What Is a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?
A wrongful death claim is a civil action that is brought by eligible surviving family members of someone that was killed by the negligent, reckless, or deliberate actions of another party. Arizona law allows the husband or wife, child, parent or guardian, or the representative of the deceased persons estate to file a lawsuit seeking compensation for their damages. If the deceased person was a child, either parent or the childs legal guardian may file a claim. The laws that govern wrongful death claims in Arizona are very similar to personal injury claims with a few exceptions. The timeframe, or statute of limitations to file a wrongful death claim in Arizona is two years from the date of death.
While surviving family members are often overwhelmed with grief and may not immediately think about taking legal action after a loved one has passed, it is important to consider all of the factors they may face because of the loss of the deceased. Wrongful death actions allow them to seek compensation and damages for the financial and emotional support they have lost due to the passing of their loved one due to the negligent actions of the responsible party. At Bighorn Law of Arizona we understand what a difficult time surviving family members experience when a loved one passes unexpectedly. That’s why we are committed to holding the responsible party responsible for their actions.
