A wrongful death claim will serve to hold the person or corporation accountable for the loss of your loved one. It will also serve to compensate your family for their loss. And while we know that money will never replace the love, care and support that you received from your loved one, and it will never fill the void that has been left in your life, it can serve to hold the offending party accountable for the death of your loved one.

Loss of Consortium Claims

If your parent or loved one died due to carelessness, neglect or abuse, you may have a claim for wrongful death including the loss of consortium. The term “loss of consortium” refers to the emotional sadness or depression that a person can experience when an immediate family member (spouse or children) have been injured or killed – and loss of consortium claims are compensable rights. These claims compensate for:

the loss of society, affection, comfort and care you received from your loved one
