What is a Wrongful Death Claims?

By Samer Habbas, Esq
In wrongful Death

If the negligence or unjust actions of an individual or other entity results in someone being killed, a wrongful death lawsuit may be filed against them, and they may be liable to pay monetary damages to the victim’s family. Unlike “normal” negligence lawsuits, which are usually filed by the party injured by the negligence, wrongful death claims differ from these in several ways. These differences can be quite complex and situational and are best described by an experienced California wrongful death lawyer such as Samer Habbas.

In the simplest terms, there are four elements of a wrongful death claim. The elements include the following:

A death that was entirely or partly caused by the conduct of the defendant

The defendant was negligent and strictly liable for causing the victim’s death

There are surviving children or other dependents

The victim’s death has resulted in monetary damages

Again, the specifics of what differentiates a wrongful death claim from other types of negligence claims can be very situational. An experienced Southern California wrongful death attorney like Mr. Habbas would best describe this information.
