What is wrongful death?

Wrongful death, as a legal term, is a death that was caused by the fault of another person. For example, deaths caused by drunk driving or a defective or dangerous product may be considered "wrongful deaths" under the law.

A wrongful death lawsuit or claim is generally filed by family members or beneficiaries of the decedent. In some instances, these claims are filed in order to obtain monetary damages to cover the earnings the deceased person would have provided. Other damages that may be recovered include:

• Expenses associated with the death, such as medical and funeral bills
• Lost benefits, such as insurance, from the death
• Loss of inheritance from an untimely death
• Pain, suffering or mental anguish suffered by the survivor of the decedent
• Loss of companionship, care or protection
• Punitive damages, which are intended to punish wrongdoers and prevent them from harming others
