What Damages Can My Family Recover in a Green Valley Wrongful Death Claim?
Under A.R.S. § 12-613, a jury may award damages it considers fair and just based on the harm a wrongful death caused eligible surviving family members. The damages available depend on the circumstances and may address both economic and non-economic losses.
Some of the losses your family may be able to recover include:
- The deceased’s lost future income and employment benefits
- Medical expenses incurred between the time of the injury and the time of death
- Funeral and burial costs
- Loss of love, companionship, and guidance
- Loss of household services the deceased provided
- Emotional pain and suffering experienced by the surviving family members
If your loved one was killed in a traffic collision, our Green Valley car accident lawyer can investigate the crash and identify the responsible parties.
The Arizona Constitution generally prohibits laws that limit damages recoverable for personal injury or death. The potential value of your claim will depend on its specific facts, and our wrongful death attorneys will work to ensure every eligible loss is properly documented.
