A wrongful death claim is a specific kind of personal injury claim.When someone dies due to the fault of another individual or entity, the family of the victim may be entitled to a wrongful death lawsuit. Wrongful death suits can involve all types of fatal accidents ranging from car crashes to liability cases and even medical malpractice. Here at Fulmer Sill, we hope to help bring clarity to those experiencing an unexpected loss.

Losing A Loved One

There are many costs involved when a loved one is lost. There are numerous immediate costs, such as medical expenses resulting from the injury as well as funeral expenses for the victim. Long-term burdens can affect the victim’s family, including emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship, loss of earnings, assistance and more.

Who Can Seek Justice

A wrongful death claim must be filed by a representative on behalf of the victim. Designated beneficiaries may include immediate family members, including spouses, children, adopted children, parents of unmarried children, and distant family members such as siblings or grandparents. If you are one of these people, you are qualified to seek justice for the loss of life of your loved one.
