Q: Attorney Tully,I saw online that the decedent’s family can get money for the “pecuniary” losses they suffered in a Wrongful Death case. What does that mean?


A: Good question. Pecuniary losses include the value of services the deceased would have given to the family if she had lived. Services include the loss of “comfort and society” of the deceased. This means the psychological and Emotional loss suffered by the family of the deceased. When someone is wrongfully killed, the law tries to make the family whole by compensating the family for the guidance, solace and protection the deceased would have provided had she lived. Our office does Wrongful Death cases on a no recovery/no fee basis. Call me.
