What is a Wrongful Death Claim?
In Washington State, a wrongful death claim can be brought when someone’s death is caused by the negligence, recklessness, or intentional act of another person or entity. Common causes of wrongful death include:
- Auto Accidents: Fatal car crashes due to reckless driving, drunk driving, or distracted driving.
- Medical Malpractice: A doctor’s failure to provide the proper standard of care leading to fatal outcomes.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim in Washington?
Under Washington State law, the deceased’s spouse, children, or parents may file a wrongful death claim. In certain circumstances, other family members may be eligible to file. Our attorneys can help you determine who is eligible to file on behalf of your loved one and ensure that your family’s rights are protected throughout the legal process.
What Damages Can Be Recovered?
