The Florida Wrongful Death Act is contained in sections 768.16 – 768.26, Florida Statutes.
Laws in Florida, and in all states, govern the time frame in which a wrongful death lawsuit may be filed. In Florida, the statute of limitations for a wrongful death action is two years, however, that can change depending upon certain circumstances. Anyone with a potential case should consult an experienced wrongful death law firm to determine what law or laws apply to them.
Wrongful death generally means a lawsuit is filed when the wrongful conduct of a person or entity results in the death of another person. Like personal injury, this area of tort can involve every area of tort practice – from premise liability or auto accidents to dangerous products on the market.

The death of a family member is especially upsetting when it is caused by the careless behavior of another individual. For many people who are mourning the death of a loved one, the thought of taking legal action is far from their mind. However, the unexpected passing of a loved one can often leave families with many expenses such as hospital bills, funeral, and burial costs. You may be able to receive compensation for these expenses along with other damages including compensation of lost wages and emotional distress.
If you have been affected by the wrongful death of a family member, do not neglect your legal rights. Your first step should be to consult with an experienced wrongful death attorney. One of our wrongful death lawyers will help determine, first, who is the personal representative authorized to bring a lawsuit on behalf of the estate of a deceased person against the persons or entities responsible for the victim’s death. If you have lost a parent, spouse, or child in an accident or by wrongful act, you can file a wrongful death claim against the person(s) responsible. The pain and suffering caused by a wrongful death is often unbearable and it can take several years for a family to recover from the tragedy.
We understand that when a loved one dies, a wrongful death claim is frequently the last thing on anyone’s mind.
It is not until much later that the family members have the time and ability to consider the possibility of a wrongful death claim. As a result, in some cases, the investigation does not begin until months or years later. Proving a wrongful death claim often requires reconstruction of the incident, the use of highly skilled expert witnesses, strong investigative techniques, and having the necessary skill and experience to stand up to the defendants. You should consult with an experienced wrongful death attorney immediately. Do not delay. Call us now at 407-777-7777 to tell us what happened or email us here today. We look forward to hearing from you.

“The Benenati law firm makes you believe that you are the single most important PERSON (not case) to them. Throughout the entire process, they maintained weekly contact with me, asking how I was doing or if I needed anything. I was provided with frequent updates as to how my case was progressing and was pleasantly surprised with the speed at which they were able to reach a substantial settlement. I've had the unfortunate experience of dealing with other well-known personal injury attorneys in Orlando who were unable to provide the level of expertise, care and service that Walter Benenati and his team can!”

“My experience with the Benenati Law Firm in Orlando was a great experience. They helped right away after a heartbreaking experience at another law firm. THEY MADE MORE PROGRESS IN MY CASE IN TWO MONTHS THAN 2 YEARS WITH MY FORMER LAW FIRM. I am so grateful.”
