Potential Damages in a Wrongful Death Action
In wrongful death cases, the damages sought can vary widely depending on the circumstances surrounding the death and the relationship of the claimants to the deceased.
Economic Damages
These damages cover quantifiable financial losses, including:
- Funeral and burial expenses: Costs associated with the final arrangements of the deceased.
- Loss of financial support: Compensation for the income and benefits the deceased would have provided the family had they lived. This might include wages, pensions, and other financial contributions.
Non-Economic Damages
These are more subjective damages that encompass the emotional impact and loss experienced by survivors, including:
- Loss of companionship: Compensation for the loss of affection, companionship, love, and comfort that was provided by the deceased.
- Loss of guidance: For children, this may include the loss of parental guidance that the deceased would have provided.
- Suffering and grief: Damages awarded to the family for the mental suffering, emotional distress, grief, and sorrow endured due to the sudden loss of a loved one.
Punitive Damages
While not awarded in every case, punitive damages may be granted to punish the responsible party for particularly egregious behavior. These damages aim to deter similar conduct in the future and are awarded in cases of gross negligence or intentional harm.
