      For most of us, we never think about this type of tragedy.  Unfortunately, statistics bear out that a substantial number of people die each year for reasons which may involve negligence.  That could be a driver violating motor vehicle laws, like speeding or driving under the influence, or a physician making a mistake resulting in death.  If something like this happens to one of your loved ones, you need to know a few critical things about legal issues relevant to that death.
     
          The first thing to understand is the two primary civil claims involved with a death due to negligence (or even intentional acts, which would likely also involve criminal prosecution).  A "wrongful death" cause of action is brought by and for those relatives of the person who died.  It meant to compensate those who were in some way dependent upon the person who died, and who now suffer damages due to the person's death.  For example, the children of a now dead parent or the spouse of the person who died.  If the person's death brought harm to the loved one, that person has standing to prove (by a preponderance of the evidence to a jury) the negligence of the one who caused the death.  They must also show the negligence was a proximate cause of the death, then prove the damages the loved one has suffered due to the death....    Click Here To Read The Full Article on Medical Malpractice from The Bill Connor Knowledge Base
