Daytona Beach, Florida (CaymanMama.com) — Personal injury cases can be some of the most complex legal matters to handle. Those involving wrongful death are considered extremely complicated because it is not feasible to place monetary value on the loss of one’s life. Orlando personal injury lawyers Rue & Ziffra, P.A. is helping those with questions about the value of their wrongful death case, by providing information on how courts determine what legal damages are in these types of claims.
Making a Determination
Making a determination of what one’s wrongful death case is worth involves analyzing several factors. These include both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages are those related to financial support and earnings. Non-economic damages relate to emotion based or non tangible loss. Types of economic damages include loss of support for children or a spouse, or services provided by the deceased.
Non economic damages may include loss of love, protection, or companionship. Courts may take one or both categories into consideration when determining the award for a loss. Punitive damages may also be included in a calculation if malice or negligence was a contributing factor to one’s death. As a general rule, only heirs of the victim of wrongful death are eligible to file this type of claim. In many states, legal compensation for the wrongful death of a child or elderly individual is relatively low, due to their perceived low economic or other contribution to their family or society in the eyes of the law.
