Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit in Texas?
After a fatal accident, the state of Texas allows the following parties to file a wrongful death lawsuit:
Surviving spouse
Children
Surviving parents
An executor or administrator for the deceased’s estate
Texas does not allow siblings, extended family, or unadopted stepchildren of the deceased to file a wrongful death lawsuit if the spouse, children, or parents are still alive. Wrongful death cases can be complicated, but John has a proven track record of success, and the whole team is ready to help.
