✅ What Is a Wrongful Death Case in New York?

A wrongful death lawsuit arises when someone’s negligent, reckless, or intentional act causes another person’s death. Under New York law, the personal representative of the deceased’s estate can file a civil claim for damages on behalf of surviving family members.

This is not just about compensation. It’s about accountability. It’s about making sure this never happens to another family.

👨‍👩‍👧 Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in New York?

In New York, only the personal representative of the deceased’s estate can bring a wrongful death claim — usually a spouse, child, parent, or court-appointed administrator.

Don’t wait. Time limits apply. The statute of limitations for wrongful death in New York is typically 2 years from the date of death — and in some cases involving municipalities, you may have only 90 days to file a claim notice.
