The Illinois Survival Act allows a family member of a deceased person legal routes to file a claim for damages to compensate them for the harm and suffering caused by the wrongful death. One may be entitled to receive compensation for their medical expenses, bills, funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages, especially if your lost loved one was the main earner of the family. Our experienced wrongful death attorneys will help you understand your rights and will fight aggressively on your behalf.
