What Constitutes a Wrongful Death in Alabama?

Under Alabama law, a wrongful death occurs when an individual’s life is taken due to the wrongful act, omission, or negligence of another party. Common scenarios that may lead to a wrongful death claim include:

• Car Accidents: Reckless or impaired driving leading to fatal crashes.

• Medical Malpractice: Errors such as misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, or medication errors.

• Workplace Accidents: Unsafe conditions or equipment failures causing fatal injuries.

• Defective Products: Faulty or dangerous products leading to fatalities.

If your loved one’s death was the result of negligence or misconduct, you may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. At Simmons Law, we’ll help you determine whether you have a case and guide you through every step of the process.

Compensation in Wrongful Death Cases

In Alabama, wrongful death claims are unique in that they focus on punitive damages rather than compensatory damages. The purpose of these damages is to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar conduct in the future. While no amount of money can replace your loved one, pursuing a wrongful death claim can provide a sense of justice and help prevent others from experiencing a similar loss.
