When a sudden, unexpected family death occurs, calling a lawyer may be the last thing on your mind.

But, as difficult as it is to think about, people lose their lives every day due to negligence. Wrongful death is a term that describes a situation where someone’s negligent behavior results in another person’s death.  Sometimes the negligence results in an injury that later leads to death.

The most common causes of wrongful death claims are car and truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, drunk drivers (dram shop), medical malpractice, aviation accidents, defective products, construction defects, and intentional assaults.

Family members of someone who has suddenly passed away have more than just the emotional trauma to deal with; they also have funeral and burial expenses as well as bills from hospitals and medical treatment providers. The family members of the deceased are entitled to the following compensation:

• Pain and suffering for the survivors
• Loss of companionship
• Loss of future earnings anticipated over the lifetime of the victim
• Benefits lost due to the victim’s death (life insurance, RRSP)
• Reimbursement for burial and funeral expenses
• Reimbursement for medical expenses incurred
• Reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred
