Wrongful Death

A “wrongful death” occurs when a person dies due to the negligence or misconduct of another individual, company, or entity. Wrongful death cases may arise because of a variety of incidents, including car accidents, work-related accidents, and medical malpractice. Compensatory damages for a wrongful death include compensation for loss of society and companionship, medical and last illness expenses, funeral expenses and pecuniary damages, such as lost of income and support. Punitive damages may also, in some instances, be awarded.

An action for wrongful death may be brought by the personal representative of the deceased person or by the person to whom the wrongful death damages belong. Typically, wrongful death damages belong to the decedent’s immediate family member, such as a spouse, child, parent, or sibling. The Attorneys at Tlusty, Hittner, Kennedy, and Freeburg, S.C. analyze and advise what wrongful death damages are available in each particular case and who is entitled to receive those damages.

As with any other personal injury claim, Wisconsin law provides specific procedures and time limitations for bringing a wrongful death action. Compliance with these procedures and time limitations is best made by a personal injury attorney experience with wrong death actions.
