Facts about Wrongful Death
The financial compensation awarded in wrongful death cases is dependent on many factors. In most cases, Plaintiffs can potentially recover damages for medical and funeral expenses, pain and suffering from the loss of a loved one and other financial losses associated with the wrongful death of a loved one such as loss of their income.
The statute of limitations for wrongful death under Florida law is 2 years which is shorter than the regular 4 year statute of limitations for personal injury claims not involving a death. For this reason, when a case involves wrongful death it is important to move quickly in protecting your rights.
In order to bring a claim for wrongful death, a Probate Estate must be set up for the deceased person and a personal representative must be appointed to represent the Estate. El bufete de abogados de Brush & Coyle, located in downtown Lakeland Florida, is experienced in these matters and can assist your family in bringing a wrongful death claim.
