Losing a loved one to natural causes can be hard enough on a family. But having a loved one unnecessarily taken from you because of the negligence or carelessness of others can be overwhelming.

Wrongful Deaths occur in many forms, including but not limited to:

• Automobile, Motorcycle, and Truck Accident Crashes;
• Medical Errors by Doctors or other medical professionals and healthcare providers;
• Prescription Errors;
• Inadequate Security on Private Property (where the property owner or business owner is aware of a known criminal element, and does not take the necessary steps to ensure the safety of others);
• Unsafe or Dangerous Material Conditions on Private Property;
• Inadequate Supervision at a Pool;
• Unsafe or Defective Products;
• or any negligent or careless actions that cause the unnecessary death of another.

Florida law allows for the decedent’s surviving spouse, children, or parents to bring a wrongful death action when the death of the person is caused by a wrongful act, neglect, or default. The damages these family members may seek on behalf of their loved one that was a victim of a wrongful death may include:

• Funeral and burial expenses.
• Medical expenses.
• Loss of financial support of the decedent.
• Loss of future earning potential of the decedent.
• Loss of companionship.
• And in some cases, what is known as Punitive Damages.

Punitive damages are monetary damages that may be awarded through civil litigation against the “at fault party” with the intent to punish the wrongdoer in order to deter any repeat of the actions that caused the wrongful death.

An individual does not have to be charged with a crime in the death of another for a wrongful death civil litigation case to be brought against the at fault party. Additionally, if a person is charged with a crime for the actions that caused the death of another, he or she may still be found liable in a wrongful death civil litigation case, even if he or she is found “not guilty” in a criminal trial. That is because the burden of proof in a criminal case is “beyond a reasonable doubt”. In a civil litigation, the burden of proof is whether a preponderance of evidence exists that the actions of another caused or directly contributed to the wrongful death.

At The Law Offices of Peter A. Shapiro & Jonathan D.

An auto accident is known by many names, such as an automobile accident, motor vehicle crash, or car collision, just to name a few. Regardless what it may be called, the results are often the same. Auto accident victims are often left with various types of physical injuries, property damage, must endure one or more surgeries and extensive physical therapy, not to mention being subjected to lost wages due to missed time from work.

On a daily basis we see the hardships injury victims go through as a result of the negligence or carelessness of others. We aggressively fight for auto accident victims in an effort to ensure they are fairly compensated for everything they are entitled under the law.

Depending upon the specific circumstances of an auto accident and injury case, the victim may be entitled to seek compensation and damages for:

• Injuries as a direct result of the accident or incident;
• Lost Wages;
• Medical Bills;
• Pain and Suffering;
• Permanent or long-term loss of quality of life;
• And when there is a loss of life, families may also seek compensation in a wrongful death case.

When injured in an auto accident you should first seek medical attention, and then seek experienced legal counsel prior to speaking to any insurance company or adjuster. Your rights must be protected. You should also be mindful that any comments made to anyone other than your attorney may be used against you by an insurance carrier in an effort to reduce the amount paid or to deny an auto accident insurance claim.
