Understanding Wrongful Death In Washington State (FREE REPORT) [PDF] FREE REPORT
The accidental or unintentional death of a person that is caused by the conduct of another party may give rise to a “wrongful death” claim. A wrongful death is one where a person dies due to the unlawful conduct of another person (even if unintentional) or entity. The unlawful conduct can be intentional (e.g., assault or murder) or unintentional (i.e. negligent or mistake). Not only can an individual person be responsible for causing a wrongful death, but so can a corporation or governmental entity can as well. When a wrongful death occurs, the law permits the surviving relatives of the deceased to recover certain types of damages against the responsible party. Read the entire report to learn more.
