Who can sue for “wrongful death” of a loved one?
Almost every State in the Nation has a statute that allows a lawsuit to be initiated by the relatives of a person, who died as a result of wrongful act. The idea of such a lawsuit is behind the nature of”wrongful death”; that it is also injuring to the people dependent upon the deceased for emotional and financial support.
