How Florida courts handle wrongful death claims …

A wrongful death claim is brought on behalf of the individual's "estate."  Eligible family members — like a spouse or child — are then identified as "survivors" who can recover compensation.

Compensation can include "economic" damages like:

  • Lost future earnings (what the deceased individual would likely have earned before retirement)
  • Medical and burial expenses

And it can include "non-economic" damages, like:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of companionship
  • Loss of mentorship to children

It can also encompass many areas of law, including negligence, estate law, creditor, subrogation, medicare and medicaid, tax and probate and personal injury. Effective wrongful death representation requires a solid grounding in those areas, as well as sensitivity to the suffering of the bereaved client.

At the Law Offices of John A. Willis, P.A., we are fully qualified to handle any wrongful death claim. We have helped many clients who are mourning from the accidental deaths of their loved ones.
