If your loved one sustained fatal injuries due to the negligence or wrongful act of another person, you have the right to sue all liable parties for the resulting damages. Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation for lost income and benefits, funeral expenses, medical bills, and loss of consortium. But before you can recover a single dollar, you must gather evidence of both liability and damages, and you must do so as soon as possible.
When it comes to wrongful death claims, every state has strict statutes of limitations. These laws give plaintiffs a limited amount of time in which to file a formal lawsuit against the parties responsible for their loved one’s death.
