Who may file a wrongful death claim in Phoenix?
When an individual dies in Arizona from a wrongful act, neglect, or default that would have entitled the deceased to personal injury compensation if they had survived the incident, certain family members can seek compensation through a wrongful death claim. Those who may file the claim include the deceased's spouse, surviving children, or surviving parent. Additionally, the named executor of the deceased's estate can also file the claim if there are no surviving family members.
