Tort Law and Wrongful Death Claims

It can be incredibly painful to lose someone you love, especially when you know that somebody is clearly to blame. In many cases, the amount of evidence is not enough to prove that they are irrefutably guilty of your loved one’s death. In other cases, the sentencing of the criminal court may not be a fitting punishment for the wrongdoer. In these instances, fighting for a wrongful death conviction may be the best way to get your loved one the justice he or she deserves.

Tort Law

Tort law concerns civil wrongdoing, rather than criminal wrongdoing. As such, the burden of proof required for a wrongful death suit is only the preponderance of evidence, rather than proof beyond reasonable doubt. This means that it is often far easier for a family to win a wrongful death suit against a defendant than it is for the state to win a criminal conviction.

Additionally, a wrongful death claim can be pursued in conjunction with a criminal case. When a company is responsible for a person’s death, a wrongful death claim is the only legal recourse.
