For example, in instances of medical malpractice, evidence of malpractice may not be found immediately for any number of reasons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In instances of wrongful death, the family of the victim may seek restitution for the harm caused by the loss of their relative. However, if one waits too long to file a lawsuit for a wrongful death, sometimes it can result in the case being out of the court\u2019s hands and the victims being left without appropriate restitution. Affected parties in a wrongful death case only have a set amount of time to seek damages through legal means\u2014this is known as the statute of limitations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In a wrongful death case, victims only have a designated amount of time before they can no longer seek a lawsuit. However, there are several steps you can take to navigate the legal process and<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonwhitelaw.com\/az-personal-injury\/blog\/arizona-wrongful-death-statutes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> seek damages for a wrongful death<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Understanding Wrongful Death, Medical Malpractice and Statute of Limitations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are several instances where a wrongful death case may call the statute of limitations into question. Medical malpractice is one of the most common reasons for a wrongful death that may call into question the statute of limitations. However, there are other situations where fault for wrongful death may come to light later, like if a product turned out to be defective.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Medical Malpractice<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Medical malpractice is the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonwhitelaw.com\/az-personal-injury\/services\/negligence\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">act of negligence<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, infliction of harm, misdiagnosis, or surgical errors by doctors and other healthcare professionals, resulting in the injury of a patient. Many cases of wrongful death that call into question the statute of limitations arise due to an undiagnosed or improperly diagnosed condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the state of Arizona, there is no cap on the damages you receive from successfully suing a dangerous doctor or hospital. Other instances that can be grouped under medical practice can include anesthesia accidents, errors in cosmetic surgery, or nursing home abuse or neglect.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wrongful Death<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A wrongful death is considered a death resulting from medical malpractice or other situations in which the death could have been prevented by a specific party or entity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Other potential examples of wrongful death cases can include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An injury from a product that was found to be defective and resulted in death<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A dog attack or wounds from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonwhitelaw.com\/az-personal-injury\/services\/arizona-dog-bite-laws\/\">dog bites<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Accidents at work due to negligence<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A fatal car accident that resulted from road issues or negligence from the city or county<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An aviation accident that resulted in a fatality due to equipment failures or negligence<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Typically, a wrongful death suit is sought after when the justice system has failed or is not even attempted on behalf of the deceased. However, the statute of limitations could possibly hinder or outright prevent you from receiving damages for the mistakes or crimes of those who caused the wrongful death. So what exactly does the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">statute of limitations<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> mean?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Statute of Limitations\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The statute of limitations are specific laws in place that set the maximum time after a crime has been committed that one can initiate a lawsuit or legal proceeding. If this set amount of time has passed, one may not be able to file a lawsuit or engage in legal proceedings related to the crime or event that occurred.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Statute of limitations laws exist so that a resolution can happen within a reasonable amount of time. This time frame varies from state to state and country to country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if a crime has been committed, why should there be a limit on when you can seek action? For terrible things like sexual assault, sometimes survivors don\u2019t speak about their trauma for a long time. It feels like we\u2019re giving a criminal the benefit and an injustice may be happening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Statutes of limitations exist because it can be difficult or even impossible for someone to defend themselves years after the date in which they were accused of committing a criminal act. Memories and evidence become less credible and reliable over time as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Also, statute of limitations exists to provide detectives and prosecutors impetus to close a case quickly and respect one\u2019s right to a speedy trial. The motives of trying to prosecute after such a large amount of time has passed can be a little shady too. Mostly, statute of limitations exist to protect the concept of \u201cinnocent until proven guilty.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What Damages Can Be Recovered From a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As outlined by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azleg.gov\/ars\/12\/00613.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A.R.S. 12-613<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, in a wrongful death case, a jury may award damages as it deems fair and just by taking into account the harm caused by the person\u2019s death to any surviving family members.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These damages should also factor in any mitigating or aggravating circumstances surrounding the wrongful act. Damages can include financial compensation for any of the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Medical expenses<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Funeral and burial costs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Compensation for lost income earnings<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonwhitelaw.com\/az-personal-injury\/blog\/how-much-money-should-i-get-for-pain-and-suffering-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pain and suffering<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Punitive damages from the negligent party<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The damages awarded will also not be subject to any debts or liabilities of the deceased unless the action is brought on behalf of the decedent\u2019s estate. Any money awarded by the court is directed to the benefit of the surviving family members.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Statute of Limitations for a Wrongful Death in Arizona<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azleg.gov\/ars\/12\/00542.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A.R.S. 12-542<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the statute of limitations for a wrongful death, injuries that caused death, medical malpractice, or medical negligence is two years after the death of the victim in the state of Arizona. This limitation period can be tricky depending on the circumstances and may also change in the future. Therefore, it\u2019s helpful to have the support of experienced and qualified legal counsel to understand whether the statute of limitations applies to your case and what options you may have to circumvent them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What can I do after the statute of limitations has passed?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If the statute of limitations has passed, with very few exceptions, you may be unable to take your civil case to court in or outside Arizona. If you try to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonwhitelaw.com\/az-personal-injury\/blog\/file-wrongful-death-lawsuit-arizona\/\">file a lawsuit<\/a> against a hospital or doctor for medical malpractice resulting in a wrongful death after the statute of limitations has passed, the defendants can easily convince a court that proceeding with the suit violates the law and the case could be immediately dismissed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, if you are willing to apply your finances and energy into trying, there are exceptions to consider and steps you can take when the statute of limitations has passed. The support of a skilled personal injury attorney can help you navigate the process and give you the best chances for bringing the case to civil trial and receiving financial compensation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In some cases, there is also the possibility that the statute of limitations begins not at the time of death but at the time of the discovery of evidence that the death was wrongful. For example, if a person passes from medical malpractice, the two-year window may begin at the point where the family discovered that medical malpractice was involved rather than from the time of death. Consulting an attorney will help you determine the best path forward.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Discovery Rule<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the statute of limitations for wrongful death by default begins with the death of the victim, sometimes something called the \u201cdiscovery rule\u201d can come into effect and extend the statute of limitations to file a lawsuit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The discovery rule is an exception where the statute of limitations does not begin until the injury or evidence of medical malpractice is discovered or \u201creasonably\u201d discovered. \u201cReasonably\u201d can be a somewhat loose term in the case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If a court decides that there is evidence or reason to support the idea that one had every reason to know of medical malpractice occurring or that the victim\u2019s death was clearly a wrongful death, the case could be dismissed if the statute of limitations has passed and there will be no chance of furthering the case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, if evidence of medical malpractice or a wrongful death may be found long after the death of the victim and a court decides this is legitimate, you have two years after the discovery to take legal action or continue legal action.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Steps to Take in the Wrongful Death Legal Process<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you suspect a loved one\u2019s death may be due to the negligence of someone, you should take these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Seek legal counsel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u2013 Find a good medical malpractice or wrongful death attorney. A law firm with a good track record of winning such cases is ideal. Law firms will usually offer a free consultation of your case. From that, you can see if you realistically have a chance at proceeding with a case.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Gather evidence \u2013 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Be sure to gather any and all evidence you may have that can prove that not only your loved one\u2019s death was a wrongful one or a result of medical malpractice but also that you discovered the wrongdoing within a specific time frame. Be as detailed as possible and trust your lawyer\u2019s guidance through the case.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At JacksonWhite Law, we offer free case reviews that will provide you with a better understanding of what you can expect from a wrongful death case, and whether or not you have a strong case moving forward.
