Under Florida law, you may be able to file a wrongful death claim in order to bring the responsible party to justice for their actions. From the responsible party's insurance company or from other resources, you may be able to recover financial compensation for medical expenses, funeral costs, the loss of income from your loved one, and emotional damages as well. There is no way to put a price tag on someone's life, but receiving monetary compensation can help ensure that your family is protected in the future.
