Fort Lauderdale Wrongful Death

Fort Lauderdale is a Florida city that is popular with tourists and visitors because of its beaches, golf courses, restaurants, galleries, and other attractions. Fort Lauderdale is named after Major William Lauderdale, who started building a series of forts in the area during the Second Seminole War. Today, the city is known for the Downtown Riverwalk, Butterfly World, Gulfstream Park, and other attractions. Fort Lauderdale boasts many amenities as well as many exhibits, museums, and points of interest. From walking along the beach to watching thoroughbred racing to just relaxing, Fort Lauderdale offers much to see and do. The nearby Everglades also attract thousands of visitors each year.

While deaths occur every day in Fort Lauderdale, when those deaths are caused by negligence or someone's recklessness, the effects can be devastating. It is normal for families who are facing this type of situation to feel angry, confused, and upset. Having a death caused by negligence is often especially galling because these types of deaths are often preventable. Whether death is caused by a Fort Lauderdale car accident, motorcycle accident, medical malpractice, or another type of injury, in many cases, these types of deaths can result in a Fort Lauderdale wrongful death claim.

Under Florida law, a wrongful death claim allows immediate family members to recover the sum of the costs associated with an accident. For example, immediate family members may be able to recover compensation for final medical costs, funeral expenses, as well as compensation for pain and suffering through a Fort Lauderdale death wrongful death claim. For many families, this compensation is essential in order to help give the family the financial resources needed to move forward. The money can be used to ensure that family members receive counseling and the money can be useful in replacing the lost income of the family member who has passed away.

While losing a loved one is stressful enough, in many cases it also results in financial distress. If a deceased loved one was an income earner, the family may be suddenly facing final medical expenses as well as decreased income.
