Who can file a wrongful death claim ? |
 |
This will depend on your state's statutory language, but generally immediate family members (i.e. spouses, children and parents) can pursue a wrongful death claim (although minors until 18 years of age may require a "guardian ad litem" to represent their interests in court). In addition, some states may also extend the potential group of plaintiffs to grandparents, legal dependents, or members of the extended family.
If you have any questions, your best step is to consult an attorney in your area for a consultation. |
