The wrongful death of a loved one caused by an accident or medical malpractice will be a traumatic event for the entire family. A wrongful death cause of action allows the beneficiaries of the Estate compensation for their pecuniary loss due to the death of the family member. Typically, the pecuniary loss is the loss of income from a working parent and spouse. In addition, wrongful death actions allow compensation for the loss of parental guidance to the surviving children, loss of a future inheritance, and funeral expenses.
Before commencing a wrongful death claim in New York, an Administrator for the Estate must be appointed; usually a spouse, child, or sibling. All Wills should be located for the decedent as soon as possible.
Strict time limitations exist to commence an action for wrongful death. An action may depend upon who is injured, who the potential defendant is, as well as the enactment of new laws and judicial decisions interpreting the law. Computing the time limitations is not a simple matter and a person should promptly consult an experienced New York wrongful death lawyer once he or she suspects wrongdoing.
