What Is Wrongful Death?

Wrongful death occurs when someone’s life is taken due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. 

In Michigan, surviving family members may be entitled to compensation through a wrongful death claim if they have lost a loved one in an accident caused by:

• Motor vehicle accidents
• Medical malpractice
• Workplace accidents
• Defective products
• Premises liability

Each wrongful death case is unique, and our attorneys will conduct a thorough investigation to determine who is liable and ensure that your family’s rights are protected.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Michigan?

In Michigan, a wrongful death lawsuit must be filed by the personal representative of the deceased’s estate. While this is often a close family member, it may also be an individual appointed by the court. 

Compensation from a wrongful death claim is distributed to surviving family members:

• The deceased’s spouse and children
• The deceased’s parents
• Surviving siblings, grandchildren, or other heirs

Our Grand Rapids wrongful death attorneys can guide you through the legal process and help you determine who is eligible to file the claim on behalf of your family.

Compensation in a Wrongful Death Claim

Although financial compensation cannot undo the pain of losing a loved one, it can help provide the financial support needed to cover expenses and secure your family’s future. 

Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical bills related to your loved one’s injuries before their death
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Loss of financial support and future income
• Loss of companionship and emotional support
• Pain and suffering experienced by your loved one before their passing
• Emotional distress and mental anguish for surviving family members

Our attorneys at Grewal Law PLLC are committed to securing the maximum compensation possible to help ease your family’s financial burdens during this difficult time.
