Wrongful death occurs when a person is killed due to the negligence or misconduct of another party. Those who were dependent on, or a beneficiary of, the deceased individual may be entitled to monetary damages. Wrongful death claims commonly arise from car accidents, truck accidents, and construction accidents.
