At Sarkisian Law Offices, we work to protect the rights of the survivors. Our family is here to help yours.
Practice Areas
A death can be defined as “wrongful” when a person’s negligent actions caused a tortious injury that resulted in another individual’s death.
A claim for wrongful death damages can only be brought forward by the victim’s close relatives, also called survivors. This includes the victim’s spouse, children, or other close relatives who can be considered a dependent of the victim.
A wrongful death claim must be filed within a certain period of time after the victim’s death. The statute of limitations in the state of Indiana is generally 2 years from the date the incident occurred.
