Who are the survivors that have a right to be compensated for a Wrongful Death?
The laws of each state identify the persons entitled to compensation for a wrongful death. It is common for the list of survivors to include the spouse and minor children of an accident victim. Sometimes the definition of minor children includes persons older than 18. It is also common for the survivors to include the parents of a minor child. In addition, some states may also extend the claimants to grandparents, legal dependents, or members of the extended family.
