When a person's death is caused by the wrongful act or negligence of another, whether the other be a negligent driver, doctor, property owner, corporation, or other, the person or entity responsible may be sued for money damages. The suit is brought by the administrator of the estate for the benefit of the surviving spouse, children, parents and other next of kin of the deceased person.
What Damages May Be Recovered?
The responsible party is liable in money damages for loss of support, services, society, companionship, care, assistance, guidance, counsel, instruction, training and education provided by the deceased, together with damages for mental anguish, loss of inheritance and the cost of funeral and associated expenses. These damages vary with the circumstances of each family but often are in excess of $1,000,000.
Are There Other Benefits for Surviving Spouses or Children?
Yes. If the deceased person qualifie s, there are benefits available to widows and children through your local social security office. If the deceased was excused from payment of social security taxes by virtue of employment with a government agency, similar benefits are provided by the public or school employees retirement system. If the deceased person was on the job at the time of injury or death, his widow or children can qualify for substantial death benefits from the bureau of workers compensation.
