Wrongful Death

Wrongful deaths are described when a someone dies or was killed due to negligence, carelessness, misconduct or wrongdoing committed by a medical physician, medical facility, company or person. Some cases of wrongful deaths, the victims and or beneficiaries may be entitled to a form of compensation for their loss.

Most wrongful death lawsuits shadow in the wake of criminal trials, using similar evidence but with a lower standard of proof. Nevertheless, someone found liable for wrongful death may or may not be convicted of a crime associated with that death.

Not all wrongful death investigations start as such, in some cases, an investigator will be conducting another investigation such as homicide, crime scene or accident investigation, personal investigator or product investigation only to discover evidence pointing to wrongful death. At this point, the investigator may share and discuss his findings with the victims surviving family or family attorney so that they can pursue whatever legal action they decide is appropriate.
