Wrongful Death

Wrongful death is defined as the loss of life to a person as a result of another’s intentional or unintentional actions.

If an individual or entity causes harm to another person and the injuries sustained result in that person’s death, then the individual may be held liable for wrongful death. A wrongful death claim has no correlation with criminal action, meaning that even if the defendant is cleared of criminal charges, the victim’s family may still be able to pursue a civil action for wrongful death.

Though pursuing a lawsuit will not bring your loved one back, Conway Law will ensure that those responsible are held accountable for their actions. Our team can help relieve the financial burden placed on you and your family by bringing the responsible individual or parties to justice.

Who is Liable in A Wrongful Death Claim?

A wrongful death claim may be filed against anyone or any institution that was legally at fault for a person’s death. This can include:

  • Individuals

  • Medical Institutions

  • Companies

Whether it’s a car accident, a truck wreck, a medical malpractice suit, or a premises liability action, the surviving family members may file a wrongful death claim for the full value of the deceased person's life from the deceased person's perspective.
