Wrongful Death

Experienced Kentucky Wrongful Death Lawyers

When your family member or loved one has been killed due to the negligence of another, Kentucky law allows the decedant’s estate to recover damages. Generally, damages for wrongful death are limited to burial expense and the destruction of the decedant’s power to earn money. However, there may also be medical bills and other losses that can be recovered. When a minor child is killed, Kentucky law allows each parent to make a claim for the loss of the child’s affection and companionship. Kentucky law also allows a minor child to make a claim for the death of a parent.
