The law provides for florida wrongful death and survival actions to protect certain family members in these terribly unfortunate situations..
The following wrongful death information is based on Florida law. It is best to consult an attorney about how wrongful death actions are handled in your state or the state in which the injury occurred.
Wrongful Death Action. A wrongful death action may be brought by the decedent's (the deceased person's) spouse, children or parents for money lost because of the death. Outside of the deceased's spouse, children, or parents, no other relatives can bring this action. In a wrongful death action, the amount of money that can be recovered amounts to the monetary loss suffered by the family members who are now deprived of that part of the deceased's earnings that they would have received if the person had lived. These beneficiaries may also recover money damages for hospital, nursing, medical, funeral and estate administration expenses that they had to pay because of the injuries that resulted in the deceased's death.
Survival Action. In a survival action, the deceased's personal representative stands in the place of the deceased for purposes of a lawsuit. In other words, when a person is injured by someone else's negligence, the injured person can bring a lawsuit. If the injured person dies, death doesn't take away the cause of action or claim. The cause of action survives the death of the injured person and continues in the personal representative. The survival action simply continues the right to sue and recover money for such things as pain and suffering and lost earnings that the deceased had before he died.

Who will pay for my medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering?
What money can I get right now to help me?
What papers should I sign or not sign? Do I need an attorney?
