You may be able to file a wrongful death claim to recover damages

Did you lose a loved one because of someone else’s careless, negligent, or even criminal actions? Our Kansas wrongful death lawyers can help.

Losing a loved one in an accident is something that no family ever wishes to go through. In virtually all wrongful death cases, when the action or inaction of another person or party directly leads to the death of another, the family of that victim is entitled to bring wrongful death action against the negligent party to collect damages.

Collect Damages With a Kansas Wrongful Death Attorney

If your loved one was killed in an accident, you may be able to file a wrongful death claim to recover damages for:

  1. Funeral/burial costs
  2. Medical expenses
  3. Loss of income
  4. Pain and suffering, and other economic and non-economic damages

Many people ask us “Is there a limit to how much money I can recover?” The answer to this question is both yes and no. If you wish to file a wrongful death case, you will likely be claiming losses both economic and non-economic. An example of economic harm would be medical bills, as these are tangible and quantifiable.

An example of non-economic harm would be “pain and suffering” which, while felt probably more bitterly than even the financial harms, is not tangible or easily quantifiable harm. Our experienced Kansas injury attorney at Pyle Law can evaluate your case to find out the maximum non-economic and economic damages you can claim after the death of your loved one. victim's close one seeking help for Kansas wrongful death attorney at Pyle Law

According to Kansas Law: Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit?

Kansas law allows “any one of the heirs at law of the deceased” to file a wrongful death claim in court. In most wrongful death cases, this means that one of the following individuals will likely file the wrongful death lawsuit:

  1. the surviving spouse
  2. any surviving child or children
  3. the surviving parents or grandparents, or
  4. the surviving siblings of the deceased person.

Because the surviving family members are typically the parties to whom damages are paid — to compensate them for the economic and emotional effects of their loss — it is most common for these individuals to file the wrongful death claim in court.

Although there are a variety of people who might be entitled to bring a wrongful death claim, they must file together because only one action can be brought against a Defendant for the death of any person.
