Wrongful death occurs when someone dies as a result of the negligence or intentional actions of another person or entity. This can include a wide range of situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and more. When a wrongful death occurs, the surviving family members may be able to file a lawsuit to seek compensation for their loss.
In Colorado, laws have been put in place to protect the rights of those who have experienced the wrongful death of a loved one:
- The state allows surviving family members to file wrongful death claims and seek compensation for their loss.
- Colorado has laws that limit the amount of time a family has to file a claim, known as the statute of limitations.
- Colorado law also allows for punitive damages to be awarded in cases where the defendant’s actions were particularly egregious.
These laws are in place to help ensure that families receive the justice and closure they deserve after experiencing such a tragic loss.
Some common causes of wrongful death include:
- Car accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Workplace accidents
- Defective products
- Nursing home abuse and neglect
In Colorado, the surviving spouse, children, or parents of the deceased person can file a wrongful death claim. If none of these individuals are alive or able to bring the claim, then the estate of the deceased person can file the claim.
In Colorado, compensation for wrongful death cases can include economic damages such as:
- medical expenses
- funeral expenses
- lost wages
Non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and emotional distress may also be available.
