A:The value of a wrongful death lawsuit depends entirely on the amount of damages (losses) sustained by the deceased and their family. The heavier your losses, the more compensation you are entitled to. For instance, if the deceased was the primary bread-winner for their family, then their income (both present and future) can be considered a loss. If the deceased required medical care before their passing, then those expenses can also be considered as damages. No attorney can guarantee a specific amount for a wrongful death case, but our team at Dodd & Kuendig can promise to fight for every penny you and your family are entitled to.
