There are many financial burdens that fall on surviving family members and these costs can easily overwhelm them.
They include:
That’s why it’s important for family members to call a personal injury attorney soon after a wrongful death so that they can worry about the costs while you tend to your family and allow yourself time to grieve. In some cases, the victim’s family may be entitled to punitive damages if the responsible party was grossly negligent in their responsibility for the accident.
Children, spouses, parents, and other dependent family members may seek damages for wrongful death in Florida.
Wrongful death can occur from nearly any type of accident, including:
Sometimes the responsible party in a wrongful death is not always evident. The bar that sold an obviously drunk patron another drink can be legally and morally responsible for the damage that patron caused from a drunk driving accident.
It is important to be aware that while some cases may be resolved quickly, sometimes taking only several months, it is much more likely that it will take longer – most cases are active for an average of one to four years. During this time, our team at Raymond Ravis Attorney at Law is prepared to help you every step of the way.
