Compensation

Money cannot bring back a deceased loved one nor can it take away a family members anguish and grief but it can help a grieving family to get through very difficult times. It does not matter whether your loved one was the primary breadwinner in the family, a stay at home parent or homemaker, or an innocent child that never had the opportunity to earn a paycheck, a wrongful death victim’s remaining family members may be entitled to compensation from the party that is guilty of causing their death. Some of the reasons a family may seek compensation for the wrongful death of a loved one include but are not limited to:

– Emergency services
– Medical bills
– Hospital bills
– Funeral and burial expenses
– Loss of income
– Loss of childcare and/or household management
– Loss of consortium (loss of spousal companionship)
– Loss of parental guidance
– Loss of sibling companionship

In addition to compensatory damages, which are damages measured by the harm suffered by an injured person, a family may be entitled to punitive damages. Punitive damages are awarded in certain circumstances as damages that are awarded in addition to actual damages. Typically, punitive damages are awarded as a punishment to the defendant, when the defendant’s behavior is found to be especially harmful. In the case of tort liability, if the plaintiff can prove that the defendant engaged in wanton and willful misconduct, the court may choose to assign the defendant to pay punitive damages to the defendant.
