What Is a Wrongful Death Claim in Texas?

A wrongful death occurs when another person or company’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions lead to someone’s death. These cases can arise from:

• Vehicle accidents
• Truck or commercial vehicle crashes
• Workplace or industrial accidents
• Medical negligence
• Defective products
• Unsafe property conditions
• Violent acts

Texas law allows immediate family members to file a wrongful death claim to seek compensation and hold the responsible party accountable.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?

In Texas, the following individuals may take legal action:

• Spouse
• Children
• Parents

If these family members do not file a claim within a certain period, the estate’s representative may do so on their behalf.

Compensation Available in a Wrongful Death Case

Although no amount of money can replace your loved one, compensation can help your family stay financially stable and secure. Damages you may recover include:

• Loss of financial support
• Loss of companionship, care, and emotional guidance
• Mental anguish suffered by surviving family
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Medical costs related to the fatal injury
• Loss of household services
• Potential punitive damages in cases of extreme negligence
