Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?

This is a frequent question we get from clients. This depends on which state the victim died and many other factors. As a basic rule, the following survivors are usually able to sue for wrongful death:

  • Immediate family members (children, parents, guardians, siblings, adoptees)
  • Financial dependants for lost support or care
  • Distant family members such as cousins and grandparents
  • Spouses or long-term partners

There are more than 170,000 unintentional deaths each year in the U.S. If you're financially dependent on someone that has died, it's essential to reach out to a wrongful death attorney as soon as possible. Losing income, childcare, and other support can cause major harm and financial stress. Halvorsen Klote has helped victims with these sorts of cases. You can view our testimonials here.


Who Can Be Sued for Wrongful Death?

There's a few liable parties depending on the case. The law varies based on which state the death occurs. In general, claimants have been potentially victimized by whichever parties are at fault. This can include a driving company's employer if you're in an auto accident, the company responsible for any roadwork, an employee, government agencies, manufacturers and distributors, a building owner, and others.

Who is at fault depends on where the accident happened, any liability coverage, and other factors. It is essential to contact an experienced wrongful death attorney that can assess the case and make sure all damages are covered.
