Who Can Sue for Wrongful Death in Arizona?

In Arizona, you can sue for compensation if your spouse, parent, or child were killed due to somebody else’s negligence. In certain cases, if there is no surviving spouse, parent, or child, a personal representative for the estate can file a suit.

Not every untimely death can be considered “wrongful.” Common causes of wrongful death include:

• Car accidents that were the fault of the other driver
• Truck accidents
• Motorcycle accidents caused by another vehicle
• Nursing home abuse
• Bicycle accidents where the cyclist was struck by a motor vehicle

If you have any questions about your ability to file a wrongful death claim, the experienced team of lawyers at our firm will be more than happy to answer them during a free consultation.

Why Should You Hire an Apache Junction Wrongful Death Attorney?

Insurance agents are more interested in protecting their company’s bottom line than fairly compensating you for the death of your loved one. When you hire our attorneys, we know how to fight to get you all the money you deserve after the loss of your loved one.

Here are the ways we help you get maximum compensation:

• Gather evidence to prove another party’s negligence caused the death of your loved one
• Negotiate with the insurance company to get the maximum settlement to which you’re entitled
• Go to trial, if necessary, to fight for the money you need to cover expenses related to your loved one’s death

How Much Money Is a Wrongful Death Case Worth in Apache Junction, AZ?

Every wrongful death case is unique since each death affects a family differently. For example, if a stay-at-home parent who relied entirely on their spouse’s income to raise their children lost their spouse, they might be entitled to more money than a financially independent adult child who lost their parent.

That said, we handle every case with individual care and attention and fight to give you every dollar you are entitled to as the surviving spouse, parent, or child of somebody who was killed by another party’s negligence. Our free comprehensive case evaluation will tell you how much your case may be worth, and we’ll put our 99% win rate to work in your favor.

Survival Actions vs. Wrongful Death Claims in Arizona

Wrongful death claims allow a family to seek money for things like emotional anguish, funeral expenses, and other losses directly tied to the loss of the deceased person. 

Arizona law also allows a family to file a survival action, which is for expenses the deceased would have been entitled to if they had lived. These damages typically include medical expenses incurred prior to their passing and lost wages. 

Statute of Limitations on Survival Actions

Note that survival actions have a much shorter statute of limitations, and you must file a claim within one year of your loved one’s passing.

An experienced wrongful death lawyer in Arizona will be able to tell you whether you can file a wrongful death suit, a survival action, or both. Our comprehensive evaluation during your free consultation goes over all the damages you may be entitled to.
