In this case, the suit will require more research and investigation into the cause of death.
Leave the investigation to us. We want to help you resolve the issue and begin the healing process. It is essential to let the professionals do all of the investigation work. Ehline wrongful death lawyers know the laws and how everything works in these situations.
You may receive compensation if wrongful death lawyers prove the case to involve suspicious circumstances surrounding the untimely death case. Of course, money will never bring your loved one back, but it can pay bills and help you find closure during this difficult time.
