Damages Our Law Firm Recovers for Your Family
Understanding the types and amounts of wrongful death damages your family can request in Hobart is complex. Damages can vary greatly depending on whether the decedent is a minor or an adult and whether or not they are married.
In general, the damages you can recover will include:
- Your loved one’s related medical bills
- Your loved one’s funeral and burial expenses
- The loss of your loved one’s financial contributions
- The loss of your loved one’s love and companionship
When we take on your case, our goal is to fight for the best possible outcome for you. Certain types of damages may be subject to caps or limitations. Our wrongful death lawyer will explain all possible damage caps and how they apply to your case.
The Timing of Your Hobart Lawsuit Is Important
The loss of a loved one can leave your family reeling. While you cope with the emotional aftermath and your family’s changed circumstances, we focus on building your case. Time is an important part of trusting our law firm with your case because it prevents the statute of limitations from running out.
In Indiana, you generally have two years from the date of a loved one’s demise to file your wrongful death lawsuit, according to IC § 34-11-2-4. If your lawsuit is not filed within the allotted time:
- It cannot be filed with the court at all
- It will be dismissed without being heard
We fight hard to avoid these negative consequences of filing your lawsuit too late. With sufficient notice from you, our team will ensure the statute of limitations is accurately interpreted and complied with.
Indiana Law Is on the Side of Surviving Family Members
An unexpected loss affects every member of the decedent’s family. Indiana allows the following family members to bring a wrongful death action against the at-fault party:
- Parent
- Legal guardian
- Child
- Spouse
- Sibling
Our lawyer will review and clarify familial relationships and explain which family members are allowed to seek damages. We also explain any circumstances that might allow other family members to recover damages.
