On average, 155 people in the United States die each day from TBI-related injuries. If a fatal brain injury was caused by the negligent actions (or inaction) of another person, the surviving family members might be entitled to pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim. Wrongful death laws vary by state; however, the administrator (or executor) of a person’s estate is generally entitled to file a lawsuit on behalf of a decedent’s heirs or beneficiaries.
