A wrongful death -- one that was caused by someone else's unlawful actions -- is especially hard for the families who must carry on.

In Pennsylvania, there are two potential claims when an individual dies as a result of the negligence of another. The two types of claims are a Wrongful Death claim and a Survival Act claim. One claim is the deceased's claims he or she would have had if they would have lived. The other claim is for losses suffered by family members such as a spouse, dependent children, and parents of the decedent who are entitled to recover under the law.

Recoverable damages related to Wrongful Death/Survival Act claims may include:

Hospital and medical care
Funeral and burial expenses
Compensation for the income the deceased would have provided in the future

The law in this area is very complex; it is sometimes difficult to assess the damages due to their intangible nature. If you feel that someone close to you has suffered a wrongful death due to the negligence of another, seek the advice of Hagelgans & Veronis.
