At The Law Office of David Craig Sheldon, we investigate the cause of the loss and take appropriate action on your behalf.

If your loved one survives the careless act of another for a period of time and then dies, she has a survival action and wrongful death claim. It is important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible or the opportunity to recover damages may be lost forever should you fail to file your claim in a timely manner.

Who can file a wrongful death claim?

Ohio wrongful death actions, governed by these statutes – RC 2125.01 and 2125.02 – state that the surviving spouse, children and parents of the deceased can bring a wrongful death action. If next of kin want to also recover damages, they must testify at a trial but the immediate family members do not need to do so.

We strive to achieve justice against those who have caused the untimely death of your loved one. Personal injury attorney David C. Sheldon is committed to recovering compensation for all damages available in Ohio, including:

  • Loss of financial support
  • Loss of services
  • Loss of society of the deceased – companionship, love and affection, care
  • Loss of prospective inheritance to the heirs of the deceased
  • Mental anguish

The amount a jury can award is not capped by statute because the Ohio Constitution prohibits caps in wrongful death cases.
