It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
In New York, the guidelines for pursuing a wrongful death claim are distinctly set out. According to state statutes, if someone’s death occurs due to the negligence, misconduct, or intentional act of another individual or entity, a wrongful death claim may be viable. For such a claim to be considered, the circumstances must be such that had the deceased survived, they would have been eligible to initiate a personal injury lawsuit based on the incurred injuries.Â
Additionally, the claim’s validity hinges on the presence of beneficiaries or dependents who have faced tangible financial hardships because of the person’s death. Essentially, there are four components to successfully filing a wrongful death claim in New York:Â
In general, eligible beneficiaries and family members have two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit. The legalities regarding who is able to initiate such claims can depend on the particular circumstances of your case, so it’s vital to act quickly and consult an experienced wrongful death attorney to determine what your legal options are.Â
When dealing with the aftermath of a loved one’s untimely passing, no amount of money can truly compensate for the emotional and personal loss experienced. However, New York law recognizes the financial and practical impact that such a loss can have on a family and provides avenues for obtaining compensation in wrongful death cases. Specifically, the law states that beneficiaries have the right to obtain “fair and just compensation for pecuniary injuries resulting from the decedent’s death to the persons for whose benefit the action is brought.”
This compensation encompasses the tangible monetary losses suffered by the decedent’s beneficiaries or next of kin, including:Â
The grief, financial burden, and legal responsibilities surrounding an unexpected loss can be daunting and confusing. That’s where a dedicated Bronx wrongful death attorney steps in. Attorneys possess the wealth of experience to navigate New York’s complex legal landscape, ensuring that the rights of the bereaved are upheld.
