No. Each state determines who is eligible to bring a wrongful death suit. In some states, only a child, spouse, or immediate family member is allowed. Other states allow grandparents or other relatives. There may also restrictions on filing when one family member would be suing another family member for wrongful death. An attorney can help determine if you or any other family member is permitted to file a lawsuit for wrongful death.
