Wrongful Death Attorneys

Los Angeles wrongful death lawsuit alleges that the individual who died was killed as the result of negligence or recklessness of the defendant. The surviving members of the person’s family, most often the immediate family, could be entitled to damages awarded in such a suit.

If the death is of a close member of the family (usually an heir),such as a spouse, parent or child, the surviving members may file a wrongful death claim. Victims must be able to prove that they suffered emotional and/or financial losses and hardship as a result of the death.

Wrongful death could result or be caused by a variety of different factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

Wrongful death lawsuits have also served as a powerful tool to hold corporations and big manufacturers accountable for their defective products. For example, when a child dies because of poorly manufactured products such as toys, cribs, car seats or other children’s product, the manufacturer will be held liable for the child’s death. The substantial monies they must pay to compensate for the deaths caused by their defective products helps to ensure that the company will be more prudent in the design and testing of future products.
