What Is a ‘Wrongful Death’?
Wrongful death occurs when someone’s life is taken due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity.
These tragedies can happen in various ways, including:
- Automobile Accidents: Car crashes caused by reckless or impaired drivers are one of the most common causes of wrongful death.
- Defective Products: Faulty products, such as dangerous medical devices or automotive parts, can cause fatal injuries. Manufacturers may be held liable for producing or distributing a defective product.
- Medical Malpractice: Errors made by healthcare providers, such as misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, or medication errors, can lead to wrongful death.
- Premises Liability: Property owners can be held responsible for failing to maintain safe conditions, resulting in fatal accidents such as falls or other injuries on their property.
- Workplace Accidents: Fatal accidents in dangerous industries like construction or manufacturing are often caused by unsafe working conditions or negligence.
Each wrongful death case is unique and requires a thorough investigation to determine who is responsible. Our team at Grewal Law PLLC will carefully review the circumstances of your loved one’s death to identify all liable parties and help you seek justice.
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Michigan?
In Michigan, wrongful death claims must be filed by the personal representative of the deceased’s estate. While this is often a family member, it may also be a representative appointed by the court.
Compensation from the lawsuit is awarded to surviving family members, such as:
- The deceased’s spouse and children
- The deceased’s parents
- Surviving children from the spouse of the deceased
- Any other individuals who were left property by the deceased
Our Lansing wrongful death attorneys can help you determine the best course of action for your family during this difficult time.
Compensation in a Wrongful Death Claim
Wrongful death claims are meant to provide financial relief to surviving family members. Depending on the specifics of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical expenses incurred before your loved one’s passing
- Funeral and burial costs
- Loss of future income or financial support
- Pain and suffering experienced by your loved one before death
- Emotional distress and mental anguish
- Loss of companionship and emotional support
No amount of compensation can truly replace your loved one, but securing financial recovery can help provide stability during an uncertain time.
