Florida law establishes that when the death of a person is caused by the wrongful act or negligence of another, a family member can sue on behalf of the deceased. At Carey Leisure Carney, we’ll provide professional and empathetic representation during this difficult time and seek justice on behalf of your loved one.
Wrongful death cases can result from a car accident or from premise liability. Regardless of the cause, we will seek recovery for the following:
- Direct Expenses: Medical bills and funeral costs.
- Loss of Benefits: The amount the deceased could have received a pension or retirement.
- Loss of Future Earnings: The amount the deceased would have earned as a salary.
- Loss of Companionship: Emotional support the deceased would have provided in a relationship.
- Pain and Suffering: The emotional effects of losing a loved one.
- Punitive Damages: An amount designed to punish the negligent person if applicable by law.
