Damages In A Texas Wrongful Death Suit
It is important that you ask for all of the damages for which you are due in a wrongful death suit, as you may only get one chance at a full recovery.
People who are likely eligible to participate in a wrongful death suit include the surviving spouse, children, adopted children and parents. If the family does not object or file their own wrongful death suit, the executor of the deceased’s estate may do so.
Potential damages include:
- Lost earnings
- Lost support, advice, care and maintenance suffered by surviving family members
- Pain, suffering and anguish
- Inheritance lost to surviving family members due to an earlier than expected death
- Loss of comfort, companionship and love
Our experienced attorneys will sit down with you and make sure that you are asking for the damages you deserve, and fight for you in settlement or court proceedings to make sure no one takes advantage of you and your family.
Time Limits
It is vital that you contact our experienced lawyers as quickly as possible following a wrongful death, as Texas requires that the suit be filed within two years. Our attorneys are well-versed in the exceptions to this rule, and they are prepared to help you quickly if your two-year deadline is approaching.
