Tallahassee Wrongful Death Attorney
Milles Law has successfully pursued wrongful death actions in both federal and state courts against some of America’s largest corporations. Was your loved one a victim of negligence that you believe may have caused death? If so, then it is important to consult with a Tallahassee wrongful death attorney. Wrongful death lawsuits have strict time limitations. These cases may also require the filing of a separate action in probate court to establish an estate for the decedent.
What Is the Statute of Limitations for Wrongful Death in Florida?
You must bring an action for wrongful death in Florida within two years from the date of death. A wrongful death action must be brought by the decedent’s personal representative, who shall recover for the benefit of the decedent’s survivors and estate all damages caused by the injury resulting in death.
A wrongful death lawsuit in Georgia may be brought by a surviving spouse. If there is no surviving spouse, the children may bring the death claim. If there is neither a surviving spouse or surviving children, the parents of the decedent may pursue the wrongful death claim. Absent a surviving spouse, surviving children, and surviving parents, the administrator of the decedent’s estate can sue on behalf of the estate.

The hiring of an attorney is an important decision. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our experience and credentials.
For profit private lawyer referral “services” (such as 411 Pain) ask victims of Tallahassee car accidents, Tallahassee truck accidents, and Tallahassee motorcycle accidents to call them without disclosing anything about the credentials of the lawyers that they will be referring you to. Moreover, the not so catchy jingles of lawyer referral services such as 411 Pain may hurt the public’s perception of victims of personal injuries, personal injury lawyers, and the medical professionals who treat persons who have been the victim of negligence.
