Commonly, a wrongful death is caused by another's negligence, recklessness, malpractice, or inaction. A pedestrian killed by a drunk driver or a child struck and killed by a careless motorist are two examples of wrongful deaths. In such cases, the families of the deceased can file wrongful death personal injury lawsuits on their loved ones' behalf. These civil lawsuits, which do not bear any criminal charges, help families recover damages for pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, loss of companionship, medical costs, and other expenses. If you have lost a loved one to wrongful death, you may be eligible for a monetary recovery. At the Law Offices of Mark E. Salomone, we have experience in aggressively representing clients with wrongful death cases.
