Arizona law limits the filing of a wrongful death lawsuit to certain surviving relatives.
These include:
Any qualified person could have the right to recover for their losses. Occasionally, several family members could be involved in a claim. If there is a dispute, the court may determine who is eligible to file a claim or how damages will be distributed.

Criminal homicide and wrongful death are both based on a terrible loss, but the legal routes could not be more different:
“Beyond a reasonable doubt” is the standard of proof in criminal court, while “preponderance of the evidence” is the standard of proof in civil court.
Both can happen because of the same event, but only a wrongful death case can help the family get money.
At Thompson Law, we help families understand these differences so they can confidently file valid cases. Give us a call right now for a FREE CASE EVALUATION, and we’ll help you.

In Chandler, fatal accidents have occurred at intersections with high traffic volumes, confusing signs, and unpredictable drivers:
If you or a loved one has been involved in a fatal accident at one of these intersections, our experienced team is here to help you navigate your case. We understand that these incidents cause physical and emotional pain and make it difficult to get the compensation you deserve.
The time it takes to get a settlement depends on many factors. Below, we break down the wrongful death process and what to expect during your case.
In the beginning, our team works hard to gather all the evidence, including accident reports, medical records, and witness statements. A thorough investigation is key to proving liability and building a strong case. This phase can take several months.
Once we have all the facts, we can start negotiating with insurance companies and other liable parties. Many wrongful death cases settle out of court. Some settlements can happen quickly – within a few months – while others may take a year or more.
If negotiations stall, your case may go to trial. The process includes filing a lawsuit, discovery, and pretrial proceedings. Litigation can add a lot of time to your case, sometimes extending the timeline well beyond a year. However, our skilled attorneys strive to streamline the process and meticulously attend to every detail, ensuring a successful outcome.
The wrongful death process also depends on state laws and local court systems. Statutes of limitations, mandatory mediation sessions, and court calendars can all impact how long it takes to resolve your claim.
At Thompson Law, our wrongful death attorneys are committed to fighting for the maximum recovery you deserve and guiding you through the process.
We know that no settlement can bring your loved one back, but a timely resolution can help with financial burdens and closure.
Our team has a proven track record of efficiently handling complex wrongful death cases by using our knowledge of state laws, meticulous case preparation, and strong negotiation skills. We keep you informed every step of the way and work hard to get a settlement that reflects the full value of your loss.

The existence of pre-existing health conditions does not automatically bar you from filing a wrongful death claim. Courts carefully examine whether the negligent party’s actions accelerated or contributed to your loved one’s death. Even when health issues were already present, you can still pursue compensation if the fatal injury would not have occurred or would have taken longer to occur without the accident.
Family disagreements can make the decision process challenging; however, state laws typically designate a personal representative (often the surviving spouse or next of kin) to file the claim on behalf of the estate. In cases where family members disagree, mediation and legal counsel can help resolve conflicts.
Yes. A wrongful death claim is still valid if a death occurs weeks or months after the incident as long as the accident is directly linked to the eventual fatality. Medical complications that arise due to injuries sustained in the accident can create a strong basis for a claim.
Generally, life insurance policies and wrongful death claims are handled separately. Life insurance proceeds are paid out according to the terms of the policy and are typically not impacted by a lawsuit. However, every case is unique. Thompson Law’s legal team will review your situation in detail to ensure that filing your wrongful death claim does not interfere with any independent benefits or insurance coverage you may have received, giving you peace of mind throughout the process.
When a family member is allegedly responsible for the wrongful death, the case may involve additional complexities such as issues of comparative fault, emotional disputes, and conflicting interests. Despite these challenges, the law still permits a wrongful death claim if negligence or wrongful conduct can be clearly proven to have contributed to your loved one’s death. Thompson Law is experienced in handling sensitive cases of this nature and will work to ensure that your claim is evaluated fairly regardless of familial relationships.
Thompson Law charges NO FEE unless we obtain a settlement for your case. We’ve put over $1.9 billion in cash settlements in our clients’ pockets. Contact us today for a free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your accident, get your questions answered, and understand your legal options.
