Greenspoon Marder, P.A., focuses in protecting the rights of victims injured by the neglect of others and serious accidents. A wrongful death claim is a statutory cause of action that may be brought on behalf of a surviving spouse, children, and parents of the deceased to compensate them for the losses sustained as a result of the wrongful death of their family member. A survival claim is a statutory cause of action brought to recover damages sustained by the decedent for personal injury. The claim survives death in favor of the heirs, legal representatives, and estate of the injured person. The claim also survives the death of the person liable for the injury.
