Common Causes of Wrongful Death
While any injury can result in a wrongful death, some of the most common causes of fatal accidents are:
- Vehicle accidents, including car accidents and truck accidents
- Slip and falls
- Catastrophic injuries, including traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries
Proving Negligence in Nashville Wrongful Death Cases
Tennessee requires that two primary elements are present in any successful wrongful death lawsuit:
- A human being’s death was brought about because of the willful or negligent disregard of someone else
- A loss of love, care, guidance, supervision, comfort, household assistance and general social structure established beforehand to a great degree by the one now departed
How to Establish a Wrongful Death Case
The recovery of both economic and non-economic damages is a right available to the family members of wrongful death victims. Economic damage include the lost income from the deceased family member, medical expenses and funeral costs. Non-economic damages can include things like the emotional loss experienced by loved ones.
