Frequently Asked Questions About Wrongful Death Claims
According to Ohio law, surviving family members are entitled to seek damages in wrongful death cases. This typically includes spouses, children, and parents of unmarried children.
Recoverable damages may include medical and funeral expenses, loss of income and future retirement benefits, loss of love and companionship, loss of household services, loss of inheritance, mental anguish, pain and suffering of the deceased prior to death, and in some cases, punitive damages against the negligent party.
In Ohio, the statute of limitations for wrongful death cases is generally two years from the date of death. It’s crucial to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you don’t miss any important deadlines.
Common causes include car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, defective products, and premises liability incidents.
The value is based on various factors, including the deceased’s age, earning capacity, life expectancy, and the circumstances of the dependents left behind. An experienced attorney can help assess the potential value of your case.
