Who is Entitled to Recover Money in Orlando Wrongful Death Litigation
A lot of times people will ask us in a wrongful death situation whose entitled to recover money if we bring the lawsuit. A lot of times that depends on the type of case, it depends on if the person left a will, and it depends on some other probate factors. We can sit down with you and the family and go over all of that and discuss your options with you. A lot of times there are what are called statutory survivors that the law sets forth. For example, if a person passes away and leaves a surviving spouse, a lot of times the surviving spouse is entitled to recover. If the person that passed away does not a have a surviving spouse, sometimes their children or even their grandchildren are allowed to recover. If you have questions about those sorts of issues, call me, Nathan Carter at Colling, Gilbert, Wright, and Carter, 1-800-49-LEGAL.
