Wrongful Death is defined as the untimely death of an individual as a direct result of the fault or negligence of another individual, company or entity. In a civil suit, the cause of action for wrongful death is generally not criminal conduct, but is either reckless or careless. The consequences of a wrongful death on a family is devastating in terms of the loss of familial companionship, guidance, and/or financial support, both current and future, and such losses may be recovered by immediate family members, siblings, and members of the decedent’s estate, who have suffered financial and economic (pecuniary) loss due to the wrongful death.
