Levy County Wrongful Death Lawyers

Whittel & Melton, LLC attorneys in Bronson, FL, are ready to represent your family after a sudden loss due to negligence. In such cases, you can bring a lawsuit in Florida court when another person, people, or a company causes a death. This action is called “wrongful death.”

To clarify, the negligent act can be any reckless conduct. Notably, the conduct may result from an individual or a corporation, such as a hotel, hospital, car, or drug company. Under Florida law, the law grants monetary compensation for wrongful death to the “survivors” of a deceased party.

It is worth noting that this compensation resembles that given to someone injured by a simple act. However, the key difference lies in the damage analysis; death impacts differ significantly from car accidents causing back injuries.
