The Houston Wrongful Death Lawyer knows that the death of a family member can be overwhelming. The legal system can protect the rights of the family members who are suffering due to the negligence of a person or company.

Wrongful death as a legal term is a death that has been caused by the fault of another person. For example, deaths caused by drunk drivers, negligent companies, dangerous products, or unsafe drugs may be considered under the law as "wrongful deaths".

Wrongful death lawsuits or claims are generally filed by the spouse, children or parents of the decedent.

Damages that may be recovered:

• Immediate expenses associated with the death (e.g., medical and funeral expenses)
• Lost benefits, such as medical insurance
• Loss of victim's anticipated future earnings until retirement
• 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 of family members
• Punitive damages, intended to punish wrongdoers and discourage them from harming others in the future

The Houston Wrongful Death Lawyer can discuss with you the recoveries possible in your case.
