Wrongful Death
Wrongful Death Attorney
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?
In Arizona, a wrongful death claim may be brought by a surviving spouse, child, or parent of the deceased. This legal action seeks compensation and monetary damages from the individual, company, or government entity responsible for the wrongful death of a loved one.
If the death was caused by someone’s deliberate, reckless, or negligent actions, they can be held legally accountable.
When a wrongful death occurs, our experienced attorneys are here to support you. We’ll investigate the facts, consult with expert witnesses, and determine which parties and insurance companies should be held liable.
There are several types of damages that may be recovered in a wrongful death case under Arizona law. A jury can award compensation to the plaintiff and other beneficiaries of the deceased for the following losses:
- The loss of love, affection, companionship, care, protection, and guidance from your loved one—both from the time of their passing and into the future.
- The emotional pain, grief, sorrow, anguish, stress, and mental suffering already endured, as well as what is likely to be experienced moving forward.
- The loss of income and services already incurred due to the death, along with those reasonably expected to be lost in the future.
- The reasonable costs of funeral and burial arrangements.
- The reasonable expenses for necessary medical care and treatment related to the injuries that led to the death.
