What is wrongful death?

When a family loses their loved one because of someone else’s negligence, Tennessee law allows them to file a wrongful death claim. That claim offers a chance to hold the liable party accountable for their actions and seeks to provide some compensation for the family. The compensation can cover funeral and burial costs and provide some financial support for families who lost a breadwinner.
