Wrongful death is caused by an individual, company or entity’s negligent, reckless or wrongful action. Product failure, malfunction of a manufactured item or distributed medication can all cause wrongful death. For people between the ages of eighteen and fifty-five, the leading cause of death is not disease or illness. In fact, the leading cause of death for this age group is unexpected and sudden accident. A suit for wrongful death may be filed when a person dies as the result of someone else's negligent, reckless or intentional act.
