What Is Wrongful Death?
A wrongful death is defined as the loss of life of a person due to another person’s actions. These actions can be intentional, pre-meditated, or unintentional, but the fact is that a life has been lost because of another’s actions. Wrongful death cases have no connection to criminal action, so even if the defendant is cleared of the crime, the victim’s loved ones can still file a wrongful death civil action lawsuit.
