What Constitutes Wrongful Death In Pennsylvania?

A wrongful death occurs when a person dies due to the wrongful act, neglect or unlawful violence of another. The following elements must be proven to establish a wrongful death claim:

  • Duty of care: The defendant owed a duty of care to the deceased.
  • Breach of duty: The defendant breached that duty through action or inaction.
  • Causation: The breach of duty directly caused the death.
  • Damages: The death resulted in quantifiable damages, such as medical expenses, funeral costs and loss of income.

These criteria ensure the claim is valid and the responsible party is held accountable for their actions.

Compensation For Wrongful Death Under Pennsylvania Law

Families who file a wrongful death claim in Pennsylvania may be entitled to various forms of compensation, including:

  • Economic damages. This can address financial losses such as medical bills, funeral expenses and lost wages.
  • Noneconomic damages. These cover the emotional impact, including pain and suffering, loss of companionship and mental anguish.
  • Punitive damages. In cases of gross negligence or intentional harm, these damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar conduct in the future.

The compensation you obtain can provide the financial support your loved one would want you to have.
