Charles Injury Law
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 170,000 people die each year in the United States from unintentional injuries, making it the third leading cause of death nationwide. Tragically, many of these deaths are the direct result of another person’s negligence or carelessness.
Losing a loved one to wrongful death is one of life’s most devastating experiences. Families are left to cope with overwhelming grief, sudden financial strain, and the loss of emotional support. In addition to the heartbreak, there may be costly medical expenses, funeral arrangements, and other unexpected burdens.
While no amount of money can replace your loved one, pursuing a wrongful death claim can provide the financial resources you need to help rebuild your life. At Charles Injury Law, our Fort Lauderdale wrongful death attorneys are compassionate, aggressive, and dedicated to holding negligent parties accountable.
Wrongful Death
Wrongful death can happen unexpectedly, in almost any setting, when someone’s negligence, carelessness, or misconduct causes the loss of life. While laws require individuals and businesses to act responsibly, these tragedies still occur far too often. Some of the most common causes include:
Surgical mistakes, misdiagnosis, medication errors, birth injuries, and other negligent medical actions.
Collisions caused by speeding, distracted driving, drunk driving, or other reckless behavior.
Fatalities from falls, lack of safety equipment, poor training, or unsafe work environments, especially in high-risk industries like construction.
Deadly incidents from slip and falls, electrocution, falling objects, or unsafe property conditions.
Wrongful Death
In Florida, a wrongful death claim must be filed by the personal representative of the deceased person’s estate. If the deceased did not designate a representative in a will or estate plan, the court will appoint one. The personal representative files the claim on behalf of both the estate and the surviving family members, listing each person who may have an interest in the case.
Those eligible to recover damages may include:
A child born out of wedlock may recover damages if their mother dies. If the father dies, the child may only recover if the father was legally recognized and supported them.
Damages may cover:
