Wrongful Death in West Palm Beach, Florida

In West Palm Beach, wrongful death cases are governed under the so-called “Wrongful Death Act.” According to this act, any death that results from negligence, recklessness, intent, or breach of contract by a person or an entity, such as a healthcare facility or nursing home, can be considered a wrongful death. 

Examples of a wrongful death case could include:

  • Car and motor vehicle accidents and fatalities
  • Boating or aviation accidents
  • Workplace accidents due to equipment malfunction or mechanical/electrical failure
  • Dangerous products
  • Violent crime victimization
  • Liability on property
  • Medical malpractice
  • DUIs or BUIs (boating under the influence)

Wrongful Death Lawyer: Determining Negligence

If wrongful death due to negligence is established and causally connected to death, the victim’s family may be entitled to receive some form of monetary compensation. For example, if a person dies in a nursing home due to the administration of substandard care, then their family can file a wrongful death suit and may be entitled to legal compensation. You can settle with the defendant party out of court or take the issue to court to determine a wrongful death case. 

Compensation for a wrongful death suit can be meant to reimburse those affected for things like:

  • Loss of source of future income
  • Loss of wages or productivity
  • Medical expenses
  • Funeral expenses
  • Long-term costs
  • Emotional distress, pain, suffering
  • And more

Wrongful Death Lawyer: Determining Restitution in West Palm Beach

Determining the appropriate amount of restitution in the case of a wrongful death suit is difficult, especially deciphering the value of lost companionship and suffering. A competent West Palm Beach wrongful death lawyer can help you build a strong legal case by:

  • Analyzing the scene of the accident 
  • Connecting the current case to precedent and previous cases
  • Determining negligence on the part of the defendant
  • Questioning witnesses and reviewing footage of the accident
