Compassionate Attorneys Help Families of Wrongful Death Victims in Orange, Plainfield and Surrounding NJ Towns

Unfortunately, accidental deaths are one of the leading fatality causes in the U.S., according to the National Safety Council. A fatal accident occurs every five minutes in this country. Based on the New Jersey Wrongful Death Act, accidental death is considered a wrongful death when the fatality is due to another party’s negligence, misconduct or recklessness.

The New Jersey Wrongful Death Act exists to financially assist the heirs and dependents of the deceased. The victims’ families will typically file lawsuits based on financial loss, such as medical and funeral expenses. There are several other types of compensation the family can seek including:

1. Pecuniary damages – If the wrongful death victim was also the family’s primary financial provider, this compensation will help the family adjust after a wrongful death occurs.
2. Survival actions – These laws provide the family with financial compensation for emotional distress and suffering related to wrongful death.
3. Punitive damages – These suits seek to punish malicious acts by the party or parties at fault.
