A: The representative allowed to bring a wrongful death suit is defined by the state. In some states, it may be only a spouse and children. In other states, grandparents or other relatives may also be allowed to bring a lawsuit. Some states have enacted restrictions on filing when one family member would be suing another family member for the wrongful death of a third family member.
If you have lost a family member to what you believe is a wrongful death, contact our the office of Attorney David M. Benenfeld to see how we can help.
