What is a “Wrongful Death?”

Not all deaths, of course, are wrongful ones.

Wrongful death suits are for deaths due to someone else’s negligence. If your loved one was killed because of someone else’s mistake, you may have a wrongful death case.

What is a Wrongful Death Claim?

Wrongful death claims are a type of personal injury lawsuit. Just like personal injury cases, these are filed in civil court, and filed by one of the surviving relatives.

What Happens When Filing a Wrongful Death Claim?

Start by hiring an experienced personal injury attorney. That attorney will represent you throughout the process, pursuing the person or entity responsible for your loved one’s wrongful death.

Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?

In Texas, only spouses and children of the deceased may file a wrongful death claim. Children must be over 18 to file a claim.

Types of Wrongful Death Cases

Workplace Accidents

Not all workplace deaths are wrongful ones. However, if the employer was negligent in some way, you may have a wrongful death case.

Vehicle Accidentals

If your loved one was killed in a car accident where the other person is responsible, you’ll be able to file a wrongful death suit for both financial and non-financial damages.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents

The number of pedestrians and cyclists hit by vehicles continues to rise. If your loved one was killed when walking or biking, you may be able to file a wrongful death suit.

Premise Liability Accidents

Texas property owners bear responsibility to ensure their property is safe. If they have neglected to do that and it resulted in the death of your loved one, you may be able to file a claim.
