Who Can File a Wrongful Death Suit?
Under Florida law, the survivors of the decedent—or the accident victim who died—may be entitled to compensation. Survivors are defined as a decedent’s:
- Children
- Spouse
- Parents
- Blood or adopted relatives dependent on financial support from the decedent

What Damages Can Be Recovered?
Florida’s Wrongful Death Act regulates the damages a survivor is able to claim in a wrongful death lawsuit. Depending on the details of a decedent’s death, survivors may be able to make a claim for damages, such as:
- Funeral expenses
- Future financial support
- Loss of income
- Medical bills
- Pain and suffering
Consider seeking legal representation that can help get you the compensation you are owed. At John Bales Attorneys, we have years of experience helping survivors cope with tragic events, and we may be able to help you, too.
